ME2, a game where you play an actual role in the storyline, is not an RPG but FF is an rpg series.

You can split hairs all day long, but no matter which way you look at it, ME2 isn't an RPG. Whether or not that's a bad thing is up for debate, but it's pretty clear ME2 is as much of an RPG as Crackdown is.

Fuck no. That game has rpg depth of a Ratchet and Clank game.
Did you only play ME2 on Normal?  The skills you choose to upgrade on your character and the people you have in your party has a huge effect when playing on Insane where every enemy has health+shields/armor/biotic shields so different abilities and ammos make a huge difference.  You also can only last a second or two in the open before dieing so dumping bullets is usually never a real option.

When I think of an RPG, I think of something that gives me a ton of customization in combat and that requires me to understand the customization system in order to not suck.  If you play ME2 on Insane, you'll be ammo-starved and have to know how to use your abilities.  I don't get how ME1 can be an RPG but not the second game when it's combat felt a lot deeper than the first game.  The first game did have more loot but it didn't really give you more options as far as combat.

Sony Russia said on twitter that it's Mass Effect 3.

If that's the case, who the fuck is the guy in the teaser?

???

Like anyone at "Sony Russia" has been given the inside scoop. And would be allowed to be twatting about it outside of the official PR campaign. If it turns out to be true, this will only have been a coincidence.

In the west, we're informed about our games. IN SOVIET RUSSIA GAME INFORMS ON YOU.
