    How much paragon do you have to have to tell her to "Be the better woman," anyway? Because I am halfway through the fifth segment and it's still greyed out. Guess it's time for newgame+ on insanity.

    A few things.

    One, import if possible.

    Two, pick female Shepard.

    Three, when a mission to pick up an "IFF" comes up?

    Delay it as long as possible.

    Ignore the part in bold. Pay heed to the part about the IFF. The IFF can be problematic.

    It seems my ability to detect sarcasm is off today, because I genuinely can't tell if you're serious or not. Because of that, I will say that the reason I told iamthepieman to ignore the part in bold, is because I think Hale's VA is terrible.

    You are a silly goose.

    Majority of those who've bothered to do head to head comparisons (and I agree with them) place Hale miles ahead. Like, all time great vs. below average.

    My xbox HD died, taking my ME 2 save with it. Should I get the PC version when it comes out, and hope that people upload save files like they did with ME1?

    I started playing as a female character because I wanted to play evil (I always do my evil playthroughs as female and my good playthroughs as male.) But the renegade options were always so tactically poor that I couldn't bear to keep playing that way and re-rolled a make character.

    So I picked the most ugly, pale character i could during creation (my good characters get by on good morals and not good looks). Like big round bald head, thick ugly lips and, well, you get the idea. And the voice just matched so well to this pale ugly horrid character i created that I thought they had done some sorcery to detect the "type" of character and match one of several voices to it.

    I created a new character and nope. Voice was still horrible.

    Anyways. I never played ME1, have no character save and don't really care about importing.

    Tell me, if a majority agrees on something, does that make it fact?

    Everyone has opinions, my opinion is that when Hale is not boring, she is trying to sound like some sort of Michelle Rodriguez, action movie bitch.

    I have no problem with people who enjoy Hale's performance over Meer's, what I do have a problem with, are people who claim that she is indisputably superior, and if you don't pick her, then you are playing the game incorrectly, and every Hale fan seems to behave in that manner.

    It doesn't matter if the Renegade options are tactically poor, they make you a bad-ass. And where did you get the idea that there were several voices from? There is one for Male-shep and one for Fem-shep.
    I'd highly recommended playing through ME1 before you start 2, otherwise you really aren't going to enjoy it as much.

    My group of advice would be:

    Make sure you look around for lootables. Once you complete a mission you can't go back.

    Be aware that you don't need to keep probing planets for minerals. There are far more minerals spread across the galaxy than you'll ever need. But feel free to probe Uranus all you want.

    Usually when there's a paragon or renegated mid-conversation interrupt, if you skip it the other side will have an option afterwards (i.e. if you don't push the guy out the window with the renegate interrupt, you'll be able to talk him down with a paragon interrupt afterwards). It's usually best to go with the flow of your character...but some of them are tempting.


    Male Shepard is voiced by Mark Meer; female Shepard is voiced by Jennfier Hale. Everyone has their opinions on who is better. Overall I feel Hale is better in ME1 and Meer in ME2.

    I couldn't find a way to double-lime it, but that's exactly how I feel about her performance.

    I didn't lime the rest of your post because I don't particularly mind people claiming that FemShep is superior in regards to VA tracks. Who other people like to listen to doesn't matter to me all that much.
