Has the new Mass Effect game been cancelled?

A new Mass Effect game has been highly anticipated by fans for a long time. In the Monday letters page, readers discussed the potential of a Zelda: Ocarina Of Time remake and how Sony could take inspiration from Nintendo's approach to making movies. The Games Inbox section featured a collection of readers' letters, comments, and opinions on various gaming topics.

To join in on the discussions, readers were encouraged to email in their thoughts. One reader brought up the recent rumors surrounding the Mass Effect TV show at Amazon. They mentioned that the show's script may be changed to appeal to non-gamers, which could potentially compromise the authenticity of the source material.

The reader also expressed disappointment that there is more news about the show than the highly anticipated new game. Despite EA's assurance that the game has not been cancelled, the reader remains skeptical and hopes for some sign of life soon. Another reader praised a recent Reader's Feature about the potential of a Zelda: Ocarina Of Time remake.

They expressed doubt that Nintendo would invest in a full-on remake, but would be impressed if they did. The reader also hoped that the remake would not lose the weird and unexpected elements that made the original game so appealing. The topic of a new Uncharted game was also discussed, with speculation that Naughty Dog may be working on one as a way to make amends for cancelling The Last Of Us Online.

The reader expressed disbelief that Sony has been slow to announce a new game in the popular franchise, and hopes that it does not die off. In a separate comment, a reader shared their thoughts on the price of the PS5 Pro on Amazon. They expressed concern that the price may set a precedent for future console releases and wondered if Sony is trying to recoup losses from their failed live service projects.

Another reader shared their nostalgia for the Xbox 360 dashboard and blades, and expressed disappointment with the changes made to the Xbox interface over the years. They also mentioned that they have not been compelled to purchase an Xbox in a long time. It's been a long wait for a new Mass Effect game, and it seems like fans are more interested in discussing the possibility of a Zelda: Ocarina Of Time remake and the upcoming Mass Effect TV show.

The latest rumors suggest that the show's script might be changed to appeal to non-gamers, which raises concerns about its authenticity. It's a bit disheartening that we're hearing more about the show than the new game. Although EA has assured fans that the new game is still in the works, there hasn't been much news or updates about it.

Some are starting to doubt if it's even happening, similar to how Beyond Good And Evil 2 has been stuck in development limbo. But if there's no sign of life for the new Mass Effect game, some may just give up on it and settle for playing through the trilogy remaster one last time. On a different note, a reader recently shared their thoughts on a Zelda: Ocarina Of Time remake.

While they would love to see a full-on Capcom-style remake, they doubt that Nintendo would go for it. A more realistic expectation would be an upgraded version of the 3DS remaster. However, they hope that whatever Nintendo decides to do, they won't take away the weirdness and horror elements that made the original game so unique.

In other news, there have been rumors about a new Uncharted game in the works. Some are surprised that Sony hasn't announced it yet, especially since they have a movie in the works. Although Naughty Dog has previously stated that they have no plans for a new Uncharted game, some speculate that they may change their minds, especially in the current state of the world.

Others think that Sony may be trying to make amends for canceling The Last Of Us Online, which could explain the delay in announcing a new game in the Uncharted franchise. Lastly, a reader shared their thoughts on the price of the PS5 Pro, which is currently listed for £999 on Amazon. They can't imagine the PlayStation 6 launching for any less, and they wonder if Sony is trying to recoup some of their losses from the failed live service project.

As a loyal GameCentral reader, they also added the website as a preferred source on their Google search to ensure they don't miss any gaming news and reviews. In the midst of these discussions, one reader expressed their love for the Xbox 360 dashboard and blades, and how they never understood why Microsoft got rid of it. They believe it's the only iconic thing the Xbox has ever had in terms of interface, and they're not surprised that people are trying to recreate it.

Despite the changes in the Xbox interface over the years, this reader believes that nothing has made them want to reconsider owning an Xbox again.
