    Click above to see this character with a very-much-alive Shepard. Hey you, have we met before? BioWare has updated the Mass Effect 2 website with a few new screenshots, and we can't help but notice this green character unmentioned in the first game. Clearly he (she? it?) is of some importance, as BioWare has decided to showcase the character in not one, or two, or three or four screenshots -- but five. (Update: Readers have pointed out this character can be seen in this video and is named Thane.)This screen also shows a Krogan teammate, which we're assuming is Wrex because we totally didn't shoot him in the face.%Gallery-70022%

  • WowWee's Wrex the Dawg reviewed: puts real canines to shame

    Unless you've specifically been lookin' out, you may have very well forgotten about WowWee's crazed robotic dog that was uncaged at CES. After lasting through its first few days of training (which we'll call a review for our purposes), we're led to believe that this pup is "the silliest robot you'll ever love." Reviewers weren't shy in calling it like it saw it, as Wrex was hailed as "absolutely terrible at being a dog and even worse at being a robot." Of course, it's fairly easy to see this bugger was meant to provide comedic relief and not sophisticated companionship, so those pointers aren't exactly negative. Overall, Wrex is almost guaranteed to make you chuckle on a daily basis, and if you don't believe that, just check out the video waiting after the break.[Via MAKE]
