So you leave Citadel for the first time, and then do one planets story mission, come back to the Citadel and he will be there. Do it another time and you get your EXP points.

Upper markets, at the stair going down to Lower Markets.

I just went back there and got my second visit with him, and I'm getting worried....he now has

Spoiler:
my autograph, possibly with my fingerprints, and now a picture of me aiming my gun, which with a bit photoshop skills he can easily make a whole lot of trouble for me....

Really? I found the shotguns to be a waste compared to a pistol. I will have to try out the shot gun again now that I have Spectre class weapons and I am over level 50.

I always used the pistol over the shotgun as well. After i got the Spectre shotty i decided to level my shotty out. After doing so, i was unstoppable. Every enemy i ran into fell from one to two shots. I equipped the shotgun with two stabalizer upgrades and the one that penetrates shields. Samas has a point though. I, like him always had Liara in my party. Mix singularity and lift with a monster shotgun and all will kneel

On the subject of that quest:

I found it rather disappointing. I though it would go something like that. He'd end up screwing something up for me and **** me over. Instead, he just had a slightly creepy obsession with me. When he asked to be a Spectre, I totally wanted him to join, though! I think it would be funny having a hot-shot rookie party member that always tries to pull off heroics and cliches and get me in a whole mess of trouble.

Spoiler:
but he doesn't join your party...he is just a douche...you can get paragon or renegade points from that conversation based on what you tell him the third time you speak to him...third time being the third time he is available.

Also, has anyone gotten the super duper license for Asari Biotic-Amps? I hear they are supposed to be the best bio upgrade in the game by far...but I cannot purchase any right now....they are not available for purchase from the requisitions officer...

Spoiler:
Also,...does the Salarian requisition officer stay on your ship if you tell him or ask him something?...he left when I went to the citiadal after his party was on my ship.

Just got this game as an early Xmas present, gonna pop it in shortly, can't wait.

Nice present.

Indeed.

Really enjoying the game so far, just conversing with people in the game is shockingly enjoyable. Probably the best voice acting I've ever heard in a video game.

It is.

The little bits of wording for one sentence is done extremely well. I never released how the conversation goes in Mass Effect is actual something fun.

Usually in most games, its boring as hell, but in Mass Effect your constantly surprised from what he/she says.

Except I sometime end up ending the conversation by accident, because I don't connect "I see" with "Goodbye" etc.
Also, how come certain times the text is gray and I can't select it?

Unfortunately, the rest of the game isn't nearly as impressive.

Already, I can tell the vehicle segments are going to be shit. The vehicle handles really poorly, inexcusably so, and it dies very quickly, coupled with the piss poor placement of autosaves (a disturbing trend with some recent games) it makes the vehicle segments just annoying and a chore.

Your indimidate or charm arent high enough for those options.

So i started playing Mass Effect again for the first time since the day it came out and i still find it boring. I put it on the easiest mode and i never play in that mode. I just wanna get it over with..

And I don't like it cause I think it's hard. it isn't. I just find the game boring on too many levels for me to appreciate it for the game it supposedly is, according to you guys.

Definitely one of the best games in recent times.

I felt like that the first ten minutes I played the Mako, but after that I got the hang of it and it is very easy to control the Mako, controls are identical to the Warthog in Halo, so they are ok.

if you dont like rpgs, its not the game for you.

I liked K.O.T.O.R., an R.P.G., alot. And it's kinda similar to M.E. in alot of aspects, in a way. So it's not that.

It's just the games not exciting to me for some reason.

I'll play it and beat it just cause i want to make the money i paid for it to at least count for somehow then it's off to GameStop to trade it off, take whatever the store gives me in credit and apply it towards a Turok 360 reserve.

Now there's a game. (maybe)

It's right on your HUD.

It's right about the grenade marker. You dont stockpile medi-gel. If you get more and you have a full stock, its useless.

Anata wa wakarimasu ka.....

Mass Effect is going to the PS3

Patcher...

Um, I didn't find any real news there, only a recap of what was said in the latest Bonus Round (I am guessing this Patcher dude is one of the BR dudes, since they link to the BR at the end of the article).
