Damn, Xk to the rescue AGAIN!

Now if only I still didn't have DNS problems with the server ... at least evogaming works magically again.

The board being up again ... that's my present, errr, even though I didn't do much! |

Honestly can't say I was a big fan of this one ladies and gentlemen.

Gameplay was just too simplistic and repetitive for my liking (probably mainly due to the combat) and the lack of variety with the missions just got old. I also couldn't really get into the plot, though towards the end it was getting pretty awesome ... until the actual ending itself. Eventually though I felt like I was forcing myself to finish it. Just to be more picky also, this game needed about 100 more spoken dialogue's ... "Who is responsible for this!?" most of the lines got insanely old and annoying. But still some people just love it. Its something everyone should give a shot and at least rent. The quality is there, with superb graphics, music, animations and everything, it just kind of lacks some cowbell I guess.

Its an absolute must own folks. Its very late while I type this, so grammar and whatnot may be off ...

I'll get the bad out of the way first: - Technical issues riddle the game at times, this is kind of expected with Bioware games I guess though. The framerate is bumpy at times but worse than this is textures popping in and out, usually when you enter a new place. But if you're someone who's gotten used to this since Halo 2, its not a big deal. The absolute worst bug though is that you can get stuck in somethings at times, but this has rarely happened. - Items get rather dull and uninteresting. There's really not a lot of customization with weapons and that's all you can buy, equipment. The guns don't have different models, instead they just change palatte's. My ultimate tip is at the beginning of the game convert all items you aren't going to equip to Omni-gel, then later in the game sell them. Why? There's a 150 item limit that you can hit insanely fast. Because of the massive selling, you'll find yourself having practically infinite money throughout the majority of the game. - Sidequests are insanely repetitive, the unexplored planet ones. Land on the planet, go to a few dig sites getting minerals and items, then go into some bunkers, kill some stuff. Repeat this 30 more times or so. The silly explanations like "Oh this science team is missing" or "The Geth have a camp here" doesn't really cut it either, its just really basic. BUT, its still fun if you like leveling up and getting some good drops. Driving around on the planets was the worst though, wasn't a fan of the Mako ... Besides that stuff, this is among my top favorite games currently on the 360. It took me a chunky 30 hours to finally finish and I completed a good chunk of the sidequests and everything. Characters are absolutely amazing and the choices in dialogue are excellent. This is also one of the first next-gen RPG's I've played again directly after beating it. Right away, I went into the game to start up a New Game + and to try out being completely evil while bumping up the difficulty a bit. Its amazing seeing how different your choices effect things and just how much it completely redefines your character. The cool part with New Game + is that the enemies basically level up with you, so right off the bat you're fighting worthwhile foes and getting great drops. I can see myself playing again with other classes again as well, to try out new tactics and whatnot. Achievements in this game also unlock bonuses for new games and characters, for the ultimate diehard players here you can eventually make your character pretty godly. The music, art design, and the plot, are all extremely way above par. The originality is through the roof and while the end sets it up perfectly for the next installments in the series (its been stated to be a Trilogy), the ending is still extremely satisfying and leaves you off with great closure. Think Star Wars Episode IV. You will truly feel like you accomplished something, while the true battle awaits in the future. (Last edited by XeoLVII on 12-04-07 07:41 AM)

It was pretty dramatic there, killing someone off they actually won't revive. Kind of sad he didn't do much in this Season anyways, but yeah. Now Peter is going to be a full blown emo?

What they did to Adam was pretty amazing. I mean that is TERRIBLE. I really wish he'd make a return in the future, somehow getting out, who knows though. I want to know what's up with the scene where Bennett visited his family, then came out and told Bob "It's done". Good to see Sylar is back. (restricted) |

Ragnarok was the only one that really pulled me in (when we played). Too much dedication and time though I guess, that's probably why I'm not the biggest MMORPG fan. |

Yeah it was awesome seeing him flip out and going crazy for awhile there.
|
Weird L of all people was the one to come in and knock him up though.

Wow, this seems insanely awesome.

I'm not sure about adding points to the RPG status, but I can easily add another field in everyones profiles for points and then probably just manually put them in.
