josh you gonna get mass effect 2?

You're gonna fly through the first 30 or so levels.

I want to play ME2, but I haven't played ME1 yet.

definitely don't even bother with me2 until you play the first

I know I'm already on level 17 or so. And I haven't played much the last 2 days

That's pretty much what I figured.

you could always just watch a video summary of it.

I actually want to play the game, not get the sparknotes version of it.

I'm going to beat dragon age, then beat me1, then play me2.

nah its def better to play me1 first one of the best parts of 2 is seeing how your decisions in the first have affected things

im pretty far into it, finished all the loyalty missions and about to go get the **** i need to go through that relay. so far its prob my favorite game ive ever played.

dragon age was p cool but mass effect just blows it outta the water

So me2 bases itself on your gameplay in me1?

i played me1 on 360 and me2 on pc. i didnt want my decisions reflected anyway though.

well nothing except story details and different people being alive/dead or liking you/disliking you

why wouldnt you josh? i think thats one of the coolest parts, it truly feels like its YOUR game yknow.

So I've heard, but I still wanna beat it, I'm enjoying it a lot and I already own ME1 so I figure I have a good game line set up for quite awhile.

yeah those 3 games are the only ones ive played since dragon age came out. after i beat dragon age i went back and played through me1 again and finished that just in time for me2.

i dont think id want the same decisions. i wanted a fresh game.

[QUOTE=gmoneyguy;17797993]Thats pretty damn cool[/QUOTE]

yeah, cant wait to see how much more your decisions carry over into the 3rd one

[QUOTE]i dont think id want the same decisions. i wanted a fresh game.[/QUOTE]

yeah thats why i just played through it again before 2 came out

how did it set everything up for you? does it still have the alien council or the human one?

99% sure the default is

human council

wrex is dead

kaiden is dead if you play a male, ashley is dead if you play female

just fairly basic stuff like that is all they seemed to do

k we need a page turn.

it's worth playing the first, it isn't just that your story and character carry over, or that you get certain bonuses based on what you played the first time around, but the second game references the first frequently.

constantly

yeah the 100k cred bonus was nice

so much scifi gaming for me lately

what else you been playing?

star trek online mostly

any fun?

yeah, very good. its a great change from the standard mmo formula. the combat is actually enjoyable.

the technobabble and pewpewpews are glorious too

the review i read said the ground combat was ridiculously simple and easy

depends. it's much more intensive than any other mmo. that said, it's still just clicking buttons and moving around to get better positioning.

you hardly have to do ground combat at all though, which is nice.

i just cant get into mmo's. the only one i ever liked was star wars galaxies until the combat revamp happened. i liked the sandbox style and completely player run economy, it was very interesting,

maybe try eve? i find it to be fairly boring but the entire game is player run. economy, story, wars, etc
