    Mass Effect

    I'm surprised there's no discussion on this! (I searched!)

    Other then a lot of hickups with graphics, and a steep learning curve with the control, I'm addicted.

    Re: Mass Effect

    I played for 5-6 hours so far and love it.

    It was really easy to just get lost in the game, voice acting is the best i have seen in a game, and the chat system flows really well.
    I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

    Re: Mass Effect

    I needed to take a break form this game after roughly 40-sometihng hours on it, during the long weekend. The story is really addictive, and as Begbie stated, the voice acting is superb.

    Although I do know about the graphics. It seems to be a texture loading issue; it seems to do it on the fly to shorten static load times overall, which is fine by me.

    The elevator loading times are way too frequent, but the hot alien sex scenes make up for it.

    Hehehe, Ashley rejected me then there was the whole thing with me leaving her to her death, which the rejection had nothing to do with *whistles*.

    Shhh! Careful of potential spoilers!

    That particular mission you're referring to was incredibly cool, by the way.

    Re: Mass Effect

    I just beat the game yesterday. Going to carry over my character and start a new campaign, these missions are going to be so much easier now that I know wtf is going on.

    Re: Mass Effect

    Beat the game for a third time, this time on hardcore mode. I have racked up almost 50 hours on a now, level 58 soldier paragon. I will beat the game now a fourth time on Insane (sounds like Gears of War ) and call this character done. Speaking of "hot alien sex" rumor has you can have "hot girl on girl alien human sex" if you're crafty enough. So maybe my next character will be a female engineer renegade.

    Re: Mass Effect

    So I bought it the other day, played through the first battle zone... then decided to put it away for some sleep.

    Day 2... or is it 3 now... bah... anyways, I sit here, 5:31am... I've been playing for 6 hours straight.

    Solving mysteries, exploring planets (Thank God I'm an infiltrator... sniping REALLY helps out there!) and being an overall renegade!

    ... me... need... sleep.
    Shepard out... I mean.. Clod... I... *snore*

    Re: Mass Effect

    ********SPOILER WARNING!**************


























    So my big bro beats the game with a Renegade Infiltrator, and shows me the ending sequence. This particular Renegade ending reminded me a lot of the Empire. Udina being the Emperor, my older bro being Darth Vader, and Anderson being well. Him.
