Time to ride the crazy chair!
It not only looks better but I think this is the best running UE3 game yet. For a developer known for technical hitches, what BioWare did with Mass Effect 2 is nothing short of amazing.
You should have acted
I think Joker was over used this time. I liked the all interaction with EDI in fact i think the best moment with Joker is when EDI "jokes" about liking humans on their knees, and Joker's look right after, it was fantastic but having Joker standing in the hatch firing a gun when Sheppard dives onto the ship at the end reeked of hey lets make Seth Green happy or something. Fly the fucking ship asshole.

I don't think it's really so bad Remember a few days ago he just got to watch as all those cunts abducted everyone on the ship and nearly him, I think I'd be hankering for a little revenge too
You should have acted
ya well i think he was needlessly used in that scene as well. It felt tacked on. And the setup for it was blindingly obvious too. OK, entire away team, onto this shuttle for some mission. Never mind that only two people have ever left the ship before with Sheppard, now you're all going. I still liked the game a whole hell of a lot, but when they got so much right it just magnifies what they did wrong.Originally Posted by Thief Silver
By the way, Slam as a skill is very handy. When you combine it with someone else using Pull however, it's a whole other level of awesome.

Drive By
Shockwave is the greatest, crowd control via space bowling. Never got old throwing aliens over ledges. And I didn't realize that was Carrie-Ann Moss doing the voice of Aria. Have they said how many endings there are? And what's the set up if you make a new character for 2?

Infiltrator is overpowered, AI Hacking is WAAAY too good against any robots, tactical cloak along with sniper slowdown is massive rape damage and incinerate is really good as well.
You sir, are a hideous hermaphroditical character which has neither the force and firmness of a man, nor the gentleness and sensibility of a woman.
goty
i drink it up!
I'll second Shockwave being amazing. I'm playing as Vanguard and maxed it out instead of charge. Charge is pretty good when you're at close quarters because of the area effect damage. It's gotten me out of a bind many times. And pull is just fun to watch. This is such a great game (and series). Maybe my favorite in all of gaming. I'd love to see them develop a game with Thane as the lead (or another drell). His world sounds really interesting.
Drive By
I don't remember the end of the first very well, the last fight in 2 is really cool but it's stupidly simple. It had the potential to be much more intense even though I finished it with nothing but 10 shotgun shells left.
Skeptical.
My final battle lasted all of 10 seconds. Two shots from the Cain mini-nuke Whee.
My opinion of the game is diminishing quickly as I go through a second playthrough. I think it's better to play again after you've spent some time away from it. The story continues to be kinda lame. I like the impassioned speech before the final sequence, where I relate all the challenges and trials we've been through...uh, like what? Most of the characters weren't around for them, some I just picked up the mission before, and there's only like two story bits before that speech anyhow. Ends up feeling contrived.
It doesn't help that male Shephard isn't voiced nearly as well as the female, and his facial animations are pretty corny.
