  • Well, I'm torn. On the one hand, it's Vega, one of the more shallow characters in the Mass Effect franchise. On the other, it's more Mass Effect. So why not, I'll watch it.

  • I ordered this cheap on blu ray, after that I watched 10 minutes of it. Its....painful.... But I am a mass effect fan so I will be forced to watch.
  • The krogan's voice sounds so stupid. Couldn't they have found someone with a genuinely deep tone?

  • I thought the movie was good. Yeah i guess it could have been better but over all I liked it

  • Odd seeing Mass Effect in anime style, but I can get used to it. Not confident in a Clone Wars writer being involved. . .
  • This still looks like an utter pile.  Ah well, at least it doesn't look nearly as bad as the literal abortion known as Dragon Age:  Dawn of the Seeker.

  • Why Vega? Why anime? So many other choices to off of. Genophage, Rachni Wars, Garrus C-Sec, Sheperd Pre-Specter, Liara, Javik and too many other scenarios to count. Why go this route? I didn't even hate Vega like most people seem to, but there are hundreds of better choices in my book. Will watch it to give it a fair shot.
  • Ah yes, this. Well... I'm not sure what to think on it.

  • The direction this franchise has taken actually angers me. This looks so bad, not only would I refuse to spend a dime to watch it, I won't spend the TIME to watch it if somebody gave me the dime to buy it with.
  • I love that the Mass Effect series continues to hand me reasons to make fun of it.

  • why vega?

  • I love Mass Effect but the art design in this just skews the characters so much...that doesn't even resemble Vega.
  • no one cares about james vega...he was a Dick in ME3
  • i like the Mass Effect universe,but i really dont understand why they chose Vega.. he is the most insignificant char in the series if yo ask me.. and no.. i dont like the fact that Freddie Prinze jr. is the voice of vega either...

    The aniation looks ok.. but it could be better,i think the only plus side of this is the fact that the creators of Ghost in a Shell is in on it.

    But.. im not gonna buy this... if it goes on VOD for 3$ i would considder watching it.


  • Can't stand animes. Love Mass Effect. I'm in a dilemma. :/
  • Why did'nt Shepard blew that ship instead of-- Oh right he WAS BUSY TRIYNG TO ESCAPE A REAPER CORPSE THAT WAS SLEEPING NEAR A SUN FOR 27 MILLION YEARS.

  • Lol, I did write my own ending to me3.

  • Wow, proper failure of voice acting - unfortunately just because it the same studio. Doesn't guarantee the same quality as Ghost in the Shell, if the Director of Standalone Complex isn't involved in the project.

    He such a weak ass character too. Not sure about the art style, something is off with the shading and lighting/appearance which looks like either Produciton IG got lazy or someone put them down the wrong way.

    Its a shame, when you see how well stuff like Ghost in the Shell SAC is and Baccano! or Studio Ghibli,  Paprika and other fantastic animes.  

  • Ah the turd in the pool....will it sink? Eventually...until then I will probably sit back and watch as the disaster unfolds. Should be fun, but only if I'm bored...

    lol also was Vega fighting the collecter general? okay.......xD
  • well, this is unexpected. oh wells.
