Mass Effect? I've heard of that. The other universes he mentions, those I know. I think he is overestimating the amount of people playing videogames vs. the amount of people reading and watching television.
Of course, popularity is not a measure of importance, but it is a measure of influence. I don't think Mass Effect is very influential. At least, none of the authors I read have ever mentioned it, AFAIK.
