I'm playing through Dishonored now. There seems to be a lot of similarities to Assassin's Creed, but it has it's own character. I expected it to be like the Elder Scrolls games because it was published by Bethesda but I guess I was wrong!
Is this good with keyboard controls or should I stick with a console version?
The upcoming Omega DLC for ME3 has me really excited as a ME fan. The adjutants will finally be showing up (Reaper-modded Salarians), who were supposed to be there from the beginning but were omitted because they broke the physics engine. I guess they finally solved the problem or just changed their behavior from the original idea.It'll be cool seeing Omega again. The biggest thing however is getting Aria in your squad and finally (---finally---) getting a female Turian squad member....
Shouldn't be the only thing that gets you excited as a Mass Effect Fan!http://www.polygon.com/2012/11/9/3621642/a-completely-new-mass-effect-game-is-in-the-works

The only thing that seems to be known about it thus far is that it's not going to be directly related to the current Shepard trilogy. Also apparently someone at BioWare offhandedly mentioned the main character "wont be a soldier" which upset some people. Frankly that's welcome news to me, since I thought ME3 was too Gears of War and not BioWare-ish enough.Am I excited? Sure. I can't help it. However I'd say more than excitement, I'm feeling skeptical. Mass Effect 3 was a tremendous disappointment (not just the ending either, but the entire game). Ever since BioWare became another head of EA's corporate hydra, their quality has started to shrivel up faster than someone's erection after seeing Lemon Party. They're just not the same company that made ME1 and ME2 (the latter which was released after the acquisition but still mostly completed prior to their absorption, similar to Dragon Age: Origins in that respect). Not at all surprised they'd continue to milk the franchise. It is quite popular, after all. Now that most of the original team responsible for the Shepard trilogy has left, replaced in large part by corporate EA drones, I think there's a strong chance the series is going to take a nosedive straight into the pavement. Trying to not get my expectations up too much as a result. I'd rather be pleasantly surprised than bitterly disappointed as I was with ME3.

Trying to not get my expectations up too much as a result. I'd rather be pleasantly surprised than bitterly disappointed as I was with ME3.ME2 was my favourite of the trilogy. The ME1 story was the best, by far, but some of the mechanics in the game prevented me from enjoying it. ME2 felt a lot more polished from a gameplay standpoint, and the whole "recruit a crack team to defeat evil!" story line was super fun for me.ME3 was still a great game in my opinion, but I agree that ME1 and ME2 were much better. DA:Origins was infinitely better than DA:2, but I still think DA:2 is the more 'polished' game overall in terms of gameplay mechanics.A buddy of mine is a project manager for EA and he says the company is just toxic on the inside - everyone is jaded and people who enjoy their job are far and few between.
