Played the demo last night.

What a mistake, now I'm dying to have this game.

My ONLY complaint is that the A button does too much crap. It runs, it rolls, it takes cover, it activates things.

Well, in gears of war it runs and takes cover, and activates things. (doesn't roll). Also, you so very rarely ever need to activate things that that function doesn't count as much.

In ME have to interact with stuff constantly, which results into a lot of random rolling and taking cover, especially because the game will highlight something you can interact with when you look at it, but you have to look at it the "right" way in order for the option to activate to come up.

"A" button is for roll in Gears too. Its the "X" button that is used for activating things though, so almost the same.

That's why I don't like computer games, too much left-mouse-button clicking.

I want a mouse that has 14 buttons, each with an individual contextual purpose that hardly arises so I have to fumble from time to time to remember "What the hell was roll/cover/use/interact/buy/sell/swap/reload/shoot" because it's on a button that never gets used.

If only they can transfer the 40+ individual keys onto a controller so that one button is only reserved for one action! Maybe some type of...keyboard controller.

Anyways, srsly, I gather this game has blown everyone away so far?
I should really speed up and finish ME2.

I am really digging everything so far. I was trying not to amp myself up for the game so I wouldn't have to endure the wait, but now I am really excited.
