Commander Shepard has already saved the galaxy twice, but the final entry in the Mass Effect trilogy could be either the hero's last stand or finest hour. Earth is in jeopardy, entire civilizations are at risk, and we've got all the details. Our latest issue has 12 pages of exclusive info, screens, and art that no Mass Effect fan should miss.

Subscribers should be receiving their issues in the coming days. After you finish reading up, don't forget to keep checking back with gameinformer.com throughout the month, since we'll have plenty of updates delving into Mass Effect 3 and the franchise as a whole.

In addition to explaining Shepard's latest mission, the May issue includes an in-depth look at Spider-Man: Edge of Time, a status report on upcoming Kinect software, and an examination of rumors that Activision might buy Take Two.

While you're waiting, you can marvel at the image you'll see adorning the issue when it's in your hands.

Commander Shepard looks awfully pissed off. I have really high hopes for this game, can't wait for this issue!

Shepard has never looked so determined.
by Something Creative Thursday, April 07, 2011 at 11:07 AM

I have to be honest. I'm pretty disappointed in the cover art. That's one of the less-creative ones I've seen post-redesign. But hey, it's ME3. So the complaining stops there.

Reapers; Earth being destroyed; Shepard facing off. Yup, looks like the third in the trilogy will have the proverbial stuff hit the fan :)

This is freaking amazing! Mass Effect 3 is going to be sick!
by Howdy Berry Thursday, April 07, 2011 at 11:10 AM

I could never get into ME. So for me, I'm disappointed, but I know a lot of people are big fans and they are looking forward to this. The Cover Art still looks cool and I'm excited to see all the other games they cover and review. :)

So its never really mentioned in 1 or 2, or seen, but I am curious how hard/easy it is to put on one of those suits. For the future they seem pretty difficult/clunky to put on.
