If a movie was made set in the mass effect universe and done like this but still separate yet connected like the novels and comics, it'd be so EPIC. A ridiculously good sci-fi hit (if done correctly)
@SirValor1177 It is called a rally point. When you have a large military unit that is spread - you often set up rally points to organize, recon, and plan. Now, I do find it silly - if it was a rally point - it was so close to earth, though.
@Schism704 I like to think that the devices worked on some sort of wavelength or worked friom some satelite or structure that was destroyed/disrupted when the Reapers entered the atmosphere and crashed down.
@isurugi In fact, I even recall a conversation inside the game where Shepard talks to EDI asking why the reaper looks human and EDI says they must make the Reaper look like it's parent species and just put a shell around it. From a game design stand point it would be extremely tedious to draw a thousand different reaper models. That's why they put a shell on them.
@KoHaVOK In the Fall of Earth Trailer, the voice says 'the fate of our world, of EVERY world, is in his hands'... So, yes, the whole galaxy is under attack, or about to be under attack.
@BoydofZINJ I don't think the reapers would be at all worried as to whether the Alliance knew they were there or not, seeing as it took the entire 5th fleet just to bring down Sovereign.
Now that was pretty excellent. I think those who have said a Mass Effect film could not be done might have to reconsider that standpoint. I mean, if BioWare/EA could pull that off with a modest budget for a PR video, then imagine what could be done with major studio dollars. Have to admit, I'm just surprised they didn't go with *another* Blur trailer. Don't get me wrong, those guys are Gods when it comes to CG, but live action takes me back to those awesome Command and Conquer days.
@TheRozza333 I personally don't think they will reveal what quarians look like. Now don't get me wrong, I love Tali, but because she showed her face to Shepard but not the "camera" in Mass Effect 2 it wouldn't be quite as exciting if they did it now. It also adds to the mystery.
... good thing I have time to rebuild my Shepard from ME1 to ME2 (lost data due to formatting HDD). Note to self: Finish preorder for the N7 Collector's pack ASAP.
I dout they will make a mass effect movie about shep. Cause everyones game is different from choices to looks. If anything they'll make a movie which is in same time period or during the first contact wars or origam rebellions
@the3idiotsfrommars Actually, out of morbid curiosity, clicking on the preview reveals that it's just a medical doll. Still, it's like playing "Which of these things does not belong" with the recommendations sidebar...
The most unique thing about this game, to me, is that while this is hardly the first science fiction game to have you try and save Earth and humanity from extinction by a technologically superior force, this is the first game where you can actually loose Earth and humanity in order to save the rest of the galaxy! Its going to be a long 3 months. Thankfully I have The Old Republic to keep me company :D
This is 6 June **2285**. It cannot be '86 or '87, because out of the several likely years, only 2285 has June 6 falling on a Monday. I am unhappy because I do not like drawing attention to the fact that there is something important which others may not have noticed, in case I make them annoyed. I find myself with no choice but to mention it however, because you would not believe how many people are milling around arguing and wanting to know which year Mass Effect 3 takes place in.
Ah yes, "Episode 3". A separate installments into which a serialized story or radio or television program is divided. I thought we dismissed that claim with the Gaben Reapers
@SpiderTobeyMaguider Excuse the typo, but yes I think I know what you're saying. Such humanoid aliens are extremely unlikely but they are necessary to fit a narrative that appeals to a large audience. I've pondered creating a fictional universe myself and I couldn't shake the conclusion that realistic aliens would be extremely obscure and hard to sympathize with.
I have the PS3 version of ME2 and I love it I played ME on my friends 360 about three years ago yet I still cany figure out ehy ME2 was release on the PS (not that Im complaining) But I have always wondered what made Bioware make the decision to do so. Was it popullar demand? Money? Anyone know the answer?

I love Live-Action Trailers for video games, because they always look so badass and leave me jonesing for a movie.
This has got a heavy c&c cutscene vibe to it. It's awesome.
0:29 Lovely reference to the 'Ah yes 'Reapers'' guy in ME2
"I really wouldnt lend any credence to mythical warshi- ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL!"
"OH NO! RUN!"
I hope there is an option where Shepard says, "I told you so."
@Renshato The fleet they referenced above Europe was the Earth fleet preparing for defense.
1:28 Is that a blade coming from his omni tool? This is gonna be good.
notice how the scanner don't flash over Norway at 0:55. Nothing EVER happens up here

This proves that a mass effect movie would be freaking incredible.

@Zpetsnazi there gonna show part of the mass effect movie at comic con its been in development for a bit now
@Enryakuji12 i appreciate that you took the time to figure out the year, but the date you posted is 100 years after the date ME2 occurs.
@Byrnzi360 Cerberus's against us in ME3, in fact, the ones you kill in the E3 demo are Cerberus people, so I don't think so... xDD
@KoHaVOK In the Fall of Earth Trailer, the voice says 'the fate of our world, of EVERY world, is in his hands'... So, yes, the whole galaxy is under attack, or about to be under attack.
@VideoHeadII Because sentient beings got translators implanted mate, you can hear it being referenced in the games several times.
@VideoHeadII There's voice translators. It's brought up in ME2
Reminds me of District 9. Dear ME3, please release sometime withing the next couple hours.
That was awesome, more live action please.
@BoydofZINJ I don't think the reapers would be at all worried as to whether the Alliance knew they were there or not, seeing as it took the entire 5th fleet just to bring down Sovereign.
@sgtsmith501 its not on june 6th
@xinlo When talking to Thane, Thane says something weird and Shepherd responds with something along the lines of "Is my translator acting up?"
@levitan71 you didn't notice the scene with the Golden Gate Bridge >.> in America last I checked
@MissingMandible yup, wonder how it feels?.
Was the first news caster the father from Even Stevens? Awesome!
I CAN'T TAKE THIS WAITING ANY LONGER!! I neeeed to play mass effect 3!!!!
@Kitchwamon lol no I really know him, he is a small time actor, he was in Flags of our father.
@SalemParadox ...It's Sheploo.
they should make a movie of all th mass effects
@HusKaR08 Well, Casey Hudson is going to reveal something regarding a Mass Effect movie on comic-con! :D
hey hello, 3 years without comments !
mass effect would make a kick-ass movie
@StephanieAnn851 Yes they do, his daughter marries into another family. And the "Shepard" line starts.
@MissingMandible
I think it might be because they have 'invasion' in the tags...

