Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
But then [Mass Effect] began to smell my greatness!

Finnith, Pabst AKA Pabst Blue Ribbon is a blue collar cheap beer like Milwaukee's Best that hipsters ironically drink. They've ironically drunk so much of it Pabst was able to raise its price. Hipsters ruin everything.

For the sake of accuracy, I mean.
Also, blargh to that "canon romance" video.
PSN: Genesius_Prime / 3DS: 4871-3718-5715 / Diablo III: Genesius#1379
Therefore, I will take credit for it even though I think I do know who did it.
Something about this video seems a little off to me.
Did you somehow change Miranda's hair? I didn't know that was possible.
I know who.
Same fucking cycle over and over and over again.
Imitation is the sincerest form of copying.

yeah, that's my favorite too. got a kind of Tsutomu Nihei vibe to it :^:
i have this one

although i bought mine a few months ago and it was only around 24 bucks
holy appreciation, batman
it's damn nice. i can't wait for a similar one for ME2 to come out.

If one does. That art book came out at the same time as the strategy guide.
one can hope.

The only artbook I was ever interested enough to buy was this one, which was fairly ludicrous for $25, since it's like the size of two Calvin & Hobbes anthologies put together.
But I also really like Mass Effect, so if they ever put out another artbook that's interesting, I might have to get in on it.
OHhhhhh yeahh I just remembered that I wanted to explain that picture.
There's a bug on the PC version where you can see the giant heads of folks who are being rendered into holograms, like for ads or little messages you get to see a dude's head in or whatever.
Anywho, if there's a hole in the skybox on the PC, you can see a bad hall of mirrors effect or giant floating heads, some times both.
On the xbox 9 times out of 10 if there's a hole in the skybox you just don't see anything.
The illusive man isn't 90 stories tall and watching you completing the game, it's just a bug.
I has a shop
are there stories behind the garrus loyalty ghosting effect and the jacob loyalty invisibility? :winky:

This sounds like a dark project
Heh. Their own attempt to be ironic resulted in more irony that they did not intend.
I am still trying to convince people on the official forums. One claims that ME1's combat furthered the game's artistic value. The other claims to have finished ME2 with only Incinerate.
What class should I be? I've already done soldier, adept, and the biotic/soldier comob that I can't remember the name of.
Infiltrator
Seriously, it's fucking hilarious to skeet deadly headshots and take out bosses in 1-2 hits that you struggled with previously.
Infiltrator
Do it
That's another option... maybe I should be one of those charge-y people
Charge is super fun. You just have to have room in front of the target to reach them. And don't charge into crowds or without cover to fall back to.
EDIT: Third vote for infiltrator. Basically a lighter, stealthier, boom-headshot soldier. Sentinel was satisfying for me but there's nothing flashy about having tech armor and whittling away defenses.
You've never properly played Vanguard? You haven't lived sir!

Yeah, while cloak is a lot of fun and incinerate is handy, you've already seen the ammo types with soldier and have probably seen plenty of sniping and SMGs from the other classes.
The important thing to remember about your vanguard is that holy shit I'm dying it's time to charge.
Goggles.
"Seriously, Miranda, goggles has had enough of this. Please."
I chuckled.
Anyway, now that I finally got my copy of ME2 back from the two friends that wanted to borrow it, I'm doing my fourth game as a Sentinel. I think I prefer Infiltrator and Soldier, but I'm still having a lot of fun with it. Also, I recently found out how amazing Reave is. I can't believe I waited this long to choose it as a bonus skill. My Vanguard really could have used it for a long-range attack option.
Unfortunately, I seem to have failed to pick up the SMG.

Vanguard, however, is all about charge. You probably owe yourself a proper playthru of both
