[QUOTE=Goldenboy;34576112][img]http://i.imgur.com/iKqyq.png[/img][/QUOTE] Covering all the bases
[QUOTE=ironman17;34576472]$299?! Is that for the main game or for a super-special ultra-mega edition? $299's nearly the price of the Xbox 360 on launch in North America! Damn expensive if you ask me.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=Craig Willmore;34576591][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/Qj9x4.png[/IMG][/QUOTE] [t]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7211550/should_kept_the_base.png[/t] Sorry, I was wrong about the price, still too expensive.
hello i'm the only human in the world who gets frustrated at ME2 normal difficulty. nice to meet you.
I played 2 on hardcore i got to the praetorian in the [sp]collector's ship[/sp] and gave up

[QUOTE=DX_V;34577460]I'm flat out amazed that you guys are getting bent out of shape about this [i]now[/i]. They've been doing this shit for months, and we've known about the leaked info for awhile. This thread was up in arms in defense over Bioware's storytelling and marketing (maybe not marketing as much, but I certainly didn't see many people complaining about it, instead I saw people using it as an excuse 'Oh well, it's probably just marketing') in the [i]last thread[/i], why is it that you guys are suddenly angry about this information now, like it's new or surprising?[/QUOTE] "[I]I was complaining before it was ~mainstream~, goddamn posers[/I]"
[QUOTE=27X;34579111]Or you could just run around the pillars and shoot it til it's dead.[/QUOTE] i did that, but the collectors always came from behind
[QUOTE=Haxxer;34579171]i did that, but the collectors always came from behind[/QUOTE] Shoot husks as they come in, Start dragging the praetorian around. Have squad shoot collectors and shoot them yourself when you can. Usually does it
i remember modding ME2 to be so hard that playing on Insanity non-modded was like playing on easy, i made the weapons do so much damage that a 3-5 burst will rape your shields and then rape you for not using cover and not timing your shots. hard but very fun.

Shields would only hold up to a bit of fire.
[QUOTE=Jetamo;34573474]Guys, it was a leaked script, doesn't mean it was 100% finished.[/QUOTE] [thumb]http://i.imgur.com/iFrjH.jpg[/thumb] [QUOTE=WeekendWarrior;34573394]Hooray for Bioware fucking shit up majorly.[/QUOTE] That's what people realized months ago. I've read every single word of the leaked script. Nobody can call us arrogant or self-righteous pricks now. WE WE'RE PIONEERS. [QUOTE=JeanLuc761;34573981]Y'know, I'm a die-hard Bioware defender but stuff like this? We've all known for a long time that they've been pushing ME3 is a standalone title, but to dismiss the prior two games as PREQUELS? I don't know what they're smoking over there, but it must be good.[/QUOTE] I expected to enjoy this moment, but I'm no self-righteous jerk and rather want the game to be good than to be right.

First you are a hater, when they realize you were right after all it backfires even harder. I feel you brother, we're in this together.
Just finished the leviathan on Kotor again, on my way to wookie land now to finish it off. I love how bioware had put in little hints about the big reveal across the whole game, and the reviewed them. I hope they do somthing similar with the apparent big reveal in me3. There have been very subtle hints thus far but to have a few in me3 would be enjoyable. From what I hear I'm beginning to think that people don't like the scrIpt much.

I've ALWAYS been frustrated with Bioware's marketing, specifically that of "Mass Effect 3 is a great entry point." However, I was never expecting them (or Microsoft) to blatantly dismiss the first two games as though they're entirely irrelevant. I suppose I should have expected it, but to hear it said so clearly is remarkable.

Now I've taken the time to think about it, Bioware has literally killed every recent game series I though was good they made. DA? DA2. KotOR? TOR So if ME3 is the spearhead that ends the series, I'm just giving up on Bioware as it is.

[QUOTE=mercurius;34580057][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/oSik9.png[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/X1prV.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE] what is this? How do we know Miranda will look like this in ME3, or is this just what they [i]should[/i] be doing?
[QUOTE=tommo400;34580443]what is this? How do we know Miranda will look like this in ME3, or is this just what they [i]should[/i] be doing?[/QUOTE] I'm pretty sure it's what they should be doing, considering their work on the recent characters. If it honestly were what they were doing, why the fuck aren't they doing that with the other characters?
[QUOTE=tommo400;34580443]what is this? How do we know Miranda will look like this in ME3, or is this just what they [I]should[/I] be doing?[/QUOTE] I'm sure it's just a photoshop because the background never changes. Don't take the ME3 logo seriously, this rather means: "How it could look with [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/sC0PR.gif[/IMG]" [editline]7th February 2012[/editline] Also what Fables just said and I think they should work on Jacob's teeth.

The uncanney valley is a feature, they're meant to look like that. It does make for a fascinating study into how people react and what works though. I'm curious to see how things will go from here.

Well, it's more specifically due to the fact they're very cheesy sounding about Mass Effect over anything else.
Holy shit I forgot how great everything is post-Illos. I think I spent half the fight to saren gawping at how fucking huge Sovereign is. Shame you can't actually get smooshed by one of his feelers

Is that just a really good edit of Yvonne's face onto the original picture?
Nah she looks nothing like Yvonne now [img]http://i.imgur.com/BHZNi.jpg[/img]
God, it just reminds me of how much they screwed up her face in the first place. It goes past uncanny valley, there are a few things like her entire jaw and cheek structure were puffed up or wrong in general. And then half assed the animations.
