We don’t know what it is either, but it certainly looks like a modern or semi futuristic shooter. Perhaps it’s going to blend shooter with role-playing game a bit like Mass Effect 2 is.
Spike TV’s Video Game Awards, which will air live on December 11 at 8pm Pacific (3pm AEDT), will also give viewers a preview of Batman: Arkham City, we’re told. Stay tuned and until then, let’s figure out what this Bioware game is.

Thursday, November 18, 2010 at 10:00 AMDefiantly Mass Effect Related. That is very close resemblance to the inscisor Sniper Rifle in ME2.
The Mass Effect 2 twitter let off two cryptic images here: http://yfrog.com/7bj78p http://yfrog.com/b737bp
Roughly translated the first image says image says -128.5°F. The second image says 55.845.
No i am not going to pretend i found out what the answers mean. This is taken from Jarrod over at PALGN but how he found this out is phenomenal:
Everything points to the Planet in ME2 known as Aequitas.

First clue: 55.845, the atomic mass of iron. Aequitas is known for its ‘iron canyons’.
Second clue: -128.5°F, or -89.1°C. Aequitas has surface temperature of −89 °C.

Thursday, November 18, 2010 at 12:03 PMYes the net is a buzz with decoding the QR codes, screenshot and teaser. Wonderfully frustrating marketing by BioWare!

Thursday, November 18, 2010 at 6:10 PMIt doesn’t make much sense for BioWare to release a game which is so similar in tone and setting as Mass Effect. I’m guessing this will be a spin-off.
