Well, that's only if its efficient and economical. The manipulation of the image was both. I see no issues with what they did.
But I, that am not shaped for sportive tricks

I, that am rudely stamped, and want love's majesty
To strut before a wanton ambling nymph.

I went on a couple of sites to see who was saying the game sucks and all I found were a bunch of homophobic reviews from idiots. Really?

You are high. An important side character with a large following doesn't even get their own original design, just a poorly photoshopped picture of a model from some random website. You know her reveal was also crucial to the mystery of her race, right? Were you expecting something unique and interesting like the bulky, hump-back Krogan or the avian Turians? lol too bad, you get a normal white girl with three fingers. They couldn't even give her a unique skin color like the Asari.

It's blatant laziness and corner cutting. This should not be acceptable

The only bad reviews I've found for this game are from homophobes with bad grammar.

You clearly never had to create something for profit and under a deadline, have you?

Bob Eggleton discussed this (through me) in the Godzilla comic thread: when you have a deadline and you're working for money, you do what you have to do. There's a deadline and things need to be done by then.

Oh don't give me that. Bioware has the time, creativity, budget and talent (though I find myself doubting this one) to make a decent reveal picture for a mysterious race.

Didn't seem much like a big reveal. Seemed like something you'd walk by without noticing. So...I wouldn't waste my budget on something so minuscule on the grand scheme of things.

Nice retort.

Anyway...

Well, that sucks. Good thing I've never played any of these games before.

Anyone else wondering why Biollante has so much shit to say for a game they clearly have no desire to play?

That's fine. But how about a source? Can't take something to court without convincing evidence, am I right?

Not really, man. Sometimes people rip on thing for the sake of ripping on them. If that's what Biollante is doing, then it's perfectly fine with me. I've given up arguing with people who do that. I'll just reserve my opinion until I actually play it.

I'm not really butthurt. In fact, I find this whole fiasco hilarious

The thing is that I love gaming, I'm just bothered by people having such an "oh well" attitude for almost any AAA title that can do much better. The amount of apologist in this thread is very disappointing.

Supporting the laziness of devs such as Bioware will only run gaming into the ground. We have enough issues with Call of Duty games poisoning the industry as is.

My source is how thousands of people post-leak hate it yet the "critics" happen to love it. Are you going to tell me only the critics know how to appreciate Mass Effect?

The only people I have seen that hate it are the unintelligent people on Metacritc. So that's your "source"? lol.

Ignoring the homophobic trolls, there's quite a few negative post on meta critic that make a good point. There's also Something Awful, Reddit and 4chan's videogame board etc.

Okay the last one isn't intelligent...But they're sensible enough to tell when a dev dropped the ball. Not sure how Neogaf feels about the game.

I never implied only critics can appreciate a game. But I am asking for definitive, undeniable proof that these critics are being paid off. I don't point fingers until I know the facts, friend. That's why I asked for proof to begin with.

You want proof? A game written by Mac Walters got a 10.

Okay. That's better. I thought you were citing the trolls as your source.

Oh, well. I still think the game is great.

Excuse my ignorance. I have no idea who that is. Regardless, I don't think that's quite what I'm looking for.
