Still playing the **** out of this game, you guys should definitely do some sort of DLC review with the Hammerhead and Kasumi content coming up!

Mass Effect 2 is a great game, but this: “BioWare practically invented an entirely new genre: “Story-Driven Shooter”.” is complete BS.

What game isnt driven by its story? Serious Sam maybe.

I agree, Chris was a little off the chart I think when he mentioned that your decisions from ME1 don’t effect you in ME2. It’s untrue.

I’ve noticed heaps of small things, from story sequences, conversations, cut scenes and other elements that reflect on the choices I made in the first one.

Absolutely amazing experience so far, I can’t see anything topping this for GOTY.

Please ignore the ‘not’ in the first sentence of the above!!! I don’t know how it got there and it messed up my point 120%

Import feature not dissapointing? I don’t get it. It’s like you never played ME1.

With all those little encounters that make sense only if you import, ME2 managed to sell the “continue the story that begun in ME1 and move it into a trilogy” slogan to me. If it wasn’t for that, the game would feel pale I fear. Simplified and quite detached from the ME1 story (for the first 20 hours of the game at least), the RPG element is only saved by the characters living in the world. And you get a load more IF you have a ME1 save to import.

So even though the main storyline remains the same, import or not, the tiny elements that fill the ME universe are worth having. They make ME universe YOUR universe.

My opinion

Well, the game is missy alot RPG-wise that was present in the first game. And while I do occasionally miss checking the stats of everything I pick up, I think in the end it was for the best.

@EA HATER
Cool story, bro.
Anyways, picking this up as soon as I possibly can. I can safely say I haven’t been anticipating a game so much in the last decade.

@ EA Hater
What made Mass Effect great? And what’s gone in this one?

Everything that made mass effect great is gone. Bioware sold out!

I am probably the only one here who will say, “Eh… not interested”

All that I can say is that this workday cannot end quickly enough.
