Singapore’s authorities have relented and reversed their decision to ban Xbox 360 game Mass Effect because it contains a steamy girl-on-girl love scene

I then found the scene on Youtube here ...

According to the review on Channel 4 Teletext's Game Central this morning, it's an "Action RPG", and an unofficial follow up/sequel to Star Wars: Knights of the old Republic 1 and 2.

They rated it as decent, so it might be worthy of a rent for the achievements.

No it isn't, it has nothing to do with Star Wars other than the fact that Bioware made it. Sorry to be a pedant. Bioware are well known for making a few very good action RPGs.

Apparently Game Central are a bunch of clueless numpties, they said it was! :loopy:

Oh well, at least they aren't devout Sony zealots like Digitiser were.

and prize for the most over use of the word zealot goes to.............. Rich! Congratulations.

If you liked KotOR you'll like this.

The storyline is pretty good. Characterter creation was good and the game appears to use its own character levelling system (not one ripped off a pen and paper game).

The map screen and additional missions to do are pretty fun even if all the planets use the same pregenerated building models etc which get a little tedious after a while.

I've never been a fan of RPGs on the 360 but this one managed to get past my distrust and I'm getting quite addicted.

3.5/5 from me!
