With just over a week left to wait for the second part in BioWare's sci-fi epic , Mass Effect, people are understandably getting anxious to get their hands on the game. When I was playing the game this weekend (like Reiner, I'm not bragging, promise!), I got an incredible number of upset and jealous messages from people on my friends list. While I sadly cannot offer up my copy of the game for all of you to play, I can point you toward two new videos about it courtesy of BioWare.

First up is part one of a five-part "Art of the Game" series featuring BioWare lead concept artist Matt Rhodes explaining how they design the universe of Mass Effect, alien and otherwise.

If story is more your thing, watch part one of a four-part SyFy special on storytelling in Mass Effect 2. Be warned, though: This clip does contain some minor spoiler scenes from the game.

So after checking out the videos, are you even more hyped up for Mass Effect 2? Me too! Why, I think I'll go play it right now.... Whoops, sorry, not bragging.
