@Fullmetal216: All valid points and in my opinion I think 3d gaming highlights all the problems/unattractiveness of pc gaming; the high prices, specific hardware requirements, and resource whoring isn't something that I would welcome anytime soon. Even if the tech drops in price and is made widely available, I still see no real appeal to 3d gaming that I couldn't get with a regular 2d experience.
" @sopranosfan: But to the hardcore, dosent it having the worse graphics seem like a Negative thing? A weakness? "
Dude, how old are you? Four? Jeez if the game was fun for you to play then that's all that really matters. The graphics seemed decent enough (although the face models looked out of place) and the gameplay was an okay experience. I partly blame myself for allowing myself to get super pumped/hyped for this game, but hopefully it won't disappoint at the end of the day.
" I couldn't play the first ME at all. I didn't enjoy it. But all I did was wiki the first game so I understood what was going on and played the second. Which I totally loved oddly, just to share. :P "
Believe me man, you're not alone! For some reason I couldn't/can't pull myself to complete Mass Effect 1 for some reason. What I think really killed it for me was the forced Mako driving and I guess the uninteresting worlds (oh and the fact that they have a billion planets, yet you can only go on maybe 4??? and the rest have no effect on you). I watched my older brother play (and beat) the first one and I actually enjoyed watching him play the game as I do playing Mass Effect 2.
" I will have to think about it for a bit longer, and if the price drops a bit more by Christmas time, I may go for it. Thanks for the feedback ;). "
Good thinking bro, but also make sure to keep tabs on good deals on the net for (new) PS3s. A good site like Cheapassgamer.com would be an ideal choise as it has a great community and frequent updates on a variety of deals posted by fellow gamers all over the world. Good luck and good hunting.
" There's no such thing as maxing it out. Tomorrow they will create a more efficient engine that can do Uncharted 2 easier, and will make Uncharted 3 look even better. They have maxed it out for now. "
Well you just saved me from writing a paper on how software actually works.
Well if you're an achievement whore then you'll have to cough up the green, but from actually watching someone play the 'extra' chapter, I just don't believe it's worth the cash. I on the other hand wanted to buy the GOTY, but I saw that Gamefly had a sale for GoW2 for 20 bucks (with flashback codes!) and jumped on the opportunity. I just beat the game and planned on playing online, but found out that most of the playlists require some (if not all) DLC and I'm not interested in buying over XBL.
