The Mass Effect thread
I have played through Mass Effect 1 already, and it was fantastic.
I was on the playthrough of the second game recently (for the first time), and I am literally super amazed at how epic this game is and will probably be with the next installment coming up!
I'm suuuper stoked for Mass Effect 3. Here is a link to the trailer:

I like how Reck has taken to trolling every thread that's not his own. And by like, I mean it's annoying.

I'm glad ME2 derailed the series to the point where my expectations of this are low. If they're smart they'll take advantage of this and blow me away with something akin to what ME2 should have beenAlyG: If he's not a joke account then what is he?

I like how you call it trolling when someone points out that this really belongs in the video game thread and shouldn't have been made as it's own separate thread.ReaperCharlie wrote:I like how Reck has taken to trolling every thread that's not his own.

At first I was really surprised that somebody thought ME2 sucked, and then I read that article.
OMFG that guy is so right. I never even thought of how good it could have been until he showed me how bad it really was.
/facepalm for BioWare
But ME1 really was one of my favorite games of all time. Soooo... how can they fix that stuff in ME3?Show"Take me to Pleasure Town!" "Look, the most Glorious Rainbow Ever!" "Do me on it!" -

No way dude!
I really like the Jack character and all, but I'd have to say that I have to give Tali the edge here.
Granted, I liked the "pick up Jack" mission a LOT and I was like "woooo I'mbustin' a crazy dude outta prison! Yeah boieeeee" throughout almost the whole thing. And the end part of that mission whereJack faces off with Miranda about me giving her access to the Cerberus mainframeor w/e, was good too. That was an excellent mission. I only predicted thatthey were gonna try to trap me in there too, RIGHT before I walked into the room where he goes "btw, ur stayin heer forever kekeke" over the radio.
I guess it's just that I'm partial to characters that you have to uncover more of. I mean, yeah you have to pry past Jack's tough exterior and all to get the softcore scared little girl underneath the all powerful biotic murderer, but there's kind of that same thing to do with Tali and plus there's the whole physical barrier you have to overcome too. I think one of the biggest turn-offs for me is thatyou can just go have casual sex with Jack at that one point, and then it's sort of like an anti-climax, cause you're like "awww its just a cutscene, nothing really happened and I don't feel closer to the character in any way".
But I can see where you're coming from and this is just my opinion. I am a huge proponent of the "show Tali's face in ME3" motion. hehShow"Take me to Pleasure Town!" "Look, the most Glorious Rainbow Ever!" "Do me on it!" -

Haha, I can't argue with you there, they're pretty cool.Umbrage wrote:And with biotic powers. Biotic powers are a big turn-on for me.
I actually like Liara T'Soni the best out of all of your crew members so far. I really like the fact that she's like 130 years old but looks 25.
It's kind of weird though when you see her in the second game, she seems all grown up and stuff like it's been ages and ages and she's grown so much and started her own information broker company and all that jazz, but two years to her is like a drop in the bucket. That was a little strange but other than that, her character is totally the bomb.
Plus, have you seen her voice actress? She's cool too: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ali_Hillis
Dude just look at her video game experience. WWTTTFFF I'm jealous.
She's like the female Frank Welker of games (well, not quite. that dude is insane)!
And if Grunt had Wrex's personality, he'd be one of my favorites as well.
No that's actually just some fan art somebody made of some hot biotic chick with a gun.Umbrage wrote:By the way:
