Don't get me wrong, I'm playing this demo on PS3 simply because that's where I spend most of my gaming time but I will be playing the full game on Xbox 360. The reason is simple, I want MY Commander Shepard, not some new made up fake-Shep bullshit.
Either way, I didn't get that choice with the demo but at least I got to pick Fem Shep. The demo was pretty great but it gives off a bad first impression because the frame rate in the first cut scene really sucks. The demo starts off with Shepard being summoned by high officials on Earth. It turns out the Reapers are here and they need me to go get help from the other races of the universe.
I then fought some dudes with a pistol while escorting Anders, the old guy. Eventually, I got on the Normady (greeted by Ashley!) and head off into adventure. There was a second part of the demo where Shepard, Garrus, Liara, Mordin and Wrex all team up to go rescue the last female Krogan. It was more a combat scenario and tit felt pretty good. There was even a boss fight that was kind of tough. I cannot wait for this game but now I'm thinking I let Mordin die in the last game... Maybe I should go back to Mass Effect 2 and get a better ending?
