Mass Effect

[GameMaster]

So wait, we're all supposed to just blindly forget Halo 3 and BioShock the minute the next good 360 game comes out?

When did loyalty get tossed out the window? When did this new trend of treating video games like 12 cent hookers take place? Should I just kick Mario Galaxy to the curb as soon as Smash comes out?

I pray to Allah you don't treat relationships the way you treat video games.

I really don't know, but it seems to be a new 360 thing. It has been dubbed the Game of the Month club.

So far off the top of my hand is Forza 2, The Darkness, Bioshock, Halo 3, GRAW 2, Vegas, Gears of War, perfect Dark, CoD 4 and Crackdown.

Seems like mass effect will join the club soon enough.

The best way to judge is just watch your buddy list. Generally, you will see everyone playing one game.. and then they go back to normal game until the next one hits.

Since when does anybody quote and respond to a GameMaster post with serious thought and tentative agreement?

It seems like it would make sense that games which receive almost unanimous praise in reviews would turn some heads... Particularly if they're made by say, Bioware... Or contain the word "Halo" followed, perhaps, by a number or subtitle...

[Fox 6]

so who has this? Ive heard mixed reviews. Anyone care to give their two cents?

[Bond]

Well, I was going to buy it, but then my parents informed me they bought it for me for Christmas. So now it's the waiting game.

I'm sure you won't regret buying it if you do.

Well, lets put it this way:

If you were a regular joe schmo, and in September a gorgeous, large breasted and plump assed woman came up to you and said "I want to suck your %$&@", you'd be ecstatic.

Now its October, and while you have enjoyed your hot chick all month, a Playboy playmate comes up to you and says "I want you to pound my Vag". While you've spent a wonderful month with the hot chick, its pretty hard to pass up the playmate, especially when its only been a month with the hot chick.

Now its November, and a young, pre-Brad Pitt Angelina Jolie walks up to you and says she wants to "fulfill every fantasy you've ever had with a woman". Score. Goodbye playmate, at least for now.

This is the plight of the 360 owner. There are so many options with a new great game seemingly coming out every month. Its not a bad thing. Its a goooooood thing. In the end, its what convinced me to pick up a 360 before a Wii.

Meanwhile the Wii owner is satisfied with one very hot chick, who he has a on and off relationship with over 20 years and he won't see for a few more weeks. In the mean time he spends all his time talking and thinking about her until she gets here again. In common terms, thats referred to as "pussy whipped".

But leave it to Nintendoids to try and spin the fact that 360 has such a great library into a BAD thing. Kind of funny.

That basically sums it up pretty good. Theres been so many great titles coming out, it boggles the mind. All I have to say is that thank god its the holiday season, or else i would have to pay for all of the games i wanted.

Think it is more along the lines of
August.. she said she had some interesting tricks and you really enjoyed them until you realized lasted like 5 mins and was pretty simple.
Sept... she had this trap vag in which the condom always broke. So it was fun but you just couldn't risk it all the time cuz some of the magic was gone.
Oct... You get the chick who does it all. Better than most. But no one pays attention to her because of her twin sister who just developed more.
Nov... you got choices and they are all good but then the love of your life re-enters and you have to pick.
a) The chick from HS who was always good but really grew up recently.
b) The chick who was always pretty but just doesn't have much upstairs.
c) The chick who is smart but sometimes too smart for her own good.
d) The love of your life, who granted comes around once in a blue moon but when she does it is magical.

Granted, I love the love of my life and the chick who does it all, but no one gives her the attention. (Orange Box for no one who got that)

As an aside as well, the Wii also lets you rrelive some of your greatest consquences.
The first time
Your prom date.
The hot chick you dated in HS who just isn't pretty anymore.
That one time you were drunk and don't really care to remember.
The time you stayed up all night.

Wow this.. I blame Strangler....

Exactly. Pussy whipped.

So im about 14 hours into the game and well I love it to death. Im only on the 2nd story world, and the stroy is already grabbed me. It takes about 8- 10 hours to get used to the hybrid shooter/rpg style of the game, and the interface with team mates, euqipment, weapons and upgrades. This is one of the best games ive ever played. The dialouge is so brillantly done. Bravo bioware, bravo.

[Bond]

Long live Mass Effect!

[Fox 6]

Just to clear things up, most of the time ive spent was going around uncharted planets and doing side quests. So much to do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So how's the marriage going Professor S?

[Fox 6]

So I picked it up. Only an hour and 18 min in. So far its pretty fun. The dialouge is very well done, easily one of the best parts of the game ( and it should be if its a rpg.) The whole character customizing is very vast compared to most rpgs. It ensures that you're sheppard wont look the same when you play through it again. If you guys have any questions ask them and ill try to do my best to answer them without giving away the story.
