Mass Effect 2

Mass Effect 2 is an excellent adventure, deep game play experience packed full of action and magical landscapes filled, if you own a Xbox360 you must buy this game. It's every bit the smart, sexy, thrilling, moving, funny, intense competition, we hope to be.
 
So, I thought I had finished up the game, but was clued in that i could go back and explore the shadow broker's command center. Nothing earth shattering... but I LOL'd at least twice reading all the dossier files. I mean, Legion as a gamer (and has the all time high score in "Call of Honor: Medal of Duty")? classic. Garrus listens to music from Fleet and Flotilla on his headset during battle? Jack submits poetry to journals? This is the kind of universe deepening stuff that I love. Although I was a little upset that the files don't include anything on Wrex, Liara, or Kaidan, and don't tell us anything about who Aria was pre-Omega.

Also, count me in as another vote to see more of Kaidan/Ashley in the last DLC.

I loved LotSB. Every minute of it was top-quality ME2. And yeah, hanging out at the command center is excellent; the dossiers are terrific.
 
Yeah, those dossiers were surprisingly insightful...if a little voyeuristic. I'm not sure what was more telling; Miranda googleing the "correct" psychological advice to give her sister because she doesn't know how to just talk to her or Tali and her guilty masturbation.
 
Oh I like Kaiden, he's a very nice guy, much like Jacob in ME2. He's just not the most charismatic or memorable character. Again, much like Jacob.
 
^Bit of a Catch 22 though isn't it? If they made the most charismatic and interesting character the one you start with right from the off (and survives for than 5 minutes) then it'd only make it harder to get people to like all the other companions you pick up along the way.

That was sort of the problem with Dragon Age for me. Though I'm sure others might not agree, I thought Leliana, Morrigan and Alister were the most interesting characters of the bunch and you get them more or less in the beginning.
 
Yep, I pretty much kept the three of them with me the whole time, without much regard for part balance. Worked out pretty good from a practicality standpoint though.
 
They don't need new composers, ME1 and ME2 were fantastic soundtracks, I say finish the trilogy with the same composers.
 
Wow. I can think of more inappropriate composers to choose, but I'm having a real hard time coming up with one off the top of my head.
