That took a few seconds to sink in for me. xD

I wasn't particularly enjoying the fighting though... Everytime my friend got into a fight, only two or three people showed up and they went one on one. Why couldn't they just mob his ass?

Posted on 12-03-07 04:50 PM, in Mass Effect Link
I was so hyped over the game that I've bought it in anticipation of my 360 this christmas. Yes, i own the game before the 360, SO WHAT!?! I'M NOT OBSESSED!!!

Anyway, My friend also bought the game and him and I are going through it... The game is so much fun it's unbelievable.

I get bored very easily, as certain people I talk to on MSN will know. I played this game for 4 and a half hours straight and I did not get bored. I'm certain I'll complete it twice before I get my 360 and I won't get bored of it.

Fighting is awesome. It's so easy to change weapon and use abilities, and the whole time stopping thing while selecting a weapon/ability really helps. It's unfortunate that the time stop thing doesn't happen for moving units (Or I haven't figured out how to...) like the videos showed, but you can still order them around during battle which is useful for sending your allies to places where they would be more useful.

The enemy AI seems pretty good. They appear to use snipers for supression fire while their short-ranged combat units shoot and move forward, and they use cover well. Then again, it's very easy to use this technique against the enemy. It also takes a bit of thought to fight too, as running at the enemy with all guns blazing only works with one or two enemies.

I love the large range of enemies there are too. I think the main divide between the enemies is synthetic and organic, then each of those has some little sub groups. They all do their own little things, like some are great with biotics (The 'magical' abilities in the game) while others will use their weapons mostly.

It's insane how much you can modify! Firstly there's the leveling up of characters which you gain experience from fighting, talking to certain people or about certain things, or simply examining certain objects. Next there's the modification of weapons which can increase their power dramatically.

Talking about modification, just making the character is a very customizable process. You can change so much about your character, mainly what their face looks like. I don't know much about this as my account on my friend's XBox I chose the regular John Shephard. My friend told me a little about customizing the character and from what I've read in the guide book it's very elaborate. In the same set of screens, you also choose a class and personality for your character which can change how you should fight in battle and how others react to you.

The talking sequences and cutscenes are stunning, especially with the conversation wheel. If you use it correctly you can have very fluid and realistic conversations with people, although I have yet to make my character interupt someone.

My first problem with the game is that mainly during conversation, the character models appear to jump and skip as if animation is missing. It happens occasionally in gameplay too, like entering a lift causes your allies to jump to your position and everyone is suddenly facing the exit of the elevator.

Whenever the camera passes through an active model (Like another character) the model disappears, although this is probably to prevent the camera seeing inside the models and making it look glitchy.

There are also issues with framerate. As powerful as the 360 is, there are times in the game where it slows down, especially during combat with enemies that use a lot of Biotic or Tech abilities.

However, despite these little flaws, the game still rocks big time.

In the voice of Rodney Reynolds: This is a kickass product!

I'll possibly edit this very-mini-review later, this computer's keyboard has a buggared up space bar... I'm gonna get serious repetitive strain injury from it. It just sticks and doesn't press in very well.

EDIT: Changed keyboard.

*Is jealous*



Mine kinda sucks compared to that... 2.8 gHz dual core processor, 1 gig RAM, 250 GB hard drive, ATI Radeon X800 graphics 128 MB... Oh well, it works and it plays the kinda games I play well, except for anything heavy with models like RTS games.

Won't be getting a XBox until Christmas, but my gamertag will very likely be RYjet911. If not that, it'll be Teundusia.

I doubt I'd play much Halo 3 online... Never really liked it multiplayer.I'd be too busy playing Mass Effect anyway.

Oh no! Now people can't play billiards properly because they aren't allowed to use forcing in it! :O

Seriously though, this is probably the reason 1984 was written. Things are going too Big Brother as it is (Such as in London, on an average day you'll be seen by fifty cameras) and technically people would have to be watching other people to enforce such laws.

Heh... I just noticed... People would have to enFORCE the law. Therefore, nothing could be done about it if someone forced something, because then the police and government would be breaking it too, eventually leading to rebellion among the people until the law was abolished!

The only record I can remember is a 5:22 speed run of Super Mario Bros about 4 years ago... To date I've been unable to reaccomplish such a record while recording it.

And still, it's beaten by 16 seconds by some other guy on speeddemosarchive.

Well in battle you get the four weapons you've equipped to each character: One pistol, one shotgun, one assault rifle and one sniper rifle. If you press start and go to the equipment menu you can change which of the four types of weapon you want, depending on whether you have picked up any yet.

I'm getting an XBox 360 with Halo 3, but that isn't the reason I want one because Halo 3 sucks. I did however buy Mass Effect about a month ago and have had very limited access to playing it, so I truely can't wait to play it PROPERLY tomorrow.

I'm also getting some other little bits, although I've been given no more specific details than that.

Well, I did mine, but my soundcard has fucked up again and caused MAJOR bad quality... And there's no way I'm redoing it. It might just be the fact I've also got my volume turned up a bit and the fact the mic is very close to my mouth, but meh.
