If you have a PC that can run it, theres no point buying the 360 version. It's shit in comparison.

I still have a ME1 completed save game on my 360, but I also completed it on the PC, which is the format i'm playing ME2 on too.

I downloaded it. I also bought the collectors edition, so no qualms from me whatsoever.

Oh and it's fucking incredible. Probably gonna be the game of the year and it's only January. Slick move, Bioware.

So what was the final "extras" you got from your old save brisk? There was talks a while back about it using the same plot lines from the previous game that you did and keeping certain people alive, but they cant possibly do that, there was so many decisions to make before :s

That's a ballsy statement, brisk. Considering, as you said, it's only January and there are some high-profile games coming out soon...

yeah you're right, buying one version should entitle you to free copies of every other version.

The 360 version is the one with my main profiles on, so it makes sense that would be the one I would use as my MAIN game.

Keep trolling, its funny really seeing how little you try to get ahold of but then how quickly you post a flame. Its also funny you think industry guys dont pirate games, as if there is some kind of code of conduct... I suggest you stay away from the various places I post for fear of being raped, then.

I just picked ME2 up. Two discs!? Fallout 3 wasn't even two discs. Is this game massively enormous?

One way to find out...

started playing mass effect 1 last night. (pc) really great game so far. just got control of the normandy and have flown to the first planet.

i was talkin to a friend the other day about how there are very few futuristic rpg's that are not jrpg's... he asked if id played this... and i had not. got it for cheap ($70 nzd)

(o'diem) i figured as a developer you would have a higher level of respect for the amount of effort involved and not pirate... hell im not even a developer (yet) and i dont do it... kinda a shit perspective if ya ask me... but i cant tell if you are being serious or not......

Yes but with a 360 I can sit on the sofa with my feet up and play on a 60 inch TV. How is that shit?

Spaz.

so, anyway. odium embarrassing himself yet again aside, is mass effect 1 worth playing before getting this?

Mass Effect is quite possibly my favourite game ever. In fact I could call it Massturbate Effect.

hay mr doom, i read a review that said the game would have a lot more meaning and you would get more out of it if you had played the first.

so far, its quite fucking good...

Its probably one of the best games of the past decade, just be sure to give it chance because until you get off the Citadel, its a bit meh (about an hour in).

Oh, and no u.

will pick up ME1 secondhand.

No. I'm saying I ordered a copy of ME2 online in December for £17.99 at play.com and it came by post early, seeing as its out Friday anyway its not a big deal. I'll be picking it up Friday anyway on 360 as thats where my stats are saved.
