You ain't missing much, storywise, GoW3 was shit. The gameplay is fucking perfected, though.MiracleOfSound said:
Then again, I believe you were the person who found the ending to the stupid Christina missions in Brotherhood "one of the most emotional scenes of 2010".
Which it wasn't...at all. You had me all hyped for it, too.
Have you tried Insanity difficulty?Azurian said:
You'll want to punch the guy who came up with them.
Almost beaten my third playthrough.
First time round I was not taking things seriously, screwed up a fair bit.
Second time around, I knew what I was doing, and I did them properly.
Third time around, not quite finished yet.
Loving it, basically. Oh, and beaten Insanity on the second playthrough.

Well, I haven't played Mass Effect 1, but I have played Mass Effect 2 on my Xbox. I love it. Great story, lots of quests, excellent characters, etc. The one character I didn't like was Jacob to be honest, way too bland.
Thane, on the other hand, is a total badass. As is Joker, but you don't see much of him unless you go out of your way to talk to him.

Love ME2 with a passion. On my 5th play-through.
You find Jack annoying?? She is my favorite character and first pick love interest. Now MIRANDA, on the other hand... ick. If I had to pick I think I'd rather sleep with Morinth than Miranda.

I played both on the 360, and I'm going back and forth on whether I'm going to get it on the PS3. I think I will if they make ME3 for the PS3. It wouldn't hurt my feelings if they made ME 1 for it either. It's a dumb move to make the sequel but not the first one on another system, especially if both the first and second were for the same system to begin with.
Overrated. While it's certainly a good game there are just a few things that really bug me.
1. Plot holes
2. A completely underwhelming climax
3. A few annoying and/or unlikable characters
Jack
Miranda
Tali
Jacob
Zaeed
Other than these, I have no complaints.
1. Plot holes
Why am I working with people Shepard exposed as terrorists in the first game? Furthermore, after no less than three betrayals, why the hell would Shepard still work for the Illusive Man?
Why is the council suddenly forgetting about the Reaper that attacked at the climax of ME1?
Why does Shepard just go into a derelict Reaper? Wouldn't reporting it the the council as non-blown up proof of the Reaper's existence be a bit better than blowing this one up too?
Why are the Geth suddenly a neutral faction? It just makes the Quarians look like complete morons.

Hooray, epic battle through the Collectors home. There must be a mind-blowing, horrifying secret at the end of all this. Here it is! Its a... Its a... Its... a Reaper baby? WHAT THE ****!!!

Love Mass Effect in many many ways, although I play the PC versions. RPGs are hard to pull off as well on consoles in my opinion. Bioware's worth it if it's your only option though. Their characterization and intricacy of plot and storytelling give me hope for the video game industry as a whol. I'm still disappointed Joker isn't romanceable yet though. My Femshep wants her geekboy.
I all ready had it on my 360, but couldn't resist getting it again.
I like it, but miss the all the little things that carry over from ME1. The comic at the beginning just doesn't serve that game justice
Other than that, I think it looks a lot better on the PS3 (though the loading times do take a lot longer).

I downloaded the Free Game Trial and didn't get access to the digital comic that summed up the first game. As a result, having been an hour into the game I continued on after purchasing. I was completely in the dark and disengaged from the story and characters. I wasn't interested at all.
I have since downloaded the content and even watched it. I still feel disengaged. I mean to restart the game fresh so I get the full experience, but thus far haven't felt the least bit compelled to do so.
So far, I give it a thorough meh.
But I concede that this is not BioWare's fault. It is primarily Sony's fault as well as EA's for miscommunicating how the content would be handled.

I'll pick it up once I get ME1 on pc finished. It doesn't run great, but I want the see the story and all that jazz.
I bought it as soon as it came out for PS3, and I have to say it's absolutely amazing. After the disappointment that was Dragon Age, I was hesitant to put my faith in Bioware again, but it really is as good as everyone said it was. I'm a convert.
As far as I know, Mass Effect 3 is being released on all 3 platforms simultaneously.MasterOfWorlds said:
