Is this game worth buying a 360 for? Because the game looks amazing to be honest.

EDIT: Or buying a really good computer.


Depends on your budget, but if it's decent enough: I would say yes.

Yeah, it's HIGHLY recommended that you play ME1 first for a multitude of reasons. (See previous posts.)

Mh does anyone know what happens when you played through the game, then replayed the game but only finished like a 3rd of it and then use that savegame for mass effect 2?
What happens to all those things that I did in the first try but didnt even get to in the second one?

The game makes a save when you finish the game ( when you get the picture of shepard, a speace station and a planet in the background (red if you were renegade and blue if you were a paragon).

Only that save can be used in ME2. If you almost completed it again, it doesn't matter. Only that save, that is made at the very end of your playthrough will matter.


K, thanks for clearing that up. Got any link to any confirmation? (I don't disbelieve you, I was quite sure of the same myself, but still)

Does anyone know if you transfer your ME1 save it'll let you reroll your character? I don't really want to play a soldier again.

yes

A couple of days ago: this vid was released:

http://www.gametrailers.com/video/exclusive-sci-mass-effect/60873

I didn't bother posting at the time, 'cause it wasn't that awesome, but I'd recommend you to watch it now, just so you can watch the awesome part 2 that was released today:

http://www.gametrailers.com/video/exclusive-sci-mass-effect/60946

Wow, tons of info to discuss. Thoughts?

Since we're posting new things, here is a real gem with a lot of SPOILERS:
http://tvgry.pl/?ID=808
It shows the gameplay, the new mini-games, uncharted worlds and more! And a few interesting thing are said, I'll translate:
+ Show Spoiler +

You manually control the Normandy. You have limited gas and need to refill every now and then.
To explore an uncharted world, you come up to a planet, send out a probe and then play a mini game like a scan, to find the anomaly(which is the point of interest where you will land)
As always you choose 2 squad members to go on the mission with you.
Once you're done with that you choose your gear (weapons). Now here is gets complicated. The narrator says that there are very few options on weapons available. He also says that when you equip them for a mission. They don't show you the stats like damage, clip size, shots before overheating etc.
There is no Mako. No driving around searching the map. You land exactly where the action is going to be.
There are less side missions, but they are all unique and varied between eachother.
You burn through ammo clips fast, but you also find them very often. each weapon has it's own ammo.


Hope you liked the spoilers as much as I did ^^.

Latham, this thread wouldn't be the same without you.

Srsly though, although everything was in Polish, () I gotta say that that was like opening a dictionary as far as new info goes. I mean most of these things is just things you've read, but damn, now that you get to see them, they look amazing!

+ Show Spoiler +

Let's make a point-to-point sum-up, shall we?
1. About the Normandy, that much I knew, although it looks sort of like Sid Meier's Pirates to me. o.0 That's not a bad thing however. Should be cool.
2. Scanning the planets, well Bioware has only showed us like 5 second clips of it, so this really surprised me about how much you could do with it. HYPE!!!
3. LOL at the loading info. "There are no decent galactic dating services. To have a shot at romance, you need to talk to people."
4. The squad: I knew that you would have ten to choose from, but not who all of them were. The 6 I mentioned in the OP were the ones that Bioware has publicly mentioned, but here, and also in many other clips, Mordin and Jacob are in your squad. The final two are still a mystery. Oh, and dit it just say that Subject Zero's real name was Jack? What!?
5. Changing loadout just before landing. Huh. Not expected, but I guess it's much better than having to go down to the engineering bay just to fix it manually, so I'm happy.
6.
there are very few options on weapons available. He also says that when you equip them for a mission. They don't show you the stats like damage, clip size, shots before overheating etc.

Interesting.
7. No Mako? Huh. I swear I saw Shephard and his squad standing beside the Mako on an uncharted world in a previous video. Not sure which though. Hmm... this one's up in the air...
8. New decryption system looks fun.
9.
There are less side missions, but they are all unique and varied between eachother.
You burn through ammo clips fast, but you also find them very often. each weapon has it's own ammo.

