      ^ hell yeah bro, way to reinstall win.

      from what i've eard, it will be later this year - or early 2010. either way, i'll be rollin. E3 was massive, and this dominated it.

        Three days to go if Amazon or EA/Bioware don't screw it up...am so going to be all over this Game during the Weekend. Character from Mass Effect 1 is on the hard drive and I can't wait to migrate it and continue playing using my decisons from Part 1. Shephard FTW!

              was stunned by the length of the commercial during the Saints vs. Vikings Division Championship...evidently video games are very recession proof

              It was fun while it lasted...

                If anything, computer games actually enjoy an uplift in sales thanks to people finding more things to do a home rather than going out.

                  Okay, Bioware, EA churn out some killer one's though. the interface for play in their games (ie. Mass Effect 1, Dragon Age) is super legit, hands down; it shines compared to others out there. I play few games these days - as my sched is super busy, but theirs are really well put together. big fucking bucks when into this, as John pointed out: the advertising during these killer footfall playoffs was a bit much lol.

                  i picked this up today @ game stop after work, and i just started playing; it is mindblowing and rich with content.

                    I've just never got into a first person shooter. I always find the controls limiting and doesn't feel right. Especially when people play them on consoles with a pad. At least a mouse and keyboard feels more fluid and exact. I think I'm just bored with computer games in general. Until Gran Turismo 5, that is.

                      ^ Roger that mate, I hear ya I got a real bad issue with console controllers, as a matter of fact -- cos I'm a bit spastic when on them -- grrrr! I need to start playing on my PC more often; have not played many in quite some time, but I use my computer for school, work and deejaying primarily these days anyways. Got this for 360 cos it's fun to play on that. ME2 should be a blast. Hope all's well guys.

                        ME2 has a bigger action part but calling it a shooter doesn't do justice to the Game. The whole dialogue options and the freedom to make your own decisions that actually HAVE consequences, may they be good or bad, are oldschool RPG. Also Bioware has a unique way to tell stories and connects you with the NPC's that are in your team in a highly entertaining and also emotional way - but only if you don't mind to listen to a lot of conversations and if you do the optional quests and really explore the World(s). I am sure most shooter fans will be bored pretty fast with this, just play the Main quest and are done in 12 hours. Then it's maybe like a Shooter but that's not what it's meant to be. IMO of course aka Die hard Bioware Geek.

                          ^ well fucking put mate. about a few hours into the game, and wow, simply so vast and calculating it's kinda scary! i'm playing as an adept this time around, and it's a bit tougher, but i enjoy all the micromanagement of your powers and your groups' in combat. the social interaction and story is magnificent. i enjoy the rp much much more than the combat in this game (if i wanna play some bonkers shooter, i'll play go play cod mw2 for a bit), but nonetheless, the combat is really sweet.

                          Spoiler warning - Mark text to read it
                          [ms]'ers might dig the stompin' club (especially the lower level; they play some storming techno, breaks, prog etc.) on omega; when you're in the the captain's cabin of the new normandy, it lets you listen to some electronic music as well.
                          fun shit. frankly, it's almost an entirely different game, but still preserves the key components. again, it's so bloody vast.

                            Have just installed it and redeemed the Codes for the DLC and now Defrag is running before I start it. I already took a brief look to see if the Character import works and it does..my Shephard is back. It's snowing like mad here and it's friggin cold so I have the best excuse to slack over the weekend on the PC.
