[Official] Mass Effect 2


Recommended Posts

I was hoping Jack Wall would work on Mass Effect 3. He was a great composer. As for Duncan Jones, I definitely enjoyed listening to his work in movies like Moon and Pi.

Hopefully Clint will do a similar music to jack wall, and not something completely different.

Duncan Jones was the director of Moon, Clint Mansell did the music for Pi and Moon, also the music of Smokin' Aces, check out the final scene, that music is hauntingly beautiful

You're right. I was thinking of Clint Mansell but I typed Duncan Jones instead. Silly me! :pinch:

Watching the ME3 teaser again somehow ME seemed to parallel the terminator movies in a way. The first 2 games you spent trying to stop the even from taking place and now the teaser tells us it was inevitable. Of course we know it won't end there. :whistle:

Is there a version of Mass Effect 2 for the 360 that comes with all the DLC released?

there might be in a few months after the last dlc pack is released. i know they did it with dragon age so i would assume they would do it with mass effect 2 as well.

EA confirms March 29 release for Mass Effect 2 Arrival DLC

EA?s confirmed a March 29 launch for the final Mass Effect 2 DLC, Arrival.

EG.de first reported on the news, but EA UK has now confirmed it.

The DLC, which will launch on PC, 360 and PS3, sees Shepard being sent to the ?border of the galaxy? to rescue a female undercover agent that might have evidence for an upcoming Reaper invasion.

Sound familiar?

Admiral Hackett, who is voiced by Lance Henriksen, will also return to play a ?major? role.

I'm so glad BioWare is releasing this last bit of DLC before the release of Mass Effect 3. It should tie in well with the game's sequel. (Y)

Glad we will finally get to meet Admiral Hackett, I've always liked that guy...

Same here. He definitely had that "mysteriousness" to him.

In other news, Mass Effect 2 to won 'Best Game' at the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) Awards.

Can't wait, I've had 900+ MS Points saved waiting on my account for this last piece of DLC, can't wait for it and can't wait for ME3. :D

Yea will be interesting to see him, he along with say how the Quarians look and female Krogans and have been something we just haven't seen but is always alluded to during the games, will be one thing to finally have revealed before ME3 hits.

I'm wondering how much these DLC packs will affect ME3 though, Shadow Broker had a somewhat dramatic change to part of the story and I wonder if this will too and how both will be addressed for those that don't buy the packs.

Good thing I remembered right, they always said they would tie ME2 right into ME3 directly with DLC, this last pack seems to do exactly that. I hope more game devs take notes and do this with games that have sequels planned from the get go.

Awesome.

I'm still waiting for the price of the PS3 version to drop though.

It was ?24 at Tesco, with 9% cashback, how much do you want it to drop? :rofl:

I know it's probably not quite the right topic and liable to get me flamed. But bought 1 & 2 and playing through the first. It's good, but what I don't get is the amount of xbox fans that bang on about MGS being an interactive film, when being honest, this is far behind from what I've played so far. So much dialogue with the odd bit of shooting and exploring.... am I missing something?

Yes, good taste so you can appreciate the plot without nagging.

Oh that's not the case, I appreciate it as a good game nothing wrong there. But where is it so different to the MGS series in that it is a great story telling game. Yet people bang on as if it's a big snoozefest of a film. This so far seems no difference in game/story balance.

    • You can't, if you didn't notice, it doesn't support surround at all, it's right in the spec list.
    • Hi — I’m always interested in soundcards. Like displays, I just want to know I’m getting as much clean “sonic juice” into my brain as possible as the years take their toll. I’m not entirely sure what to take away from this review, though. It doesn’t really tell me whether the AE‑X is a good product or who it’s actually for. Most of what I’m getting is: there’s a driver to install, here’s what it looks like, and here’s what’s in the box. There’s a lot of emphasis on the SPDIF input. When you mention not needing to switch headphones between console and PC — does that mean the PC has to be powered on just to pass audio through? That seems like a fairly big waste of energy. Is this more something a streamer would use alongside a capture card? How are you testing the sound? (Also, you might want to clarify that you’re using the headphones in wired mode when you mention they’re wireless.) You mention the lack of EMI shielding — how much real‑world difference does that make compared with typical motherboard audio? On multi‑channel: what exactly isn’t supported? Does this mean Windows spatial audio (Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, etc.) won’t work, or just that the card itself doesn’t decode surround formats? And are there any true multi‑driver “surround” headphones left that would even use that? You also highlight support for high‑impedance headphones — but what does that translate to in practice? How does it compare to driving the same headphones from a normal device, and does it make any difference for everyday, lower‑impedance models? In short, who is this card actually targeted at?
    • Yes, THIS is wordart, not the styling that can now be done. Wordart was all about those curvy words, that you could change the path of, like making words go around a circle. I don't think it can be done now, right?
    • Just saw a news report of a Waymo driving into a flooded road.
    • Password Safe 3.72.0 by Razvan Serea Password Safe is a password database utility. Like many other such products, commercial and otherwise, it stores your passwords in an encrypted file, allowing you to remember only one password (the "safe combination"), instead of all the username/password combinations that you use. Once stored, your user names and passwords are just a few clicks away. Using Password Safe you can organize your passwords using your own customizable references—for example, by user ID, category, web site, or location. You can choose to store all your passwords in a single encrypted master password list (an encrypted password database), or use multiple databases to further organize your passwords (work and home, for example). And with its intuitive interface you will be up and running in minutes. PasswordSafe was originally designed by the renowned security technologist Bruce Schneier and released as a free utility application. Password Safe 3.72.0 changelog: Fixed bugs Improved font scale handling - should resolve font size issues on high resolution displays. GH1749 In the Master Password Setup window, "Show Master Password" is no longer truncated on some displays. GH1092, SF1595 Size and position of main window is now correctly restored on scaled displays. SF1630 Keep password expiry date when both password and password expiry are changed; don't clear a non-recurring expiry when the password's changed. SF1628 Custom values can now be copied to the clipboard in read-only mode via Ctrl-C and right-click->Copy Value. New features GH1196 Dark display mode support: Password Safe now supports the system display mode, as well as setting the mode directly via Manage->Options->Display->Display Mode. This change also updates the general "look & feel" of the app to the current Windows theme. Known limitations: The Date picker and keyboard shortcut controls do not switch to dark theme The Customize Toolbar dialog does not switch to dark theme Custom Field support has been added to the more advanced features: Filters XML and Text import and export Comparison, Sync and Merge databases SF938 Custom field values may now be selected by name and copied via a "Copy Custom Field Value..." submenu in the entry context popup menu. SF936 Notes and Custom fields layout now overlap, selectable by tabs, resulting in a more compact and less cluttered layout.
