Mass Effect 2

You should try it now. The blast radius is huge and you get blinded by huge flames. I used it on more than ten Geth and a Colossus and there were no remains. Friggin awesome!

I think you can get freaky with Miranda even if you give Jack the Cerberus records. You pretty much just have to be kind to Miranda and help her with that one side mission. I'll agree with you that her face needs some improvement and I don't think she's that skinny. Certainly not skinny enough to play xylophones on her rib cage, that's for sure.

Spoiler:
For me, Jack was the only one that died. Thank god, I was pissed off at her whining. I'm not sure why, but I found the ending of Mass Effect 2 to be extremely disappointing even though the game was superb. The ending of the first Mass Effect was just epic, giving me that 'wow I'm so badass' feel with a good feeling of 'I can't wait to play the next one and kick some ass.' This ending is, well, a lot less epic and less of a cliffhanger as Mass Effect 1 was.

The only one worth male Shepard is Tali. She's an adorable girlfriend.

...of course, I'm playing female Shepard. Garrus is utterly hilarious once you suggest a relationship with him.

Miranda is a *****. If I lost loyalty for every single time she has been in a fight with someone in the party the entire crew would be dead.

I was looking forward to romancing Miranda in the beginning. Since she didn't look psychotic like Jack....but hell I ended up rejecting her offer.

Guh. Miranda, seriously? She's utterly horrid. Not just her face, but her personality.

I ended up going with Miranda... but mostly for the achievement... Would've gone with Tali... but I didn't think my paragon Shepard would risk her safety just for sex.

Can someone tell me where I can get different armor or am I stuck with the customizable N7 armor until I get DLC?

I have no choice. What I do is make it to where all of them are "prepped" and ready so I can create different save files and get the achievements on each file.

That's what I did in ME1.

Whew. Glad I'm not the only one. She is very cute and adorable. Does she take off the mask? I'm curious as to what goes on there...

That's funny. I guess I should play through as female, just to have done it.

Hey, that Justicar (sp?) is HOT! I just ran into her. Sexy schmexy.

No you don't see, she takes it off but you dont get to see what she looks like.

And you are nowhere near the only one check the mass effect forums and she's like the most popular one.

I love Tali. I always liked her since the first ME. I liked Liara too and since you couldn't romance Tali in the first game I just went for Li. I like cute, dorkish girls when it comes to love.

I was the opposite, initially I didn't think I'd like Miranda but after she

Spoiler:
killed Watson cold at the beginning

Also Jack suprised me, better character than I thought she'd be.

I am now going to replay ME2, BUT i am replaying ME1 with a male shepard and then i am importing over.

I never ever once finished playing ME1 with a maleshep.

Yep, Customizable N7 armor only unless you get the DLC. But the DLC armor doesn't let you remove the helmet, which irritates me. I have the Blood Dragon Armor from Dragon Age, the Terminus Armor from Game Stop and the Collector's Armor from my Collector's edition... and don't use any of them because I can't customise them or take off the Helmet.

But the N7 armor gave me enough Variety that I was satisfied.

Just beat the game and only now am I relaizing I probably fe*ckd over the galaxy... I destroyed the Rachni, the Geth, and the Krogan (not curing the genophage). And after seeing that Reaper fleet... What ever at least Shepard lived for me. Unfortently I lost three members. Jack and Thane died immedietly after using the relay and Tali got shot in the head...

Why is Tali's face such a mystery? Even in the romance scene, her helmet gets taken off but her face is still not shown. What is Bioware hiding behind that helmet of hers?

It's probably going to be some intense shocker. Yet I find it silly that the game tries so hard for you to get into the character and make him as similar to yourself as possible in personality and choices, don't get to see Tali's face when Shepard does.

From what I see they have a long face and small glowing eyes. Their feet look as if they MIGHT be webbed. I'm thinking that perhaps they look something like the Nautolans from Star Wars, except they don't have reptilian eyes but rather the glowing small pupils.

bought this the other day and i am enjoying it immensely.

because i loved fallout 3, i decided to try another rpg and me2 doesnt dissapoint. i have not played the first game but ive caught up with the jist of the precious story.

at the moment i think it doesnt offer as much freedom to explore like fallout 3. what i mean by that is, once you land on a planet, it pretty much ends up like a typical shooting game where you move through the level without getting lost at all. unlike fallout where you are completly free to roam.

Bioware is smart. They are just letting all of us imagine what they look like. Same reason Bungie never revealed what Master Chief looks like. No need to disappoint fans by ruining what they imagined Quarians look like. All we know is that apparentely Quarians are physically stronger/better/whatever. Grunt talked about how weak Turians, Salarians and Humans were but mentioned Quarians were not as weak as them.

I was so worried Tali was going to die. Hell I was worried about everyone not dying. Even the NPCs. I found myself missing their little convos in the Normandy after I beat the suicide mission.

Props to Bioware for delivering this epic experience.
