Mass Effect 3's Box Has A Surprise

  • Very awesome. I don't think I'll switch it to female Shepard, but it's nice to have the choice.

  • Yeah i agree, not a big deal, whoopee do you can change the front cover, in a bout 2 months no one is going to care about the cover of a box. The thing that I'm sad about its only on 2 discs.....i was kinnda hoping for 3 or 4.
  • Ok.

  • That's cool. But I prefer Male Shepard and 2 discs is enough.

  • I dont see why people cry about online passes. Especially if you plan on buying the game new, anyway. Whether you like it or not, they are going to make their due recompense for their work. Its not done overnight, or for free. Maybe if you were a game developer (or had an iota of intelligence) you would understand that it is a business. Not a service. Game looks awesome!! I cant wait!
  • Well thats cool. But neither of those are my Shepard.
  • It's nice that they spent the extra money to give their fans the ability to display the Shepard of their choice.  As a side note, I'm not sure why so many people are taking issue with this...it's not like it affects YOU at all.  Display what you want...no one is making you reverse the cover.

  • I would never put that crappy fem shepard as the cover of my game. I'd rather generic dude shepard. Too bad though, since my shepard is a chick and all.
  • I really hate the fact that a lot of games do not come with manuals anymore. They have ruined one of the best time honored traditions in video gaming and its a shame.
  • this is cool but does not matter to me since i have the N7 edition and it comes with them both on each side of the box

  • I'm getting the N7 Collector's Edition, so I don't think this really affects me.

  • thats pretty cool

  • That's pretty cool of them to include that. Can't wait for this freaking game, been playing the demo to death.

  • Well, I like it. And I'll prolly switch the cover too :P

  • Finally the femshep people that whine and complain all the time can shut up.

  • I won't be switching it, but it's cool that they did this for the Femshep fans.

  • I think I'll have it reversed since I play the female character.
  • That is cool for people who like femshep but I will keep it on male shepard on my copy on my copy of mass effect 3

  • Nice. Guess I don't need the Collector's Edition after all to get both Shepards.

  • This is the best game with kinnect support.
