As was not entirely unexpected, hotly anticipated RPG sequel Mass Effect 3 has been leaked to torrent sites a week before it legally goes on sale. Will it hurt sales of BioWare’s hot franchise?
A quick search of popular torrent hangouts (no, we aren’t going to tell you – if you are that determined to rip off BioWare’s intellectual property you can Google it yourself) shows that the latest instalment in the Mass Effect series has been comprehensively leaked. The Xbox 360 version broke cover first, swiftly followed by ports for the PC and even the once uncrackable PS3.
The Xbox and PS3 versions are ready to play but BioWare and distributors Electronic Arts can take a small crumb of comfort from the fact that the PC version currently doesn’t have a crack unsecured loans available for it so will be useless to anyone bad credit loans who has snaffled it. This state of affairs is not expected to last, however. No source of the leak has been identified.
For those who are prepared to wait (and pay) MassEffect 3 goes on sale in the UK on 9 March and is said to be the biggest instalment yet in the sci-fi RPG series. BioWare says that the new episode will act as a closing chapter to Commander Shepherd’s travels through the galaxy in search of duplicitous aliens to take out with well-placed headshots. Events in the game follow on directly from the last Mass Effect 2 DLC Arrival.
