Mass Effect 2

I'm on Insanity right now, t'was a very rough start but now it's just slightly challenging.

Unrelated, I've replaced my L4D2 infected spawning sound with "Assuming direct control of this form". Fitting.

Also, prolonged oral contact with Thane may cause hallucinations. Or at least Mordin says so.

Finally, a short conversation with Admiral Zaal'Koris vas Qwib Qwib revealed that there is a ship in the flotilla called Iktomi. Geddit?

Finished and everyone lived. 54 hours according to XFire, not bad for a singleplayer game, plus I dinged 5,000 XFire hours. Fucking hell.

Hmm. I got 53 hours. That's a pretty specific amount (and yes, a good stretch for single player). Although as with any game in the last year and a half, I spent a good portion of that AFK.

Just finished in 37 hours, excellence :D

Finished my renegade run through.

Spoiler:

Started a female shepard from scratch for a minimal run to see death. That, and I'm tired of being a soldier. Gonna try and keep my paragon/renegade stuff to a bare minimum.

It's also interesting that if you start from scratch

Finished first play through last night after 64 hours

Not quite sure how I managed to take that long but I did (I think) almost every mission available. I'm only 670 off getting the level 30 shiny, so I might spend a couple of more hours wandering around to see if I missed anything.

Everything bar the last assault rifle and biotic damage fully upgraded, all team members loyal and ended up at 100% Paragon and ~75% Renegade.

Spoiler:

Also, whilst I was reveling in my post victory glow and watching the credits roll by I noticed some of the other cast members: Tricia Helfer, Carrie-Ann Moss even ol' Howling Mad Murdoch.

No wonder I got the wrong-horn whenever Edi spoke to me

I did a lol at Joker's robot impression.

For the last bits I used:

Spoiler:

Since I'm pretty sure I did every mission, I'm not in a massive hurry to play through again, other than to get the twelfth squad member, but I don't think I can face scanning all those planets again.

I've been trying to think of who Zaeed's voice remind me of. I've just got it.

I liked Zaeed's gurn when Shep talked about everyone getting scars in her uplifting pep talk.

Done it in 40 and a bit hours. Loved it. The story was a bit predictable but the characters were amazing.

One thing I really didn't like about sexing people up was having to look at my default faced Shepard smile, what a prick. Why couldn't he keep his face mask on in the ship as well.

And the Tali romance
