Greetings Soldiers

You have reached this news article either after browsing our forums, reading a Press Release, seeing one of your friends Facebook status updates or you happen to follow the right people on twitter. The bottom line is, no matter how you arrived at this very post, you're here because hopefully you're living in Cape Town and love playing Mass Effect... right?

Right!

We are bringing you a fantastic opportunity to come together with 30 other die-hard Mass Effect loving gamers to an all exclusive Mass Effect 3 gaming-launch session on launch day! On Friday the 9th of March 2012, from 17h30 for 18h00 - 22h00 at the MWEB HQ.

A huge thanks to the guys here at MWEB Gamezone, Samsung South Africa for the stunning TV’s and of course to the good folks from EA South Africa for providing the titles and for making our gaming area that we have dubbed the M-Cave all pretty with Mass Effect paraphernalia. Adding to this all exclusive event there are bound to be a few more partners providing cool stuff for you to get your grubby little paws on but I don’t want to let the cat of the bag and ruin any possible surprises for launch day!

    very good question [sBR]Capt_Ark.RG. As this is the 1st attempt at multiplayer from them I would not invest to much hope in it being the next big multiplayer title of choice. Have you tried out the co-op in the demo? Its fun, but not mind blowing.. who knows, maybe I am completely wrong and it will be awesomesauce. lets see....