This trailer is so sick, this is even better then Battle of LA!
@lGxtmXl i hope you have the option of using air quote "reapers"
... good thing I have time to rebuild my Shepard from ME1 to ME2 (lost data due to formatting HDD). Note to self: Finish preorder for the N7 Collector's pack ASAP.
This needs to be in the game!
At 1:19 A Thanx Cannon shot should go through the reaper followed by the Normandy flying past.
Great, now can we have this extended by another hour and a half please?
@bmwandcadillacftw didn't you see them at the end of ME3?
@JuliusLjungberg I thought we had dismissed that claim?
funny how the .mp4 is still there
@eji313 have u never seen "the tuxedo" movie? yeah the style is old but underneath it...
Can't wait for the actual mass effect movie
CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS GAME!!!!
i've never played a mass effect game but i might buy this one
@MissingMandible maybe it's because one of the tags are "reapers" :/
Mass Effect 3: This time it's personal.
@isurugi The shells all look the same, the actual reaper inside the shell looks different.
It's funny, I've watched this video before but I never really thought of it as "this is what the Mass Effect movie might look like!" until now.
Classy of them to get Crabcat involved.
@VideoHeadII They don't have the TARDIS in france
I dout they will make a mass effect movie about shep. Cause everyones game is different from choices to looks. If anything they'll make a movie which is in same time period or during the first contact wars or origam rebellions
Isnt the guy in the beginning the dad from even stevens?
dam thats one hell of a debut ....
@SoulOfTheGeneration
well, Falling Skies premieres soon, June 16 or somthing on TNT, LOL
@DanSickEntertainment they are making a movie =)
where can I get one of those holographic knives?
@SoulOfTheGeneration If it were, I'd assume it were Battlestar Galactica, or maybe Doctor Who.
@HusKaR08 they are making one
@the3idiotsfrommars Actually, out of morbid curiosity, clicking on the preview reveals that it's just a medical doll. Still, it's like playing "Which of these things does not belong" with the recommendations sidebar...
bout time they make a movie of mass effect
@LightningEidolen I answered that very same question earlier. Please go look for it.
They should have mentioned Shepard's on going trail too, that would have been great :)
wow, this is how I always wanted the invasion on earth to look like
heh, on the maps that appear, you can see how the sea levels have risen over the past hundred and fifty years.
@Terrorist12341 you really want to know? They use the 'Find' command.
make a full length movie already
The most unique thing about this game, to me, is that while this is hardly the first science fiction game to have you try and save Earth and humanity from extinction by a technologically superior force, this is the first game where you can actually loose Earth and humanity in order to save the rest of the galaxy!
Its going to be a long 3 months. Thankfully I have The Old Republic to keep me company :D
cant wait to play it =3
@mynameisjuan84 ehh battle la was a mindless action movie wich was pretty cool proper term is its better than skyline
@fishworshipper you do know you're saying he's born in a location call "Sheparde"......
they are here...
@LFfilms There is no USA in the ME Universe.
This is 6 June **2285**. It cannot be '86 or '87, because out of the several likely years, only 2285 has June 6 falling on a Monday.

@VideoHeadII
You obviously did not notice the German news reporter then, maybe the Japanese one, How about the Italian? No?
@gungho95 Dang. So you have to choose to either save Earth or the Galaxy? You can't save both?
holy crap that was amazing
@Joeki11a good question but I am interested in them ;)
Ah yes, "Episode 3". A separate installments into which a serialized story or radio or television program is divided. I thought we dismissed that claim with the Gaben Reapers
Well what do you know, The Even Steven's father is the news caster in the future.
looks so real...
Oh god. JJ Abrams is making Mass Effect 3.
@Scydow And why is that?
@SpiderTobeyMaguider Excuse the typo, but yes I think I know what you're saying. Such humanoid aliens are extremely unlikely but they are necessary to fit a narrative that appeals to a large audience. I've pondered creating a fictional universe myself and I couldn't shake the conclusion that realistic aliens would be extremely obscure and hard to sympathize with.
Husks look freakin scary in live action!
@TheRozza333 I googled quarian and got a pretty good image of their face.
Who's that guy at the end of the trailer wearing FemShep's armor?
I have the PS3 version of ME2 and I love it I played ME on my friends 360 about three years ago yet I still cany figure out ehy ME2 was release on the PS (not that Im complaining) But I have always wondered what made Bioware make the decision to do so.

We only warned the council and earth 40595060539 times repeatedly.
@XxROFLgUYx145
you should buy the first and the sceond one since they are so cheap now (like 5 euros each)
I want shepard to be able to speak to the council in ME3 and say: "I fucking told you so!"
Everyone forgot this is going to be on Origin ONLY?
Saving Earth will be fun, but mark my words... If I'm given another chance to save the Citadel Council... I'm not ruling in their favor this time.
@ themetroidprime. My sentiments exactly.
