Listen to Our PAX West LIVE Celebration of Mass Effect!

AXE OF THE BLOOD GOD | We add Mass Effect to our Top 25 RPG countdown LIVE from PAX West.

This article first appeared on USgamer, a partner publication of VG247. Some content, such as this article, has been migrated to VG247 for posterity after USgamer's closure - but it has not been edited or further vetted by the VG247 team.

Axe of the Blood God is our weekly RPG podcast hosted by Kat Bailey and Nadia Oxford. You can find the previous episodes here.

Now this is fun! Over the weekend I hosted a live discussion of Mass Effect at PAX West, where I was joined by special guests Austin Walker of Waypoint, Matthew Allen of Vidjagame Apocalyse, and USG reviews editor Mike Williams. Now you can listen for yourself [download link here]!

We had a blast talking Renegade vs. Paragon, Female Shep vs. Male Shep, Kaidan vs. Ashley (spoiler: they're both bad), and of course, the infamous Mako. We also had a special group viewing of the infamous Mass Effect alien sex scene, and it's every bit as cringey as you remember. Join us as we celebrate the original Mass Effect and add it to the Top 25 RPG countdown!
