Not that I'd read or heard specifically. Might have glossed over that detail a little bit, but I hadn't heard/read this until at least a week or two ago.
It's something I just don't understand. Bioshock 2 is a big release and that's going to be released simultaneously in the different regions. Mass Effect 2 is just as big, probably bigger, and they're staggering the release dates.
It is bad that in my exam diary I've devoted more space to "MASS EFFECT 2 OUT TODAY " than my very very important exams on the 29th? And sod UK release dates.
And I hope they do a fleshed out scenario for having no love interest, or having that love interest die on Virmire. I doubt many people didn't choose one though.

Games always come out on Fridays here, always you'll get it thursday if you preordered online retailer, it's the same thing with music, they always come out on a Monday like today with the me2 ost and it's tomorrow for the USA.
I hope they have more music akin to the credits track in ME as that was the ultimate shit.
In other news, who will be cheating on their previous? I don't want to cheat on Ash but Miranda is hotter by far, which shouldn't tempt me but really does.

See, at this rate my Shepard is going to have a fetish for xenophobic women by bed-hopping from Ash to Miranda to... Whoever we get in ME3.
If they play the whole:
Shepard died
thing well enough then it might end up being just like Castaway, which I felt was a really, really hard scene to watch.

You're not actually supposed to say this out loud as a lead game developer for both platforms.
TC: In Dragon Age, there were some marked differences in the challenge level and how some of the battles played out on different platforms. Are there also differences like that in Mass Effect 2? Did you guys have to change the design or the combat system for any of the platforms?
CH: I don't think there's a difference between the two platforms. One of the differences between a PC and a console for a shooter is that the mouse ends up being a more immediate and a more precise device.

Everyone knows that the mouse makes playing a shooter easier. If you say it doesn't then you're lying or wierd. On the other hand, a console is cheaper, less likely to fuck up and you don't have to upgrade all the time.

End of debate.
Less likely to fuck up? You've obviously never owned a xbox 360! Every day requires a sacrifice to the gods of luck that a RROD won't occur.
Not every xbox violently explodes every ten minutes. i've had mine three years with no problems, and i am sure there is many other who are exactly the same as me.....
You know, speaking of the music in Mass Effect 1, it's well worth comparing it to the soundtrack to the first couple of seasons of Babylon 5. The resemblance is uncanny.

Every PC I have owned has died a horrible death. I've tried to keep them alive but no, constant fuckery. Whereas my trusty Xbox 360 has never broke. I got one pretty much as soon as it came out. Not broken.

You're doing something incredibly wrong with your PC(s).

um they did? They are using the same 80's sci-fi style they used in he first game, just better.
There's a lot more badly sampled strings than I remember.
Oh, thanks for that. I found the wiki before but I didn't realize there were that detailed articles on, well...most things.
Cheers

And listening to the OST some more, it's not that bad - just the normandy reborn theme that irritates me
Thane's theme kicks ass.

Yeah, M4 pt.II was awesome.
I wonder what the end credits for this game will be.

And holy fuck, someone get this shit orchestrated. This is one of the best OST's of all time.
decided to start a new ME run
That music
So good.
I like both really.
But, imo, the ending to part I(where everything is just ramped up) should have lasted a bit longer.
The collector's edition box doesnt' come with the soundtrack right? Seems like I'll just hit up iTunes for it.
The soundtrack on amazon has 27 tracks, the one that comes with the digital download version of the game has only 12.
Might pick them up for my Canon run.

It sounds great
End of debate.
I'm sorry, what?

Either way, no need to debate it.
*shakes fist* No need to debate it!
