Making of Mass Effect 3’s “Take Earth Back” trailer
After The Walking Dead aired on AMC last night, Electronic Arts ran a TV ad for Mass Effect 3. It was called “Take Earth Back” and seems to have been designed to appeal to gamers as well as non-gamers. If you’ve played the demo then you know you have three options at the start which […]

The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings on the Xbox 360
