Looking for a Mass Effect game!

I know it's not official or anything, but I would love to play a Mass Effect campaign! Maybe we can meet up over the weekend in the next couple of weeks and try it out. I know there's an unofficial rule book out there.
There are two actually. a D20 based one and a D6 based one, I've only got experience with the D6 version and I would not recommend it. It has a lot of things working against it, non-asari biotics are unable to buy implant (the cheapest being 10,000 Credits), the lwest requirement being +6 when it's rare for a character to have +5. Can't say anything about the D20 based on though.
I recommend Matthew Skau's *AW hack. Lots of fun failures and successes, plus fast character generation. <a href="https://home.comcast.net/~of_the_woods/ME/Mass_Effect_Apocalypse.pdf" rel="nofollow">https://home.comcast.net/~of_the_woods/ME/Mass_Effect_Apocalypse.pdf</a>
I've seen the d20 version and would like to try it.
I'd like to play Mass Effect too, but the system I think would be the best is Fate. <a href="http://masseffectrpg.org/" rel="nofollow">http://masseffectrpg.org/</a>
That Fate version looks neat. That said if time and concept work out I'd be down for just about any system.
I love the ME universe! I've heard bad things about the D6 system too. I have experience with PbTA system. I've looked at the hack and it seems pretty cool. And it's true that it's fast character generation. I would be down for that one
