Mass Effect News!

“Official” Release date is out. January 26th for the US and the 29th for Europe (/nelson Ha Ha /nelson)

Wow. Getting Dragon Age for Christmas. May not even be ready for it then. I was hoping for February so I recould really scoop out all the delicious Dragon Age innards before moving on.

New character announced, Samara

Between her and Tali, I like Samara more.

Wow, Jan 26th! I havent even finished a single playthrough of Dragon Age. Looks Ill be up to my neck in gaming goodness till Feb. at least.

Wow! Thanks for the heads-up :slight_smile:

She looks like she might one of those crazy girls that you thought might be fun to date.

I’ll stick with Tali. :slight_smile:

did it look like she was having an epic fight with Liara?

or am I just being racist in saying they all look alike? :smiley:

Man, the biotics look so much cooler in the sequel. It almost makes me regret playing an inflitrator.

Almost.

I’m happy I’ve got my sniper rifle equipped adapt =D

Too bad I can’t carry Tali’s epic shotgun over to ME2. I gave her the Spectre Shotgun 10 with Inferno rounds. Overheats after every shot, but that just means I can use damage boosters instead of heat sinks.

And, Tali doesn’t look like a crazy girl too? They are prolly both crazy. Just in different ways.

I had trouble telling who she was fighting too. But, I’ve yet to play ME1 (waiting on a PC version w/o Securom).

Now it’s availible for pre-order I have to decide where to buy it from. Annoyingly just like Dragon Age, each retailer is offering different bonus items. Although I’ll probably just buy the collectors edition. Sure it’s a little more expensive, but I’m a sucker for collectors editions.

You can switch classes at the start of ME2

Im currently debating if I should start ME1 all over again to play the charatcer I want to take with me to ME2. I put so many hours into my Infiltrator, but I kinda want to be an adept.

I made a bad choice with my Infiltrator’s weapon of choice. I will probably play once each as my male Shock Trooper and female Operative, though Operative is an awesome class and I don’t know that I can go back to just blasting geth in the face straight-up like I once did before.

Also, now that i know it’s my fault I screwed up my Infiltrator, it kind of annoys me. He should be my BEST character. But he uses a sniper rifle or pistol.

Well Liara and Tali seemed innocent. They both had just left the nest pretty much so maybe that makes me trust them more. And I think I meant Liara in the previous post (been a long time and I’m bad with names):o

Me too. Maybe we should try a game club or something of it. If there Isn’t already one here.

well went ahead and preordered with gamestop today, figured they give you two free things rather than Amazon’s one, I can live with one extra day for it getting to me (obviously got overnight shipping!)

though I also have the ME2 armor from Dragon Age going in, so I’ll have all kinds of freebees going in! :smiley:

I’ve grown attached to my Infiltrator and they have yet to talk about tech abilities, so I think I’ll be OK sticking with that.

I dare you not to squee when you see some of the voice actors.

Well, I knew about Hogan and Baldwin, but Tricia and Michael Dorn were nice surprises.

Man, all those voices sound fantastic. Tricia sounds like a freakin’ great ship’s computer.
