    Mass Effect PC

    The craftsmanship in that game was amazing, Very good storyline. I hope they make another. Good soundtrack too. I crapped my pants at the ending, Well the ending I got, I should say.

    I just finished this game on the 360 last night. Great story, great voice work, great music etc. Very involving game. I wish the side quests weren't so damn repetitive, and I wish the game itself was harder. I played on the hardest setting and breezed through it. The story is what kept me going, though.

    How did you finish? Overall I finished as Paragon, but I made the Renegade decision to sacrifice the Council. So, in the end, the humans were left to lead the galaxy and I chose the Captain as the head of the Council

    I played as a Vanguard. Maybe I should have played as Engineer or something, because I absolutely raped everything in my path. Humans, aliens, Geth, those crazy ass motherfrikken' giant worms that come out of the ground, you name it, I slapped it around like a 13-year-old schoolgirl. They all had to answer to my super galactic Vanguard shotgun skillz, but none of them had a good answer. BAM! Oh, what's that? Yukon Trooper just blew your stupid alien head off.

    For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream.

    Thats right how I ended too, I picked the captain too. I can't remember my class, but as my 2nd class, I picked shock trooper. I think it might have been soldier.

    Any of you know how many endings this game got?

    I finished it just as you did, on a Soldier [with the not-commando specialisation, can't remember the name, I've played PL version...].
    Am I the only person who think that this was waaaaaay to short for and RPG? I played on def difficulty and completed the game without taking breaks :/

    PS. The PL version was one of the best translation of a game I've ever played, this time they even used voice actors and a translation that made sense ~.~

    I had fun with the game, and tried to get all of the side quests. So I spent a lot of time randomly running around and talking to people. I did do it on normal Diff, as an engineer, so I may play through it again and see what changes.

    I really loved the voice acting, and thought it was really funny that Seth Green was Joker.

    I've heard enough of Seth Green from Family Guy and Robot Chicken ... all I could think about during Joker's conversational bits was Chris Griffin.

    But yeah, the voice acting throughout was quite good. Keith David as Captain Anderson was especially awesome ... very distinctive voice, perfect for the part.

    Just finished on PC as Paragon. Great game but I agree, it was too short for an RPG. Great story. I don't think you have too many choices at the end though. You have to be an idiot to pick the counsel that never believed in you or the Embassador who was a total jerk. I may play again and save the council just to see what happens.

    You'll have to play the game at least twice to get all the endings. You can either end as Paragon or Renegade, and you also have Paragon or Renegade decisions to make in the end. The decisions include: making Seren soot himself in the head, sacrificing the Council, and choosing who heads the Council at the end of the game. So, you'll have to end the game as Paragon or Renegade, save before you make the decisions, and then choose all the combination of outcomes.

    For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream.

    I love how they share the games for PC. I hope they do the same with Final Fantasy XIII. Unreal engine owns!


    All systems sold. Will be back after Sandy Bridge!

    The game was very well done. Great story, great effects and cinematics, voices and chat options were realistic. But, the storming the bunker missions were too short! The combat was pretty easy to get through. But then I need to remind myself that this game is not a FPS, but a RPG.

    I can't wait for a sequel.

    It's coming, but you're right, it can't come fast enough!

    It's like reading a really good novel, but the second part hasn't been released yet, and you just NEED it.

    Didn't this game have a severe form of copy protection which limits the amount of times you can install it on your computer?

    lol, Well I try to normally make all my characters look similar. I wish you could pick your race of your character. That would be pretty cool.
