    Re: Mass Effect Discussion

    Can someone direct me to a Link that my show the different weapons/strategy that one may use for this game. Don't want to buy the strategy guide if I don't have to. Thanks

      Re: Mass Effect Discussion

      I finished the book - great read. I advise anyone that likes this game to go pick it up.

      I bought the game but just opened it and haven't played it yet. Been really busy with life and I won't be able to get my hands on a controller to play Mass Effect until the first week of December. I want to make sure I can play without the interruptions and responsibilities I have right now.

      So a question about the book, for those that read it, and it's relation to the game.

And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

          There's one other person mentioned, and it's been mentioned in this thread all ready. Not really a spoiler (you see this character from the beginning), but I won't mention it until you play.

          The book is a true prequel...there's not a lot of characters intertwined and it's referred to a little but not in any big way (the plot doesn't hinge on the book, for instance). The book is more just a good way to get into the Mass Effect world IMO.

              Speaking of... that assignment is still showing up for my female character even though I already met him and signed the autograph (and have left the Citadel a while ago). Is there something else I need to do with him to complete that? It doesn't have any discernible goals or a location that I'm supposed to visit showing, so it's just.. there.. glitch? Where would I meet him? He did ask me to meet him again, but I can't remember where he was or where he wanted me to meet him.

              EDIT: And being an evil bastard is FUN on this game. The dialogue had me and my friend laughing our asses off yesterday. "Shooting people isn't always the answer" made me lose it. I love being a douche to the council and my superiors.

                  No spoilers, but my 2nd time through I love being evil...basically replying "That's Awesome" when people expect you to go "OMG That's so bad" gets such a cool response.

                  I enjoyed being good though too, and I'm naturally not that evil so I prefer to play a more real game first, and become evil later (did the same thing in KOTOR).

                    Where is he though? I forgot where he was when I first saw him and I didn't run into him as my male character (probably because I'm an evil, vengeful man with no eyebrows and he's not interested in sexing me up).

                      The upper market against the wall in front of the stairs. You don't have to be a female character to have him talk to you.

                        Thanks. And yeah, I figured that I didn't have to be female, but I hadn't run into him with my male, so I couldn't remember where he was. My guy is pretty creepy-looking though... he's all gaunt, unshaven, has a scar over his eye, and no eyebrows... And he likes shooting things.

                          So, where do you guys think your party members fall along the Paragon/Renegade axis? I think Garus is the most outright Renegade.

                            Garrus sounds like Dick Cheney lol. He wants to do anything he can to make an arrest.

                              I think Ashly is kinda Renegade. She HATES the aliens and thinks they shouldn't be trusted, etc.

                              The other two chicks are Paragon, Wrexx is a Paragon too I think.

                                Yeah, Wrex seems like he might be. I'm hoping for a good side quest from him like the twisted one from Garus.
