So - anyone played Mass Effect 2 yet?Just in the throes of a final run-through if 1 to remember what it's about and generate a decent character to take into 2 but wondered if anyone has given it a run yet?

Yup, I haveit's an outstanding game - a 9/10, BUT, it's missing various bits from teh first that I prefered (an inventory for one thing) and it's steadily moving from ActionRPG to a pure action game with a great plot.
Also, there are some NASTY bugs in it
Still a brilliant game, though!

That's kind of what I read...As long as they've got rid of the sodding Mako though... Think it's a purchase for this weekend.

Nah...but it's quite easy to work around once you cotton on to the fact that there's absolutely jack sh*t to be gained by all that exploration.

not if you wanted to do all the collection missions - Salarian ID tags, Matriach Writings etc etcand there were a good few hidden outposts and things if you went hunting about

But in terms of time invested/reward they're not any great shakes...I'm not a hardcore completist so can do without a few achievements for the sake of a slicker game.

really? I think it ranks up there as one of my favourites...I hated Bioshock though. Loved System Shock, and when I heard it was the "spiritual successor" I got all excited...
I hardly used the plasmids, only when it was plot specific; the weapon upgrade system felt tagged on, it was too easy and so on... I still can't understand why it's so popular.
In other news, STALKER 3 is out on friday.

I just loved the atmos, the style, gameplayI never played System Shock, so I wasn't playing it thinking "wahat a rip-off"
ME just left me cold. I'd heard so many good things about it and I settled down prepared to lose myself in it, and it was talking, bit of talking, some more talking, ooh choose a response, talking, ... I think it was an hour before I landed on the first planet. Or maybe it just felt like it.

Yeah, I see what you mean about that... I read the prequel book before it came out just for the hell of it, soso when it came out, I was straight into it...
If you ever get the chance, pick up a copy of System Shock 2. Hopefully GOG.com will get it in soon
