Mass Effect 2

I don't get it. 🙁

Tali has to stay completely viral free or else she'll die. Humans are petri dishes.

Has anyone heard anything about the story?

Ahh, makes sense......

The story seems to be tha Shepard is assembling the finest fighters in known space..... and thats about it. Also, I'm not too impressed with these guys at the moment, they seem a bit meh. At least Tali's staying. She's cuuute.

I think Grunt might be the coolest party member outside of maybe Garrus and Tali, as long as he doesn't keep saying "all I want is to fight" he'll be cool.

Jacobs looks cool enough, I'm not sure about Miranda, though I like the actress that's doing her voice. The rest seem a little on the emo side, or at least are liable to make relations complicated, but we'll see.

Whatever you guys do AVOID the official forums. There is some bottom feeding scumbag who got the game illegally and posting spoilers in thread titles 20-30 times.

Thank god i only got spoiled once and didn't see the other spoilers.

I've stayed completely spoiler free of this game until today. I've not seen a single trailer or read any previews. But now I just saw the IGN video review, and it sounds really cool.

However for thos eof you who have followed the game, I have one question. We can load our old Shepards into this game, so that all our major choices carry over. However I was just wondering if the level of our old Shepard matters?

I have a lvl 50 Shepard from my first playthrough, a Paragon, and a lvl 60 Shepard from my second playthrough, a Renegade. Problem is, I want to carry over my Paragon Shepard, as he did the choices I agreed with. So am I loosing anything by choosing the lvl 50 over the 60?

Your level wont transfer but you will get a bonus for being lv 50-60+ i was told.

Not too impressed??? Why???

I'm assuming that was directed at me.

They just seem like they're trying too hard as well as the characters being very one dimensional. Grunt seemed like they just stamped a huge 'Badasse' sticker on his head and made him as a Wrex clone sans the personality. Zero is just waaaay over the top with the anger-issues, also making her out to be completely one dimensional. On the flipside the other characters haven't left a smudge of an impression on me. Of course this is just what I've gathered from the website but still: Meh.

The exeption is Tali and the green guy, who looks interesting. Of course this is Bioware. When have they gone wrong? By all things the game will be epic no matter. Also, the wierd eyes and scars shepards got now look fugging awesome.

this game is crack.

been addicted to it since last week. played about 8hrs of it so far so i should be pretty far. i hope to beat it by tomorrow but then again i don't want it to end..

i'm gonna definetely replay this game again.

oh, and the game's gonna win game of the year, no doubt.

Thought the game comes out today? How you get it so early. 360 or pc btw?

Big warning to everyone, stay away from the GameTrailers review. They really messed up this time and are hugely spoiling the game for you, I only saw the first minute and got a hell fo a lot of spoilers, GT usualy don't mess up like this, but beware of this one.

Just got the game and so far 4 hours in. One word sums up this game : epic. Makes the first mass effect look like turd imo despite Mass effect 1 being so great.

I won't be able to play the game legally until Thursday wallbashwallbashwallbashwallbashwallbash

Gameplay of Mass Effect 2 definitely surpasses the gameplay of 1, though I really don't like that you have self-generating health in this one. Probably my favorite battle so far was one on Omega, where I was fighting a random Krogan and ran out of ammo and had to run in and fight him hand-to-hand... I won... barely...

I still have yet to determine which has the better story...

I'm already six or seven hours in, picked it up at midnight and played it untill I had to leave for classes... Hind-sight? Not such a good idea...

Spoiler:
I do however enjoy how the Council still refuses to accept the existance of the Reapers... I was going through that conversation and was thinking "yup, I should have just let them die in the battle against the Reapers..."

I also love the interupts

Spoiler:
My favorite one so far is a renegade one on Omega, where you kill the Batarian merc who was trying to fix the gunship when you are going to save "Archangel"

I am alittle upset, though that I don't have the Terminus armor, though I followed the instructions on the card exactly... Thank God, I decided not to download the collector's armor first, because there is a slight chance I may get a replacement Terminus armor card.

Bought this game today. I can already tell I'm going to lose a few dozen hours to this game.

I am a few hours in and i got to say i like how they discarded that horrible inventory system.

Though i am extremely pissed off that i can't remove the helmets of blood dragon and collectors armor because i want to see my femsheps emotions during cutscenes.
I am only a few hours in but this game has improved from the first so much more, i like the fact that you could buy fishs for your tank and space hamsters!
FemShep can also be very seductive to jacob and kelly chambers.
