    ME or ME2 Fans?

    Anybody play Mass Effect or Mass Effect 2? I am completely addicted.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Coke in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a ride!".

      Borrowed Mass Effect off a mate last week. It got switched off after about 17 minutes. Long live Halo!!!!
      It's 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.

      Hit it.

        I didn't like it if first minutes, but got addicted too. I played it year ago so I'm not sure if it was ME2...

            ME 1 is not as good, but playing it first and then importing the character to ME 2 makes the story better. It's not that the game play is better, definitely is not the graphics, it is the story that you get involved in. It is a thinking persons action game, because there is plenty of action with actual challenge to it (currently playing it on insanity), but it's like a movie that you get to interact with. You have moral decisions with consequences that can make your character and team members get killed in the end if you don't do it right. If you are a sci-fi buff and like story not just a shooter, you will like it. If you like juvenile games where you just shoot and kill bosses, play a different game.

                I've also been playing Fallout3 lately. I like the game better for the amount of weapons you can select from, but the ME2 story is awesome.

                ME2 drags you into the game and you feel as if you're really a part of it. I tried to play as a bad character, but I actually began to feel sorry for the characters I interacted with and went back to being good. LOL. Never had a game do that to me before. For example, the DLC for Zaeed. You have a choice, either save the people at the refinery (building on fire) or choose the renegade option and go after Zaeed's nemesis. I thought I'd be bad, so I chose to let Zaeed have his revenge. The people in the refinery burned to death and the whole time you are going through the building you can hear them scream. At the end, it's real quiet because they're all dead and you really feel that you let them die. I felt so horrible afterward, I had to reload that part and save them. Can't wait for ME3.

                    Been playing ME3.

                    the story is not to bad I had imported character from ME2 so the story sort of flows from decisions made in ME2.

                    Had to stop playing for a bit the final fights where starting to get to me. I HATE BANSHEE'S.

                      Yeah...that scream kills me. The funny thing is when you play multi-player and there's a Banshee, you will see some teammates run away and some run up to it. Either way it's not going to be good. Multi-player is cool because eventually they unlock the aliens and you can play something different than human, plus they have guns you can't get in the game. I'll send you my email address via private message so you can play some evening on multiplayer with me. They all move different and do different things. I'm playing the game second time around now. This time on insanity with a infiltrator. I was thinking I chose the wrong thing, but I changed the special power to energy drain. That takes the barrier down on a Banshee really fast. Just don't let her get too close or it's all over. I think I have a harder time with the Brutes. Their heads are hung low and it's hard to get a headshot. Multiplayer affects your game too. You will have conversations open and your overall readiness goes up. The ending is crappy, but EA promised to make a fix to change it.

                          That's what I realized. Check your PM's. Saturday is probably the only day

                              I didn't realize I had to empty the "sent items" folder, not just the inbox. Fixed it, so you should get the PM now. Sorry it was so long, I really do talk too much.
