    Yeah, I have been reading that the game turned out quite decent. A few "goty in january" lines here and there. Nothing major. heh.

    Who's buying it? I'm picking my copy as soon as I get out of class. This game is going to be ace.

    I will be getting it today and playing non-stop until I beat it. And then like with the first one I'll play again and again and beat it many more times :)

    I'm still playing the first one (Got it December for $5). I'll probably finish by the time the next one comes out.

    I just finished the first one today. Man, the sequel is such an improvement in terms of gameplay and level of polish.

    I meant Mass Effect 3.

    Omega, can you name some differences?

    Oh okay, gotcha ;)


    I've only played it an hour so far, most of it was cut scenes, but WOW this game so far is awesome.

    I didn't think I'd like the whole ammo/reloading mechanism over the previous mechanism, but I was wrong. This way it feels much better, they really seemed to fine tune the shooting in this one.

    - In terms of visuals, Mass Effect 2 trumps about anything I've seen this gen. The character design, performance (!), lighting and geometry trump the original.

    - In terms of gameplay, ME2 is much more fun and polished. The controls rock, and are definitely as good as, say, Gears of War 2. The combat itself is absolutely fantastic.

    - The story so far seems pretty interesting, and the new characters are really cool.

    - The cinematics are unparalleled.

    In a few words, it rocks.

    So sad to have beaten this game already. :(

    What a wonderful experience, managed to make it out with my entire crew alive.

    Wish ME3 was out. Oh well, I have Dead Space waiting for me now.
