    Amazing! A Must Buy For Mass Effect Fans!
  

*by O***H on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 10, 2015*

I openly admit, I am a Mass Effect junkie. Its my single favorite video game and I am absolutely enthralled with the characters and universe as a whole. When it comes to the overall quality and depth of a story, Bioware certainly doesn't disappoint. The sheer amount of lore and history they infuse with their games is truly amazing. Dragon Age: Inquisition is just the latest example. For those willing to take the time to really dig in, their game universes take on a level of depth and realism that most games can't come close to matching. Personally, I believe games like this have such amazing artwork because the overall quality of the story and universe inspires the artists. I see this sort of thing in the comic market all the time as certain titles and characters really bring out the best in the artists depicting them. Well, that is certainly the case with Mass Effect as the artwork that has been created for this series is nothing short of amazing.I have collected just about every Mass Effect collectible that has come to market including the limited edition lithographs from Bioware. I actually have a few of the lithographs framed and up on my walls, including "The Team" lithograph which is actually the cover for this book. Its one of my favorite lithographs in the series and was definitely the perfect choice for the cover. All in all, this book is 184 pages and is chock full of amazing artwork from all 3 Mass Effect games. Concept art, character studies, weapons, vehicles, landscapes, ect. You find a little bit of everything in here, including highly insightful commentary. This is ultimately a perfect example of how to create a proper video game art book. Its just hugely satisfying and ultimately made me want to jump right back into the game.Bottom line - Mass Effect moved me in a way that very few games have been able to match. It has one of the best rosters of characters in the entire history of gaming, has an absolutely brilliant story, and it has some of the best artwork ever to come out of a video game title. For fans of the series, this book should be considered absolutely mandatory. I am a big collector of art books and this is without question one of the best video game related art books I have ever seen come out of the gaming market. No matter what Mass Effect collectibles you may already own, your collection is simply incomplete without this book. Its just amazing in every sense of the word and really should be on every Mass Effect fan's bookshelf.5 Stars and then some!!

This book is very cool! I only know this game by proxy, I've watched it being played but never played it myself. The story is excellent though, and when I stumbled upon this book at Barnes and Noble, I picked it up to take a look. A half hour later I was still sitting on armchair next to the mini-Starbucks perusing the pages. This book is basically an illustrated, annotated chronology of the evolution of the Mass Effect Trilogy. Its pages are full of the sketches of characters and places I only vaguely recognize, but I'm sure a player would instantly know. But from my standpoint, its just plain interesting. Seeing the process from the rough draft to the final product is out of this world. (wink wink) I knew I had to buy it as a gift for the gamer in my family. I pulled out the smartphone and much to my pleasure I found it for several dollars cheaper here on Amazon than in store. Instant purchase! Mind you, I am in my mid-twenties, not particularly into video games, and I was tempted to purchase one for myself. As is, I bought one for my brother-in-law who is 26 and a heavy gamer. I mention ages because this game is both violent and ladden with sexuality, not that I'm complaining, I say this is a recipe for excellent entertainment, but I wouldn't buy this book for children. It does have some nudity in it, its tasteful and artistic, but it is nudity. The cosutmes for women are typical "bikini armor" and therefore racy and womanizing, fine for the more discriminating less impressionable consumer. Also the creatures depicted are graphically scary, again these are beautiful pieces of art, however it might not be age appropriate for your nine year old. My opinion, the typical kid wouldn't appreciate this anyway, it doesn't give away secrets of the game, it doesn't ramble on and on about the gameplay, this book is truly what it title says. It is the Art of the Mass Effect Universe. Text is sparse and detailed renderings and sketches abound. Buy it for your mature gamer friend, or your budding graphic artist or anyone who is interested in the evolution of video games.

    Excellent Book!
  

*by A***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 16, 2012*

This is a must have for fans that have played through the entire Mass Effect series and loved every bit of it.The book is big and sturdy, with a thick hardcover, and durable, gloss finish pages that won't smudge or wrinkle.  For the Mass Effect 2 section, almost every squad member gets a full page artist's rendering that would be amazing as a 24 x 36 poster on a wall, but is still awesome to see as is.  The artist sketches typically cover brainstorming and development drawings, and even occasionally include comedic captions or side notes on what people were thinking.The book is a must have, and I don't regret the purchase one bit.  HOWEVER, that being said, I gave the book only 4/5 stars because, while lengthy, the entire Mass Effect universe is MASSIVE, and covers a lot of characters, aliens, locations, events, and ideas.  The book at least touches on most of them, but in a lot of cases, that's all it does (and for some reason, the Batarians aren't so much as MENTIONED in this book; big disappointment).  For those looking to find detailed developer thoughts behind the concept of various characters, aliens, or locations, you won't find much here; most captions and descriptive elements aren't much more than a paragraph or three in length.  This left me desiring a more information and background to much of what is shown.Still, this is an awesome book that shows a lot of early concepts of familiar races, locations, or vehicles in the Mass Effect universe; you'll see a lot of stuff that (sometimes, thankfully!) didn't make it into the game, including an enemy from Mass Effect 3 that got cut.  And some of the Mass Effect 1 information provided gives valuable insight into what inspired the look and ideals of the alien races.
