Why is this 65 dollars?
Since when is it 65 dollars? I got mine for about 35, and even the special editions are only 50 right now.
I loved the hell out of this game, and I sure as hell loved the hell out of Miranda in the Engineering Core.
Since Gamestop over here decided to make it 65 dollars. There are no new ones selling for lower than 59.99 at Gamestop or Toys R Us. It's completely lame. I guess I will have to wait till I can afford to spend my lunch and travel expenses for the regular edition.Quote:

EA Store has the Digital Deluxe Edition for $49 dollars right now, and last I checked it was even cheaper on EBay.Quote:

There were a few deaths that I was just really wtfing hardcore. I had an "omg Aerith/Aeris no" moment where both the freaking characters I used the most died. I mean what the hell. Okay, so technically I had something to do with one of those -- but still! efffff that
It was a great game. I am very map challenged and got lost countless times and the marker didn't even help half of the time. I spent most of the game wandering around in the tank with very piss poor driving skills. I just don't know. The conversations were really amusing and for once I didn't mind sitting through long dialogues to hear people explain stuff. I really got in to the story. Now THAT'S an rpg done right. The only thing I can say is, it definitely needed more elcor and more variety of music.
I also think the character of Commander Shepard is better as a female...maybe I'm bias. I just can't imagine playing the game as a dude now. The voice fit everything that was going on and the look of the character. There was a point where my squad were all standing all heroic like and shiz and we all had colorful armors on with our helmets. It was amusing cuz it was like we were some ghetto version of the power rangers. Anywayz yeah, great game. I hope the second is better.
Mass Effect 1 SpoilerWrex's death is avoidable if you get enough persuasion points and complete his sidequest!Quote:

The second improves a lot, but still has room for improvement. You will probably like it.Quote:

Anyway, the first new DLC pack is confirmed for late March. Containing the Hammerhead hover tank, and five missions using it. This DLC is free for all people with the Cerberus Network. We'll get to see how much they improved the vehicles.

So far my opinion on the story and gameplay is good however I too would definitely agree with the fact that the element scanner was a terrible idea. At least in ME1 you'd hit a button and the planet got scanned for you and came back with results also, I know a lot of people disliked the mako for "clumsy controls" ect but frankly I actually enjoyed the mako levels because it made it interesting and at least going through a planet surface finding element deposits and doing the little 4 button memory game was more pleasurable than the scanner minigame. God help me but I think they birthed the most boring minigame ever created that was actually necessity to complete the game.
I do not comprehend the thinking behind that scanning business. I mean really.
"Okay guys, we've got a hell of a game here, it's pure gold. What can we do to make it a bit crap?"
Maybe they wanted to put it in so that when/if it's removed from ME3 people will be ecstatic.
I don't really see what the big deal with the scanners is. Mine a handful of planets at most and you have enough resources to upgrade everything you want. I spent no more than a couple of hours on it throughout the entire game.
