I'm excited as hell for this sequel. The first game was an absolute blast to play. I loved everything about it. From the music to the voice acting to the graphics to the rpg elements to the shooting elements, to the exploration and the decision-making. Everything was top notch.

The second will and MUST follow that trend, but give us a few extras. :-)

Can't wait to play this on my LAUNCH 60gig (now 250gig) PS3 lol.

hands down, the game is sooo fun, even before the install there were only minor hiccups as most reviews noted, in the end its still one helluva game....if you haven't played ME yet then you really are missing something special.

JOY

Love Mass Effect.

Great game, beats every RPG on PS3 and is exclusive to Xbox360.

Mass Effect 2 will follow the same.

I don't know where I've been. I wish the map would keep track of what I've discovered on each planet so I don't have to land each time only to find out that I've already been there.

Also, I think it'd be nice to rebalance the characters. The soldier was just too powerful. Improved AI for your teammates would also be a must.

The other main thing is to get some different architecture for each map. All those mining facilities and ships all had the exact same layout. Just hated that repetitiveness.

I agree with the above poster about planets being populated. More of those would be good. I loved running around killing monkeys....

Finally, I think they should completely redo the Maako rover. It was pretty much an ALL TERRAIN vehicle and so the danger of flipping over or falling into a chasm or something was nonexistent. I think they could make areas on some planets inaccessible until you were able to upgrade the Maako to enable underwater exploration or a flight capability (not just a 2 second hover).

Mass Effect was such a great beginning to a franchise and with so much to fill in, I think they have a great opportunity to make these sequels incredible.

...for the fourth time. I played through on Insanity with a fully leveled up Soldier.

Mass Effect is just epic. Playing through Ilos and finding out about the Reapers and how they return, is just phenomenal. Once getting into the stretch run to fight Saren, the cutscenes are just epic. Despite playing through four times, it's amazing each and every time.

Before ME2 releases, I'm gonna play through a few more times as the different classes to just experience the other powers. Looking forward to 2010. ME2 is definitely my most anticipated game as this point.

Mass Effect is an amazing game and I can't wait for the sequel.

Interesting :o

Please Bioware, the item management system is terrible.

Also bring back individual team mate location commands for the console versions please.

Other than that I'm fine with how the game is. I think Bioware wanted to create the illusion of a vast and expansive universe with the barren planets. What you have to remember is that not all planets are inhabitable - I guess they didn't want to make a game world that felt too much like Star Trek.

First let me say that I love Mass Effect and it is in my top five games.

Somebody said they should have fewer planets in part two and less repetitive ones. I don't agree. They should have more planets and more to explore. If made right, it won't feel so repetitive. Another favorite of mine is Fallout 3 and it feels less repetitive and I have over 200 hours of play into that game. Yes, you can tell it is the same cave or house or barn or church in Fallout 3, but it flows. Mass Effect does tend to have a lot of nothingness, but keep in mind so does the real universe. I think it should be much much much larger. I think they need to focus on long term and more time between games 2 and 3. They shouldn't have come right out and said it is a trilogy. Now the pressure is on to get number two out. I would rather it take longer and be bigger. At the very least they should plan on staged DLC. The one DLC from the first game wasn't that great. They need to do them right and space them out between two and three. Just make it big and fill in the empty later. I also agree with the other poster that they should indicate areas you have traveled to. I shouldn't have to map it out on paper to prevent revisits. That was one of the shortcomings of the game.

What is this about an elevator bug? I have the 360 version and am not sure what problem you are talking about. Does it only apply to the PC version?

NOT MUCH GOING ON OVER IN THE 360 DEPARTMENT OF THIS SITE IS THERE.

Its all going on over on the PS3 section. New games, updates and future releases are being thrown out every day from Sony and this is the best Microsoft can do?

Fu*king Mass Effect!? No one gave a toss about it when it first released, so why would we now.

Microsoft is fighting a loosing battle.[Though they like to make out they are on top]

dam i finally reach level 60 with the all colossus armors and the predator MX heavy armors, i just hope i can use all those babes in the second game cuz i ll be a waste of time and effort trying to get them and not be able to use them
