Book Impressions: Mass Effect: Ascension

I feel immersed in all things Mass Effect lately.  Aside from playing Mass Effect 2 on the Xbox 360 and playing Mass Effect Galaxy on my iPod Touch, I’ve been reading the Mass Effect: Ascension audiobook.  Author Drew Karpyshyn was the lead writer on the first Mass Effect game, is co-lead writer on Mass Effect 2, and also wrote the first Mass Effect novel, Mass Effect: Revelation.  I read and reviewed that novel.  How does this one stack up?

Mass Effect 2 Release Day

I’m super jazzed today, as it’s Mass Effect 2 release day!  Mass Effect was one of my top games of 2007, and I probably put more than 40 hours into it.  Read the novels… check.  Played the iPhone / iPod Touch game… check.  Read the new comic… check.  Pre-ordered the Mass Effect 2 Collector’s Edition… oh yeah!  Let the gaming begin!