Okay, not much to say about that that hasn't already been said.
10. Shephard looks like a cyborg in that vid. o.0
11. Combat looks sexy as always.
12. Really like all the details in the terrain. Not just the graphical things, but also the minor bridge controls, explosive devices, etc.
13. That Target Code minigame looked like... I don't know, like nothing I've ever seen before, and I don't really understand it either. Latham, care to translate? + Show Spoiler +
Pretty please with a li'l jelly on top?

14. Throughout the video, Shephard keeps picking up stuff that adds cash or updates his Journal etc. Does that mean that there are like achievement hunter style easter eggs to find?
15. Okay, so he got a bunch of credits and then left? Was that it? Or was there any real story involved in this little hideout?
16. Anyone know what the little shuttle is called?
17. Having a Mission Complete sum-up screen seems pretty cool. Don't know why really, but I've always liked that. Feels like you get to take pride in what you've just acomplished. xD
18. Shephard looks KICK-ASS in a science-suit.

I think it''s a good system, but yeah, I've been wondering what Bioware is gonna invent as a logical reason for it in-game.

Haha glad you liked it ^^.

Wow, I'll adress your questions, since you asked so nicely :p.

Actually I was hanging around the Bioware boards and I probably have a good educated guess who are the last 2 squad members:
The 8 visible there + + Show Spoiler +
Tali who has been confirmed by bioware themselves and Legion, that geth that is stalking you, if you want proof, here it is: http://www.xbox360achievements.org/game/mass-effect-2/achievements/
It shows that there are 2 specific odd achievements: Friend or Foe, and A house divided. Notice that they have the exact same value as the "recuit X" and "Gain the trust of X" achievements

Also Bioware confirmed there will be 1 DLC squad member at launch, and the DLC will "most likely" be free or in their own exact words: "The DLC crew member will not be charged money for"
And yeah, SuZe (Subject Zero's name is indeed Jack)

There might be a Mako in a few very specific missions(my personal guess, of course), but overall for uncharted worlds as far as the narrator says, there isn't one.

Indeed the decryption now looks mega fun. And that Target mini-game is also a type of decryption mini game. I'll translate what the narrator had to say about that target mini game "There is a picture in the top part of the mini game. I assume he's talking about that small brick with a wall of text on it. Basically the texts scroll down, and you have to find a picture that matches (or in this case, 3 picutres that match) the original one on top.
Btw, that the exact same principle like in that "hacking game". You look at the pictures showed when you hover your mouse over them, and look for a matching one. It's the same principle here.

Yeah I think they really did a nice job on the graphics :p

As far as Achievements go see for yourself I provided the link to the achivements.

In that mission yes, he got 2000 kilograms or whatever of Platinium (mineral, just like the one you had to mine in ME1) got some credits and left. The minerals will be used to upgrade your gear as you have heard in those videos you posted or in this one (sorry forgot which one's you posted, but i saw them both ) http://www.shackvideo.com/?id=16646

In other missions you will get information, maybe some link to one of your squadmate's past, money, minerals, sub-plots etc.

oh yeah, if you're interested in more information, check out this dude's youtube page. He has almost every video about mass effect 2 http://www.youtube.com/user/javierabegazo

What can I say? Thanks a lot! How come you find everything on so different places all the time? I usually focus on the bigger websites (Like Bioware and Gametrailers in particular) and check very often, (and I mean very often) but you just find awesome stuff on websites that are small and unheard of. (In comparison at least)

The difference between the 26th and 29th wouldn't really be big for me. I'm working during the week and would have little time to play anyway.

Yeah, this sounds like it will sort of be a hassle. I don't also see the point about controlling the ship manually, unless they are going to tie it in in some important fashion. I mean, you aren't the pilot of the ship after all, you pick where to go and Joker (i think that was his name at least) flies you there. It seems like a "oh that's kind of cool" feature that is actually pretty useless.
