Mass Effect News, Walkthrough, and Screenshots

Chris Priestly, a Bioware Community Coordinator is asking people to spread the word that Mass Effect on PC has been delayed to May 28. Here’s his message:

I have just confirmed with the development team that we are making a small change to the release date of Mass Effect for the PC. We had previously announced May 6, 2008 for North America. The new release date for North America is May 28, 2008 and June 6, 2008 in Europe.

The team here at BioWare, working closely with the good folks at Demiurge Studios, has decided that a few more weeks in the studio will ensure we deliver the quality that our fans deserve. The additional time will allow us to incorporate more play-testing feedback, add extra polish and tune the additional features so that Mass Effect is a natural and outstanding PC gaming experience.

BioWare and EA are dedicated to excellence. We’re confident that the extra time will be reflected in the final PC experience that we deliver to our fans.

We appreciate your understanding and look forward to delivering a great game!

PC fans shouldn’t mind the slight delay, just pray it doesn’t happen again. Mass Effect is a complicated development and the visually stunning environment needs to be perfect before Bioware/EA will release it.
