We all learned this morning that G4's own correspondent Jessica Chobot, star of X-Play, Attack of the Show and Feedback, will appear as Diana Allers, a reporter, in the upcoming sci-fi RPG Mass Effect 3. She'll join Martin Sheen, Freddie Prinze Jr. and other big stars in the game.
“It's a dream come true. I’m excited, stoked and honored. I’m seriously in 7th heaven," Chobot said. "It's cool just because it’s in a video game, but it’s also for one of my favorite companies of all time, Bioware, and in one of the most epic series of all time, Mass Effect 3."
Chobot says the sight of herself as a virtual character was a bit of a shock at first. "You're just not used to seeing yourself like that," she explained, "I have huge chipmunk cheeks. I hope I don’t look like a chipmunk in real life...and the butt and boobs are impressive. I wish I had boobs like that, and the butt is quite large. I hope my butt is not that big, but I’m happy that everything looks very firm in the game."
Given Mass Effect's popular romance features, I had to ask her: Will gamers be able to have a meaningful, romantic space-relationship with Ms. Chobot?
"Last I heard, I am one of the 'romanceable' characters in the game," Chobot said. "I think you can bring me on the Normandy, I think you have the option of kicking me off too. I’m not sure if that’s before or after you romance me, so we might have a Jersey Shore moment. I think you can romance me with a man or a woman. We’ll see when the game comes out," Chobot added.
When asked whether she planned to "romance" herself, Chobot said, "Oh, I’m gonna give it to me so hard."
Jessica will be appearing on Feedback, right here on G4tv.com, tomorrow to discuss Mass Effect 3, the week's video game news, and more, so point your brower here at around noon tomorrow! Mass Effect 3 comes out for the PC, PS3 and the 360 on March 6, 2012.

Dunno what you mean by great wrong. If your think she might have a say in how IGN & G4 reviews the game. It will not, She is not a Writer. You can't blame Jessica for trying to widen her career.
Visually, Jessica is just more know that the others. Almost ever Major character is based off someone. Ashley, Joker, Jack, Samara, Liara are all based off a Real Person. Miranda is the most known because of Yvonne.
It's the new Default Female Shepard. According to one PR people at Bioware it's a taste to things to come.

Touching on the subject of "Almost ever Major character is based off someone", it would be real cool that you posted the real-life models for most characters in the history of the franchise, Revan.
It would give you something to do as a countdown... =)
(hint: I never found the model for Ashley, for instance)
_________________________ Crushingly Beautiful (tm) Ladies - (as of March 31st, 2013)

I only know who Samara is based off of. It's unknown who everyone else based off of. BioWare has never released any of the info on that.
People been asking for years who Ashley was based off of, Bioware would never answer them.
The Romances for Mass Effect 3 | Updated: 01.31.12
New Romances
- Samantha Thraynor (Exclusive for Female Shepard) a Alliance Communication Specialists. She takes over for Kelly Chambers as Yeoman on the Normandy SR-2. Samantha is a family oriented Person who wants to plant roots once the War is over.

- Diana Allers (Confirmed to be Bi by Jessica Chobot(Her Voice Actress). She can be stationed on the Normandy SR-2. After Selected Missions Diana will report on the War Efforts for ANN and from time to time Shepard will be interviewed.
- James Vega (Defiantly Bi after the latest dialogue) Recruited by Admiral Anderson to be Shepard Bodyguard during the investigation. Along with Shepard & Ashley escapes earth to Find Help to fight the Reapers.
- Their will be other Romances as well, However they are unknown as of right now. Shiala & Gianna Parasini are very strong Possibilities. More info starting to point to a Romance with Gianna and Shiala (may be a Mini-Romance).
Continuing Romances (Requires Mass Effect 2 Save File). You can not start a New Romance with any of the Mass Effect 2 Squad Members that can be Romanced. This Includes both Tali and Garrus(Even through they are both Permanent Squad members in ME3).
- Miranda Lawson - Tali - Kelly Chambers - Jack - Thane - Jacob - Garrus - Ashley - Kaidan - Liara
Past Romances, But Can Start a New Romance with(The Romance will unfold differently).
- Ashley (Unconfirmed, But Rumored She will be Bi) - Kaidan (Confirmed he will be Bi) - Liara
-----------
Date Night
- About Half way through the game, you can take your Current Love Interest on a Date.
However your Love Interest must be Stationed on the Normandy SR-2. Characters Like Miranda or Jack can not be taken on a Date (as of Right now), Since they are else where in the universe. Their are some Sweet Moments with Miranda Once you meet up with her (if Romanced).
Characters that can be taken on a Date:
- Ashley (Unknown) - Samantha (Unknown) - Diana (Unknown) - Liara (Unknown) - James Vega (Goes Dancing with Male or Female Shepard) - Steve (Goes to Afterlife) - Kaidan (Has Dinner with Male or Female Shepard) - Garrus (Citadel) - Tali (Unknown)
Each character has different location for their Date.
---------------------
If you tried to Hookup with Samara in Mass Effect 2, The game will be importing that. No word as of yet if anything can between the two.
------------------------------
Squadmates & NPC can hook up with One Another, if those characters are unromanced by Shepard.
- Tali & Garrus (Confirmed) - Joker & EDI(Only if you tell Joker & EDI to try at a Relationship)(Confirmed).
------------
Additional EDI Info
Click to reveal..
EDI get's a Body in Mass Effect 3 & She is also a Squad member.
The Illusive Man Built the Fembot to look like Eva Core (Those who read the Comics know who Eva is).
The Fembot is acquired during the Mars Mission(the second Plot Mission in the game). This is also where Ashley is injured and will be out of commission until the Cerberus Assault Mission(Cerberus Assault Mission is around the 5th Plot Mission in the game).
Once the Fembot is taken aboard the Normandy SR-2 EDI takes control of the FemBot. Not word on EDI skill set, most of her abilities will be tech. I hope atlease someone on the squad get's something similar to Kasumi Shadow Strike.
