so i can only assume that everyone was just appalled at your complete misunderstanding of what being a "nigger of a person" means. it's like totally opposite of what you implied. like, gosh man! you really need to get with it!

But you wouldn't buy a 360 for yourself to play it on? :P

that was my evil plan, i was going to buy a xbox 360 halo edition for 340(60 dollar gift-card) and sell it a week later and whatever i bought for the 60. Thereby making a 100 at least and getting to play mass effect!!!

Well technically it could fit... maybe he meant he was a rich guy who would never give any of his money to others.

Mass Effect was THE reason I got a 360. Can't wait to play it. I'm asking for it for Xmas. Hopefully it will be thekind of game my wife really enjoys watching me play. *fingers crossed*


And don't try to say nigger is just another word. If you use it in that context it's a little jarring.

Wow. There seems to be quite a lot of love for Mass Effect.

Just curious but is everyone wanting it due to reviews? Or because you loved KOTOR? Or maybe both?

Im looking forward to getting it soon but I chose to get Assassins Creed first.

because of kotr, but ill tell you its a disappointment. I've played the first world, and you can't be evil. That's whats so great about kotr, is you could do a side-quest and you could do the right thing or the evil thing. Like for example I killed some gun dealers for their shipment for the police right, i didnt have to kill them and I thought why not just keep the higly modified illegal weapons for myself? Nope can't do it, why not sell them to a criminal? Nope can't do it.
The game so far is linear, its nothing like kotr. And nobody talks in the game, in kotr 1 and kotr, you would be strolling down a nice road and you could turn around and be like whats up, whats your history like or balh blha, your hot. Nope. Or when in the rare chance you can do something evil or whenver your talking to someone else, nobody in your team makes wise-cracks or says anything. It's boring and theres to many friggin planets. In one solar system there must be 20 planets. What fun is that to go to every single planet and finding out whats there. ANd your AI sucks, they are terrible, they are useless, i let them die and kill the bad guys myself.
And so far the story is nothing special, it's just like a typical sc-fi story with different names. But hopefully it will get better.

I haven't really played KOTOR and I haven't read the reviews. It just looks like my kind of game. Most of the early buzz is at least positive, if not always glowing. Also, the guys in 1UP Yours who have played it say it's great. I generally trust their tastes.
