The commercial makes the game seem like a Michael Bay production. So I can see why some wouldn't like the commercial. Personally, I thought it is one of the better commercials for a game.

@1.3
aye, its too late 4 me.. save yourselves.
I was like.. wtf? no.. wtf? it can't be >.>

so im lying about not liking he commercial???
ehm ok?

The thing I hate most about ME2 is the voice channels can be a little messed up. For example, you are walking around after a mission and the Ships AI is talking to you. Then as you walk by two Krogans discussing their latest bloodbath their discussion actually cuts what the AI was saying, mid sentence.

besides that, the game is amazing.

edit: lol, to funny, they updated it as a sixth thing that sucks about ME2.

I saw the long commercial during the game as well and one thing I noticed was that some of the facial movements on the humanoid characters (in particular the black guy in black battle regalia and the white chick in spandex) didn't match up to what was being voiced. Minor gripes but I saw them indeed & this was an advertisement. Again given what MW2 has managed to muster from the "reviewers" I believe ME2 should rec'v no less than 11/11.

PLEASE PUT A SPOILER TAG SOMEWHERE IN THERE.

I hate how people are so shameless with spoilers when the thing ISN'T OFFICIALLY OUT YET. That's like a critic saying "Yeah I like the part where the guy dies at the end of the movie."

It's goddamn shameless, man. Kinda sick of having to close off my entire world just to avoid some d*ck spoiling a story I care about.

Considering you can't visit the citadel of Mass Effect 1 and that you won't be seeing civilians on any of the important save the colony side quests.. it makes the game feel less... life like compared to the first, and wow.. a geth squad mate.. how lame lol

People think, a game will never be perfect, it can only make up on the flaws it had last go round.

People can hate all they want, this article is stupid & I cant wait for 12am January 26.

WOW someone is trying to gain hits; what a dumb site....please ignore.....

I wish I could use stronger language on N4G to express how I feel about this fool posting this Sh!t just to prove he played it before the rest of us. The things he are using as complains come across as searching for something to fill the blanks.

It sucks that I dont have a 360 to play it
It sucks that I dont have a decent PC to play it
It sucks to be me

lol

I wonder why they didn't keep the original characters. The new ones just don't seem as good.

Vagrant Story came pretty close to being a perfect game.
But I do agree with you.

Being more than half way through the game, I've got to say that these complaints aren't even close to a game breaker.

1. Ammo? Yeah, so? What really good RPG/FPS doesn't make you look for more ammo? And it adds to the difficulty. You have to be more conservative.

2.The secretary? Aside form telling me to talk to the Illusive Man AFTER I've already left the conference room being annoying, I've got no problem with her. And I'm thinking that there's a way to be romantic with her (BTW, I'm playing as female Shepard).

3. Normal is... somewhat easy. So, Veteran is at about my level. But how is that a complaint anyway? Heck, you can even change the difficulty while playing a level!!! You can change it anytime you want!!!

4. No characters that stand out? They all have interesting stories... Some better than others, but what I care more about is how well they work and kill in the battlefield. And I didn't really find Wrex all that engaging in ME1, he was just good to have on the battlefield when you need brute strength.

5. Eh... sure. I liked how ME1 just gave you the characters. But in truth, you don't need all of them (I think). I need 3 more, but I've already been given the location of the derelict so I can safely navigate the Omega 4 relay. Regardless, I'm a completionist, so I will find them all and do all of the side missions.

6. Other conversations stopping your conversation? Yeah, this one sucks! Not a game breaker though. Just stand still until EDI or your teammates are done talking. It's not that difficult!

is it bad that the reason i don't play the game is because of that fat head lizard man lookin like a total goober?

You are missing a character and he certainly does "stand out"

I'm surprised you didn't talk about the mindless boring mining of planets. That was one of the only problems I had with the game lol

If I put that last character in, there would be huge spoilers. In this, nothing is really spoiled that hasn't been put all over the internet already.

And yes, I think Mass Effect 2 is awesome. I just want to make sure game developers keep a high standard, and these crappy parts need to go. Or at least be discussed. I don't know if I'm happy with ammo or not, for instance. But why the hell can't I get my messages instantly?

True

I'd say all the minuscule "problems" in the game are nothing compared to the overall experience it presents

That's not Urdnot Wrex in the line-up... At least that's based on the tons of videos showing who it is.

Exactly. The experience is the most important part, and hell, I enjoyed Mass Effect 2 a ton. But like everyone else, I want to play the "perfect game". Someday it'll happen, and it's our job as consumers and critics to help fix the problems with today's games so that tomorrow's will be better.

And Wrex, himself, isn't in the game... SO FAR. Only references to him.
