If you live in North America or Europe (or a region with a similar release schedule), BioWare and Microsoft's sci-fi shooter-RPG, Mass Effect, is ancient history. Yeah, it was great, but that was a long time ago, you say.Well, Japan doesn't really see it that way, as they have only recently been promised that the game will be seeing their shores this year! A little unfair, perhaps?
Well, Microsoft wanted to apologize for the delay, so they're throwing in some goodies with each copy of the game in the region.
The bonus disk that will be included will contain Xbox Dashboard theme(s), gamer icons, developer documentary videos, music tracks from the game, and a design gallery. However, probably the biggest bonus is the inclusion of the extra DLC episode, Bringing Down the Sky (titled Hoshi no Ochiru Hi, or literally, the Day the Stars Fell).
I don't know if it makes up for the huuuuuge delay, but it's at least a nice effort.
Mass Effect will be available for Xbox 360 and PC on May 21, 2009 in Japan. It is already available in North America and Europe.
