BioWare hires an All-Star cast for Mass Effect 2

Posted by Drea Avellan Categories: Electronic Arts, Role Playing Games, Xbox 360,

Mass Effect 2Casting is a very important part of film production, used to attract movie goers into theaters.  Similarly, BioWare is hoping to achieve this same kind of effect by casting big names into their upcoming title, Mass Effect 2. Sure, they are also hired to bless the game’s characters with talent, grace and—in some cases—even mannerisms. Names such as comedic actor Seth Green, Chuck stars Yvonne Strahovski and Adam Baldwin, Star Trek’s Michel Dom, Battlestar Galactica’s Tricia Helfer, Carrie-Anne Mos, and even Martin Sheen are part of this all-star game cast.  If the Mass Effect series never tickled your fancy, these names will surely spike your interest, even if it’s just curiosity.

Battlestar MMO Rumor Shot Down

The listing was quickly pulled, however, and today Vivendi Universal is saying that such a game has not been announced. The full statement from Vivendi to 1up is:

EBGames has removed the information because it was not accurate. Vivendi Games has not announced a Battlestar Galactica game. We cannot comment any further as it is our policy to not comment on industry rumors.

Of course, this statement does not indicate that such a game could not be in the works; just that nothing has been announced. While a new MMO might be too much to hope for, the Battlestar franchise would seem to be too good of a match for the video game world to leave alone for very long.
