mass efect 1 is sh*ty rpg with no soul. Everything is good but not the story and RPG elements. And it's booring to play as you hear another "tell me your story" dialog. Where is realism in dialogs ?. Maybe ME2 will improve dialogs. Absoluly hate to choose OBVIOUSLY dialogs. Good dialog vs neutral dialog vs evil dialog vs tell me your story. That's not even RPG element ! you say the same thing but in evil or good way where are diffrent dialogs?. It's only good to watch not to play as he speak..

Hope ME2 will be better than ME1

edit:

ME was good action game but horrible RPG

This place should change it's name from N4G to HOB.

HOB = House of Blogs

And you seriously need to go the heck outside...

Almost every form of story-telling has holes somewhere, to take one story hole and to use that as a basis that Bioware "blew it" is truly ridiculous and petty.

Whoever wrote this blog article = FAIL

Reported the article as LAME, hopefully they take it off.

Actually, that's false. It only implies that sometime between when Shephard interacted with the beacon and four days later when he awoke that Benezia and Saren met up on Sovereign. It does not imply that she was on Sovereign during the attack at all, especially considering they were both splitting up to accomplish various tasks throughout the rest of the story, which would seem appropriate to have done prior to the introduction of Shephard into the story as well.

"He’s a Spectre, he could have just gone to the tower after hours on “Spectre business” and activated it while Sovereign and the Geth came into Citadel space."

He needed the beacon's to tell him what to do and how to get the Reapers. By the time he had this info, he was being hunted down for trial by Shephard. Appearing at the Citadel in this manner would have resulted in his being held for trial.

This fails to prove anything and really is only an attempt to belittle a good storyline by trying to find fault in anything possible.

This is weak and I'm not even sure why this is newsworthy.

why would saren say something which benezia already knew?

Maybe to confirm this to benezia considering shepherd took out most, of the geth, and ruined the conduit?

The blogger, AND the article. :o

why should we care if this blogger has a problem with a game that's been out for how long now? I think this guy just wants to get some attention

*cue in captain obvious*

I can't even read this because it's stupid. lol

Yeah, this guy is retarded.

And the Whole "Plot Hole" conversation. It can be easily explained like this. Out at the bar, order some chili Cheese fries with my Friend we eat them and I look at him and go "Damn those were some good Fries" Of course he knows they were good. He was there and even ate some. Its just them talking about it. He doesn't tell her it happened. He says it like she already knew it happened.

I know James Bond isn't American.

But basically hes saying that James Bond (Saren) can break into the White House(Council Chambers/Citadel Tower) at night and start dikkin around. Yeah, no.

I just assumed that the Reapers couldn't effectively communicate with organics, and that Saren's instructions were very basic, also that security was far too tight in the council room and they wouldn't even trust spectres enough to waltz in and activate a random terminal no one knows about.
It's possible that this really is a plot hole, but I think in regards to the overall trilogy, it won't matter too much. This hole would only pertain to the mini-arc of the first game, anyway.

The one theing that always disappointed me about Mass Effect was the Ship Battle scene.

In the cut scene were first show up at the Citadel after Eden Prime one of the offices makes a comment how the main Asari battelship(Destiny Ascension I think it was called, don't really remember) was the the biggest and baddest warship in Citadel Space. That its main cannon was massive.

But in the final cut scenes with fleet actions going on it didn't do anything but sit there like a lump on a log and took a pounding. It should have bean taking the lead in the battle, all guns ablazing, it should have bean the one heading strait for and taking on the Sovereign with the Turians ships as escort. You don't send those ships alone. And you never never never take your main battle asset out of a battle to pick up dignitarys its stupid. You want that asset in between the dignitarys and the hostels holding them at bay. You would then have smaller and a lot faster ships get those dignitarys out of the battle zone ASP! The final cut scenes never made any sense to me.

Are they selling a Limted Edition copy of this.?
I need to purchase it now !!

The birth of the blog was the death of the internet. It gave a voice to the stupid. And some even went further and created amateur sites like gamesonsmash or playstation lifestyle or xbox360 dreamz. The internet has died.

if u read the comments under the actual article, the 'plot holes' are satisfactorily explained away by the end.

**BIOSHOCK SPOILER**

I would nominate Bioshock for biggest plot hole in an otherwise kick@ss story: why the charade with a plane crash, and then the death of Atlas's family in the bathysphere? doesn't Would You Kindly remove the need for creating an elaborate fake back story?

There is a massive plot hole because the third guy on the right moved his left pinkie when in fact the time-space continuum does not allow spatial relationships to be disproportionate to the blah blah blah...I don't think plot holes in video games is going to keep me up at night, besides, I just played the game to get to the sex scene with the blue chick.

This guy is a priceless. He keeps calling Bioware his stepdad, and he mentions he is still Bioware's b****. Then he goes into an incredibly convoluted plot analysis that I can't follow and I've solved the game.
And that bandaid that was crudely photoshopped onto Sheppard's head. Oh Dear !

Thinking back on when I first bought Mass Effect for the PC was nothing but pure joy. I even enjoyed getting my ass kicked by the last boss till I could beat him and yell boo-yah but it was still fun all the way through the entire game for me. I had too much fun to notice plot holes or even really care. The one thing I really cared about was how barren all the planets were. Most couldn't be landed on and the ones you could were so freaking naked with nothing but mountains and the typical fortress / building.

I would really love to see more detailed outdoor environments in ME2 if it's possible because ME didn't feel right at times; although I do hand it to them for indoor environments, most were for the most part very well done and I have to consider this game a must have for any RPG / Action game lover.

Oh and I just love how the journalist compares Bioware to that of a Father. LOL.

was there even the plot hole in the game?

two question for everyone who played it.

who did you have sex with and did you save the council?

Their highest rated, best remembered, socially loved franchise... and they have small team working on it for the past 2- 3 years?

Absolute garbage company along side all the heads that made Andromeda.

Maybe Saudi Arabia make something out of this.

overall if they could get CDPR and quadratic dream to help them make the game that would give me hope for the game

Still riding off the coat tails of the original staff from Bioware that have long since moved on.
