    wow, is that all!?
    gonna be a freaking awesome game, but im still left a little deflated.
    the graphics dont seem that impressive, especially after how the original came out and blew everyone away, then 2 came out and impressed even more!
    ME2 was one of the best looking games of its time!
    ME3 though sadly looks really outdated.
    not that it really matters, gameplay and story are FAR more important!
    but its nice to have your cake and eat it too, especially when the baker is known for a particular thing and am not delivering on it.
    its like ferrari releasing a super fast car but it being super ugly.
    ferraris have never been the best looking cars, but certainly not ugly so you would expect some grace!
    same goes for ME3, and yet im just not seeing it.
    i actually struggled to see the difference between ME2 and 3 at the expo last october.
    yea its early code, but still come on bioware you can do so much better and you know it!
