Jack looks like she's missing a couple thousand polygons, Miranda's face's all swollen up and Shepard looks like a dwarf. Nevermind the stature issue that the giant Krogan's about as tall as the bald chick. Oh and by the way, wtf’s wrong with that first image?!?

I thought that the graphics were U3 ugh, the cast was a lot better but most characters fell to the background as soon as you completed their quests (at least in Dragon Age they argued with you and Morrigan bitched all the time), the imported saves meant absolutely nothing, the side quests were generic (if a little less than ME1's), the shooting's boring and repetitive, no inventory just makes exploring the galaxy a lot more pointless, etc. I think ME2's completely worth buying and playing, but it's just so because the conversation system ME1 invented is amazing. It's really cool to create a character and actually see her do all the cool things ten years ago were represented by text. But i don't see any other reason to play it besides Mordin's awesomness.

I'm not a huge fan of sci-fi rpgs generally... and all the over-perfect reviews of it are really turning me off. I generally don't trust anyone who says something is perfect... lol But if game releases slow down after March(Bayo/Darksider's for Jan, Dante's/WKC for Feb, FF13 and GoW3 for Marche leave me busy) as they appear to be doing so... I may give this a try come April. I’m glad to read an unbiased sounding review of this game.

Lost nearly three full days to this baby. Freakin’ sweet game, immensely in-depth characters and level design, just a wonderful experience overall. Lost nearly three full days to this baby.
