MASS EFFECT GALAXY
BioWare’s award-winning Mass Effect franchise expanded this year with the release of Mass Effect Galaxy on the iPhone and iPod Touch for the first time.

Mass Effect Galaxy introduces an in-game animated graphic novel that reveals cool insider information about two of the main characters, both of whom will appear in the upcoming Mass Effect 2 game set to release in 2010 for PC and Xbox 360. In Mass Effect Galaxy, players step into the role of Jacob Taylor, a super-powered biotic soldier on a quest to save the galaxy from alien terrorists. The new combat and narrative wheel interface in Mass Effect Galaxy expertly equip players to defeat the enemies and maintain a delicate balance of power between man and alien. Using its signature tilt controls, players tactically assess a room and dodge incoming fire without any visual impediment. With action on-the-go, anyone can be the next Mass Effect hero!
