Hmmm, downside "Very familiar"
Think il pass on this one, it just looks like Bioshock 1 which I wasnt a fan of.
Miller is so lame.. Such a wannabe Mass Effect fan now after he ragged on so much about how he hated the first game. He never even played it for more than an hour! Dont know how he can call himself a Mass Effect fan.
I agree with the comments re the cover mechanics, the do get a little annoying when you jump of a barrier you wanted to hide behind and then get shot to pieces. And YES give us blind fire in ME3
I cant say which is better as they are both very different game types. Its not like comparing it to Dragon Age or Fallout, its a totally different genre.
ME2 and U2 are both outstanding games in there own fields. If I had to decide which gave me the most enjoyment then thats a difficult question mainly because I havent finished ME2 yet but played the hell out of U2 and even platinumed it.
I think IGN just jump on the hype train way too much as soon as a game come...
Oh Mr Miller, you really are trying to fan the flames of the bitter fanboys.
Dont worry, It will come to the PS3 one day then all will be able to enjoy this awesome game.
Any recent Mass Effect 2 interview they are always asked about the PS3 version and every time they go quiet and say the cant discuss it.
If it wasnt in the pipeline or even had no intention they would just flat out deny.
Theres no reason not to own both consoles this gen. Both have very strong games, are cheap enough... and will co exist for a long while yet!
6/10 Ouch
They confirmed about a month ago that they removed a hell of alot of content from FFXIII on both versions. Enough for another game infact.
Its a shame really.
The only thing I dont like about Mass Effect 2 so far is the piloting of your ship around the system and then the refuling and travelling to the next system routine of exploration.
It looks so cheap and tacky piloting your ship around like this, I much prefered it in ME1.
Patience, it will come to the PS3 eventually. Just no time soon.
People really need to get over this linearity.
This is exactly the same as FFX where you had no choice but to follow the story right up until you reached the top of Mt Gagazet then all of a sudden near the end of the game it opened up and you could revisit all the places you had been before. There were no extra towns.
Iv read reports that FFXIII doesnt open up until Chapter 11 which is supposed to be the half way point (not in chapter numbers mind you).
Its always the case where one console has the lead platform and the other is a port.
360 fans are just going to have to suck it up just as PS3 fans have on many occassions.
Why did we need an english translation. I would have been happy with the Japanese version of the song just like the did in FFX.
I think SE need to think a little more carefully about these decisions. If they really felt the need to have an english song they should have done more than approached Simon Cowel and asked him for any song from the album of his latest pop puppet.
Well deserved. Bioware has done a fantastic job on this game, its like the leap from Assassins creed 1 to AC2.
Im loving every second to it and im also happy to dust the cobwebs off my 360 and get some use out of it.
I was also pleasently suprised that it managed to import my old Mass Effect 1 endgame even though i accidently deleted all Mass Effect 1 game data and saves off my HDD. The save game must be secretly attached to your XBL account some how.

You do know you dont need the original version of the game to play Episodes boxed copy right?
The $50m was never confirmed to be true. Was just a rumour that spiralled out of control.
MS would have paid for the timed exclusivity rights but I dont think they would have paid that much
Knew this day would come!!! Awesome news!!! so glad I held back on my 360 version purchase. Will look forward to revisiting Liberty City soon.
Excellent, glad I held back and didnt buy this for the 360
Sega are so dumb
See this is why people get so frustrated at developers and Sony.
Have to register and log in, complete a mini game to get a code for a 2gig download!! Good luck, the servers down as they are now getting slammed with people trying to sign up.
Why do I, the customer, a potential purchaser of the game, have to jump through all these stupid hoops just to try it out. Im not sold on the game yet and the demo will be the decider as to whether or not I part with my cash....
