Frank Shepard in “Booty Talk”

Council Spectre Frank Shepard is the universe’s first and best line of defense against total annihilation from the evil Reaper menace. He’s also a complete idiot. Lucky for him he’s good at killing, because he’s not good at much else!

In our first episode, Frank tries to have a conversation with Miranda, but keeps getting… distracted. Enjoy!

“Frank” is the name of my primary male Shepard character in Mass Effect 1 and 2 (and eventually, during “Holiday 2011”, Mass Effect 3). He looks kind of dopey, sure, but BioWare’s interesting decisions for camera angles — especially where Miranda is involved — certainly needs pointing out in any comical way I can manage.

It’s clear that I love me a Mass Effect; Frank has a starring role in our two KEEP PLAYING Mass Effect videos: Mass Effect Top 5 Things to Do Before Mass Effect 2 Comes Out and Mass Effect 2 – Of Great Import.

We’ll be releasing an all new KEEP PLAYING video in time for Mass Effect 2’s release on PS3, but along the way I accumulated a LOT of game play footage — which I HAVE to put to good use. Expect to see more of Frank in the future!

As for seeing more of Frank in the past, here are a couple of other little tidbits:
