Mass Effect 2 Details :)

[FordGT90Concept]

I doubt Assassin's Creed 2 is worth buying seeing as the original was rubbish. It was more eye candy than game.

 

[Wrigleyvillain]

Well I bought it and really felt I got my money's worth. That said, I paid $5.

 

[FordGT90Concept]

There's your problem.

What You Didn't Know About Mass Effect 2

What You Didn't Know About Mass Effect 2

Weapons: Dammit!
Customizations: Meh.
Missions: Sounds like Dragon Age (not necessarily a good thing).
RPG Elements: LMFAO! And I hate it. Mass Effect and Dragon Age don't mix. They shouldn't try. I'm preparing to be disappointed.
Story: Interesting...
Social Applications: Bah (another mention of Dragon Age)! Single player games don't need "social" anything.
Martin Sheen: Holy Bat Shitman! Sheen would be a great voice over actor for the CEO of Cereberus.


My hopes have not wanned much but they most certainly haven't risen after reading that...

Thank God some people still apreciate good and original games, like Assassin's Creed.

i think he seems to be saying the exact opposite

well that actually was a big part of the game, and i wouldn't call it rubbish. it really was one of the first of its kind, and from the way they're marketing the 2nd one, it seems that they're making up for the negative elements in the first one in the second one. go look at the 360 and ps3 reviews they've been out for some time now and they've been pretty good.

I know, I did that on purpose.
Fortunately, anyone can badmouth a game as hard as they want, even if it's a damn good one, without a single bit of reason to do so.
That's freedom of speech for you.

What! No Baldwin?! SAG must be notified immediately, this is ridiculous. The Sheen's are always trying to upstage the Baldwins! Emilio Estevez knows what's up.

I wish they would add a first-person view into this game.

that would be wierd

i like seeing the back of my manly character running about kicking butt.

lol why would you need another 5870. the one card already runs everything perfect except for crysis, which you don't seem to need to play right seeing as u've got more than enough on your plate. there's still ass creed 2 and me 2 next month.

Yeah. But that will be about mid-next year anyways if im going crossfire. And i thought AC II for PC is released in Mar 2010.. The PC Version came out for UK on the 19th Nov 2009. But Globally it was never released sadly

AC II should be awesome since everyone i know who has played it on the consoles said its much better than the first..

i'm not quite sure where you got the infomation about the release date in the uk, but if torrent sites are anything to go by, it hasn't been released. otherwise, you can be sure it'd be out by now (2 weeks from 19 nov). and yeah i got it mixed up with me 2. ac2 will be out in march.

definitely psyched about the game though. if they need a couple more months to tune it up instead of releasing a broken game, i'd gladly wait.

tbh i share some of fort's misgivings regarding that interview that was posted. it does look like nothing has changed much. and quoting dragonage, for good or bad, is purely a marketing gimmick, so i wouldn't worry too much about it.

Go here : http://pc.ign.com/objects/143/14302492.html

Under the About this game section. There should a be a thing called Game Editions. There it say Nov 20 it was released for PC in UK (Sorry it was not 19 Nov it was 20 Nov.. My bad.)

And yes. I hope they optimize it well and remove any bugs if there are any. 9.2 Rating in IGN so dont think it will be a failure.

And also Mass Effect 3 has been confirmed for 2011

is there anywhere else that suggests that the game has been released in the uk already? it doesn't make sense to have release dates in different markets so far apart. and a 5min search on google doesn't turn up any reviews at all about the pc version, so it's unlikely that it's been released.

might be a mistake on ign's part?

go look at the 360 and ps3 reviews they've been out for some time now and they've been pretty good.

Assassin's Creed got exceptional reviews too, as did Far Cry 2. Both games sucked though.

A short list:
-Couldn't follow the plot because all the character names sounded the same.
-The same combat strategy worked in every situation (counters).
-There was very little gameplay variation (world map, local map, do some things on the side, kill someone important, run away, repeat).
-The music was uterly boring and a game like that with a lot of boring travel needs good music to make it livable.
-The basis for the game (reliving the past to retreive memories) is silly.
-The controls were designed for console and were quite horrid on PC.
-It is barely worth finishing once, never mind more than once.

Need I continue?

Update

The Plot in Mass Effect 2 is -

Mass Effect 2 takes place in the year 2185, two years after the conclusion of Mass Effect. With the Reaper invasion stopped and Saren and the geth defeated, Commander Shepard learns that entire human colonies are mysteriously vanishing. Teaming up with the human supremacist organization Cerberus in the investigation, Shepard will also journey across the galaxy to recruit "up to a dozen of the galaxy's most dangerous operatives" to face this new threat. Locations include the asari colony world of Illium, and Omega, a space mining station in the Terminus Systems which harbors the worst of galactic society.
The insect-like Collectors are among the main villains of the plot. They have Reaper-based technology and are believed to be working for the Reapers, and are responsible for the disappearance of human colonies which are being harvested for an unknown purpose.


This is gonna be awesome.
