Saw the advertisement during the NFC Championship game last night (**** you, Vikings!). It was pretty uninspired. Everyone watching was confused about the whole thing.

I just saw video gameplay of the first level and character creation from an imported Mass Effect 1 character...

GOTY winner without a doubt. Forget about the rest of the games coming out this year.

9.6 on IGN. I know the IGN review has been posted already, but I decided to embed the video review

edit: the youtube embed code doesn't work anymore?

Also, here is an awesome quote from TIME magazine.

"The state of the art in grand-scale, two-disc space operas, Mass Effect 2 picks up two years after the end of the first installment of its galactic-noir story line. With beefier combat added to the role-playing, it's the Avatar of video games — except it's better written."

I think it was a great trailer. The music alone (Heart of Courage) is enough to get me excited to play the game. How was it confusing? From a trailers perspective, it's pretty straight forward.

Avatar is rubbish compared to Mass Effect 2. I detested Avatar even though I am huge fan of cyberpunk/space/technology (sci fi in general). Mass Effect 2 is well written, intelligent and has fantastic pacing unlike Avatar, which was simply eye candy.

Do USA downloads works on UK accounts of Mass effect 2 ? Anyone download the above ?

I have sent my UK buddy (I'm in Canada even) games that are not available there many times, and had no issues.

Not to mention that Mass Effect has the original (and better) hot/sexy blue aliens.
