Will everyone be involved? Or only humanity? I know this is kind of a newb-ish question but humanity was the subject in Mass Effect 2.

Sadness. ._.

Are you calling my Asian Female Shepard a white male?

I bet the Protheans saw something very similar to this...

And what's wrong with attacking Britain? Not EVERYTHING can take place in the good ol' US of A. To be honest, I would have liked to have seen New Delhi, which is apparently a very prosperous city in the ME universe. Anyway, what's to say time on Earth will be restricted to the UK?

Why attack Britain is it the strongest nation on Earth?

They're likely attacking every nation on the planet.  Mr.Big Ben said other cities are being attacked and the world looks pretty screwed up when Shepard is looking at it.

So the 7 million deaths in the first week are in Britain and not the world population?

Very likely, I'd even go as far as say it's London only. London seems to have grown a bit with all those large skyscrapers.

Since the nations are more unifed wouldn't Britain have it's own army to combat the Reapers or are invidual armies replaced for a global one.

The British soldier dude said that the planet's defenses have been mostly anihillated.  There is no way they could've prepared for this.  They don't even know what the Reapers are.

Britain is a part of the European Union--in any case, I suppose they just picked a place that wasn't New York City.

Because NYC has well over a million times filled its quota of "attacked by aliens". BioWare probably wanted to do something unique. Someone else be the butt monkey of the world, and they picked London. Lucky guys!

Exactly. I think they just did it just so they wouldn't do New York. As you said New York has been done a million times in a destroyed motif. 

I think it all came down to iconic cities.They wanted to do ubiquitously known cities, and, since New York is somewhat cliche, they went with London (probably tied in that regard). Those two-- New York and London-- are probably evenly the two most popular when it comes to landmarks and world famous recognition.

I'm hoping to have a bromance with this British soldier. I want to give him a bro hug like with Jacob.

I fear for the Reapers if they put one mechanical tentacle in the Borough of Hounslow though. Poor evil old machines won't know what hit them right between the eyes.

The Alliance is the earths combined army in the galaxy. I think the countries, or rather unions in mass effect will have their own comparatively smallish standing army. Which most likely is close to wiped out except for those few one man armies like the bad*** in the trailer.

Neighbors knocking on my apartment door 2 minutes later wondering what the huge bout of madman-esque screaming was all about.



Can't wait for more info.

With the added convenience of its inhabitants speaking English.

It was inevitable considering the context of the game.

It does pain me to admit that CoD fanboys own these game shows and awards .

Anyone notice the giant ferris wheel in futuristic London? At least that's what it looks like.

Dude, there's a big ass ferris wheel in London right now. Get to know the planet you live on.

Why would anyone know some secondary landmark from a country they didn't live in? I know I've heard about it in passing, but it's not like it gets a lot of focus. Hell, I'm pretty sure the only reason the world knows about secondary American landmarks is because of Hollywood.

[Busomjack]

Yeah, Bioware is giving London plenty of loving...by blowing it up.

Where is 5th Fleet when ya need them. Come on Hackett!!!

[Cossack72]

I wonder how Jump Zero (Gagarin Station) and other space bases like it fare in the invasion?

[Busomjack]

The trailer for Mass Effect 3 was so good it actually made me forget that Elder Scrolls V has just been confirmed.

It's not really secondary though...

I can't help but laugh. Bioware debuts any character for any game and there are always people clamoring to find out if they can boink them.

They picked London because New york is busy being attacked by OTHER aliens, overrun over by zombies, being torn up by a fight between Spiderman and the Goddamned batman, and destroyed by Gozer.
