I am excited for Mass Effect 2 -- I hope it delivers when it comes out!

i know this is SUPER late but i just finished ME1...what choice did you all make? spare the council....let the council die?
i let the council die i had to beat saren and the ship.
now i will do the DLC and then onto ME2
Yea im behind but i got caught up playing Fallout3 for like 4 months and never played any other games that is why i am just finishing ME1

Overlord Mission DLC available now on the marketplace for 560 points.

Mass Effect 2 is definitely a better game. I just finished it and really enjoyed it more than ME1. The DLC, prior to the one that came out yesterday, extended the game and was pretty fun. The crash site was nothing special, but it was kind of cool, though.

The DLC that came out yesterday was stupid. It was extremely short and easy. I beat it in about 30 minutes.

Damn, you must have just sat there and ran right through it. Most people are saying that it'll take you a few hours to complete and it's longer than the last Kasumi DLC which they clocked about an hour.

It took me a few hours to through the Kasumi DLC because I took my time with it. Same will go for Overlord.

Might have been closer to an hour, but if you have all your upgrades then the five missions are incredibly easy and you're pretty much untouchable. There is very little action and is mostly investigations. I thought this latest DLC was pretty bad.
 
:mad:

GET TOUCHIN'!

yea i gotta get to it,im too busy with Red Dead Redemption and the World Cup soccer games, i have 6 hours of games to watch when i get home everyday!
 
Finished the new content last night, took maybe a couple of hours on veteran. Admittedly I started a fresh game to get to it, so when I tackled it,my character was a little underdeveloped! I did take some time off to fetch Mordin to unlock the tech lab before hand, but on the whole it was really quite enjoyable.

I wont offer details that would give any spoilers, but some of it was quite sinister and the last portion is particularly mad! I took the paragon ending, but Im looking forward to trying it again later with the renegade.

Also downloaded the alternate costume packs for the other characters, but I havent acquired their services yet!
 
Has anyone noticed a few changes to the game with the new content?

It might just be a while since I played it, but the news reels on the citadel - did they always have emily wongs picture on them?

Scanning planets, I know Mirandas upgrade sped it up, but was it always that fast?

Any others?

Yes and yes. Miranda's upgrade upgrades your ability to locate elements of planets, therefore speeding it up.

I haven't noticed anything different. I completed the DLC on Paragon and I'm gonna have to go through it as a Renegade.

I'm wondering what else they're going to release before ME3. I know I heard rumblings of something with Liara and the Shadow Broker.

I am well aware that Mirandas upgrade speeds up the scanner.

That was not my question. I asked -

"Scanning planets, I know Mirandas upgrade sped it up, but was it always that fast?"

Even with the addition of the upgrade to the scanner, it seems faster still than on previous games.
 
I finished ME2 last night and I loved it. Now Im going to restart ME1 with a differnt job and do both games over again.

Dont forget to choose a different ending, i.e save the council or letting them die. It only makes a few minor changes, but it will be interesting to see how either of those decisions in ME 1 affect 3.

Biotic sentinel is the way to go! Perfect mix of firepower and biotic powers. Renegade options never sat well with me, so I ended up going through it is a paragon, with exception of the council, I let them die. (The first couple of times at least)

I like the sound of that. I like paragon Shepard better anyway.
