Mass Effect 3 Has Cut Mass Effect 2 Mission

Content left on the cutting room floor is getting a second chance.

BioWare is giving pushed aside content another chance. A segment that was originally cut from Mass Effect 2, a mission that takes place on the Citadel, will be included in Mass Effect 3. The Citadel had a major role in the ending of the first game.

"That's the nice thing about trilogies," Walters said. "Sometimes you get a second chance. There was a Mass Effect 2 plot that was a kind of callback to the first Mass Effect that was going to be on the Citadel, and we cut it, but now it's made a resurrection in Mass Effect 3, so I'm happy, but I can't say what it is."

Mass Effect 3 will be released on March 6, 2012.

I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite deleted content on The Citadel.

What? I mean, um, someone must have used a third-party recording device to mimic the sound of my voice. Yeah, that's it...

Kid Gloves: When Hand Holding Goes Too Far

As I was moving into the end game of Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, I was tasked with finding three power couplings to unlock a door. It was a simple enough job, but in a game that had been almost entirely a linear affair, I was glad to have the rails taken off if even for a small section. It turned out that this wasn’t the case; any time I got remotely close to one of the power couplings Doktor would chime in on my codec to inform me that I was near my objective. Frowning, I destroyed the coupling and repeated the task with Doktor telling me exactly where to go and what to do. It made me realize just how much game design has changed in recent years, and what needs to be done to combat the need for constant hand holding that game designers have developed.
