Wow, I wasn't following it and didn't expect it to come out so soon.

Some first impressions here.

As much as a story-driven RPG is perfect for the iPhone, it doesn't sound like they've done all they could with it. Still, for £2.99 I would still pick it up if only I could afford an iPhone :D

edit: OK, Artemus and MrED209 obviously read that same article before I posted.

Been playing through it for a while and it is rather good. I like the style. Combat is a little random with the accelerometer, about average I'd guess. As an ME-whore, I'm lapping up the story, it's nothing special but . . . well . . . it's ME :)

**ME SPOILERS**



Both Miranda and Jacob are going to be in ME2. My guess is that Miranda replaces Ashley and Jacob replaces Kaidan depending on who you killed off. Miranda is an Aussie and Jacob has a pretty funky voice. There actually seems to be some hints of a romance in between Jacob and Miranda based on stuff at the end. Companions getting down with other companions? Sounds good to me.

Apho please use the >spoiler< (reversed ) .... tag so that people who want too see optional spoilers can just move mouse over the massive gem of what is a big plot development which you already gave away to anyone who just scroll down to read the next posts!

Not too late if you edit your post and add the tag.... please?!!

@AphoticCosmos : Thanks, saved me 2.99 :)

ME2 is something I am really looking forward to. Lost days to the original;.
