Mass Effect (XBOX 360)

I berate her every chance I get and am assuming she'll eventually come around.

Once she learns her place that is

Man after today I'm bound to get the rings of death..

For one thing when you're the women, a love triangle forms. I guess the overall story doesn't change, just the way characters interact with you. The mission on the citadel when you go to Chora's Den for example, the drunk and disgruntled officer tells you to "sit your sweet ass down" or something to that effect. I just like the different reactions.

The Love Triangle happens too if you’re a male. Liara will sleep with you no matter what sex you are.

You make her sound like the Milky Way whore

Yeah, I didn't get to Liara in time during my first playthrough, her mission was the last mission I did before the last two missions. Damn Asaris and their promiscuity.

I'm stuck on a planet that looks like Mars where the Geth are. I forget the name, but it's red, and instead of lakes or rivers there lava.

When I push "X", it does nothing. So, I can't go back to the Normandy. I have to fucking complete this shit on this planet that's hard as fuck to complete because my squad sucks, and I hate that damn vehicle.

Hopefully after you beat the mission you can get back to the Normandy, if not that's horrible.

[abundant]

Exactly. Of the six story planets, only two of them (IIRC) allow you to change you squad mid mission.

Agreed. The only planets that should be a problem for people are the last one and the one that has you fighting Benezia. And picking the wrong squad set up should never be a problem, because the story planets are clearly labeled.

The only squad member who I hate to use is Kaiden. Whenever I get into a big fight, he dies quickly and because I’m a soldier and I’m teamed with Ash, I can’t use throw or lift, which comes in handy when fighting krogan warriors.

The Thorian thing isn't fun at all. I've died about 100,000 thousand times, and it't not even that interesting. Its the only part I've had much trouble with so far. That aside, this has been a very fun game so far.

As for party, I always take Ashley, and eith Wex (or whatever his name is), or the Garrak (again, is that even is name?). I got bored of Kaiden early.

The characters are generally really good. Ashley and Captain Anderson have been great, Joker is quite good, and I like Navigation Officer Pressly, but I don't know why.

Fair warning, don't download the "hilarious Seth Green outtakes" off Live. They aren't the least bit funny.

Just beat the game, 24 hours exact, with almost all the sidequests done. Probably would have hit Lvl 50 if I had, heh.

Anyway, the whole ending sequence was awesome. Personally, I feel that allowing the player to make several critical decisions during the final sequence was a great move. It's a small thing design wise, but

Watching the Alliance fleet come in to save the council was amazingly awesome, because it really felt like it was *my* decision, hence one of the best (not to mention one of the rare few) feel good moments I've had in a video game.

Much thanks to Bioware for this excellent game, now bring on the sequels already.

The sense of Deja Vu has never been greater.
