Re: Mass Effect 2

In terms of setting the stage for ME3, I'd like to know what the last decision you make in the game does for ME3. It's a big deal for me since everyone seems to think one option is a turrible idea.

Spoiler

When you clear out the Collector base, and you're given the choice to destroy the base or save it. Everyone in your squad thinks saving the base was dumb, I'd love to know what choice was the "best" choice... Most likely won't know until ME3 comes out.

On a side note, the Arrival DLC is hilarious if you do it before the Final Mission.

Spoiler

The Collector General is the individual who speaks to you instead of Harbinger, although it's just using the General as a tool anyway...

As for the last choice...

I've heard they explain it in the comic, but ever notice the Illusive Man's eyes?

I blew the base up.

Re: Mass Effect 2

I haven't had this much fun playing a game in a long time. For the longest, I've been stuck with playing nothing but sports games and the yearly shooters, but this game has opened me back up.

Glad they ported it for the PS3.

Yeah, I never trusted him.

Re: Mass Effect 2

I lost all my Mass Effect 2 saves (360). I'm pissed. And I feel like my 360 is gonna die anytime soon.

I just want to say.... FFFFFFUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!! I'm seriously considering getting both Mass Effects for my PC if not for the fact that owning a 360 would be pointless for me if I do so. Heck, if Gears of War and Halo were available on the PC, I'd ditch the 360 altogether.

Re: Mass Effect 2

Quick question as I just started playing this game. Sometimes while during a cutscene, I get an Icon pop up on with a LT or RT and a symbol with it. I believe it correlates to renegade and patron? Do you guys use this everytime it pops up or does it waste something that I shouldn't be and only pick my times to use it?

Use it only if it goes with the path you are taking. It simulates a quick decision you can make, good or evil.

Sometimes it's fun to be renegade even while playing a paragon character. Especially

pushing that random merc out of the window

Ha, I was tempted to renegade that scene, but opted to stick with paragon.

I play paragon, but I've used the renegade interrupt

Spoiler

To take out the Batarian mechanic on recruiting Garrus, and to headbutt the other Krogan while talking to the Shaman.

I wish it wasn't so cut and dry at times(no grey area). Sometimes you need to let a few punches fly to get information.

That first one you listed is my favorite.

Yep. I had to do both of those when I was using my paragon character. Just felt like something either side would do.

Re: Mass Effect 2

Is it even possible to NOT go Renegade during Mordin's loyalty mission? You know the one. I mean they leave up the cue for like 2 minutes. They practically BEG you to do it.
