  • Gosh I can't wait for ME3.

  • tip for people who hate mining... only mine rich planets... there is enough resources to get from rich planets to satisfy every upgrade in the game, and it takes less time then if you mine poorer planets as well

  • Thumbs up if your playing both ME1 & 2 in preperation for ME3

  • I love Mass Effect 2, but this review is terrible, because of how annoying the reviewer is.

  • This was the best game I've ever had the extreme pleasure of playing.

  • I still have to finish this game on insanity. Damn it. Skyrim has been too damn good for me to go back

  • I am currently playing ME2 on PC and mining is not bad at all, it's a change of pace from all the havoc. The real problem in my experience is the (1) Squad AI (2) Environmental Glitches (3) Game Crashes. I haven't gone a day with at least 2 of these so I can't say I'm getting the "best" experience from ME2. It's because of the first 2 of the issues that I welcome co-op in ME3.

    Cheers from the last hour of 2011 here in CA, USA.

  • @vilane421 get a 360

  • @vilane421 the mining is slower on the consoles using the joysticks than on the pc using the mouse

  • Y U NO PLAY PC?

  • Reading the genesis comic seems to be a fair summary of the ME1 plot. Am I missing out on anything major?

  • so many haters. I loved both ME1 and yes, definitely loved ME2. I felt they improved everything they could in ME2, sure some things they shouldn't have gotten rid of (leveling is too simple for me) and I don't like how few weapons there are but if you like the story, the epicness of Comm. Shepard, making decisions you will love it. Only people that don't like ME2 are those that weren't real fans of this game in the 1st place.

  • If you import your character from ME1 or ME2 you will start off with enough materials to buy the major upgrades. Just do that and you never need to probe again. =)

  • 2:38- Who else whants to do that to EA for removeing the Free Roam, Econemy, and the Percidium amung other things. (Yes, they should have kept the 1 minut sex sceens, and yes I am a pervert oh well.) No more Mako was a down fall, They have there own fanclub for christ sake! And the limited new weapons just all out suck balls. SMGs and the DLC M6 handcannon turns a Biotic into a just a soldier that throws shit. In comparison to the original game, 3 out of 5. Original game 12 out of 5.

  • ''Launching probe''....How many times did I hear that...

  • I'm commander sheaperd and this is the best damn game series in the universe so far.

  • @morganjloon1 No you're not, because Commander Shepard can spell his own name.

  • reviewer : mass effect 2 gets 5 out of ... (my reaction): BULL FUCKING SHIT ... (reviewer): 5 ! (my reaction) ...THIS REVIWER IS SO CORRECT

  • Commander Sessler.......I'm cool with this. 

  • Commander Sessler.......I'm cool with this.

  • if they ever make ME multiplayer it should be a seperate game entirely like a Mass Effect Universe, or Mass Effect Online, or Mass Effect Galaxies or something like that

  • mass effect 2 is amazing best rpg and action game i have played in a long time everyon should play it

  • @N7MassEffect3N7 I agree. However, it could become tedious, and wasn't as fun as the rest of the game.

  • Look. No multiplayer, Fuck multiplayer. ok its not gonna happen. If you want multiplayer go eat a dick.

  • Comment removed

  • @eftultimate i agree when a single player game goes multpalyer

    they put more effort in multplayer and i hate that

    because i like a game with a good story line and gameplay and not a bunch of random people killing each other calling each others noobs getting no where in the story line

  • Mining wasn't even bad

  • Somehow Bioware made a game better than the best game ever made.

  • my favorite part of mass effect 2 was probing uranus.

  • Why do the cuts in this game look like heated metal? I don't know that was just always a little weird to me.

  • @MrOmniscience The cuts on shepards face are parts where his skin hasn't fully grown back. Nearly his entire skeleton was replaced with metal after the first Normandy was destroyed.

  • @MrOmniscience Also, the cuts get worse if you go Renegade, and heal if you go Paragon.

  • This review, like all of the others, is not critical enough. In short, it's whorish.

  • @MinisterAilingTongue I agree with the 5/5 but he needed to go more in depth. I've lost a lot of interest in Xplay because it's just boring to watch anymore.

  • co op online would be awesome, but not matches like team deathmatch

  • @pakakaukik576pok i think firefight or horde mode would be pretty cool too

  • @pakakaukik576pok If they spent time trying to make a multiplayer the game would very much lack. It's not easy coming up with a viable online system that works well. That's why games where there is a multiplayer option the story almost always sucks a** because so much work and money is needed to go into maintaining servers and creating the multiplayer aspect.

  • I'd rather see an elevator conversation than 10 different loading screens. What was wrong with just 1 loading screen of the mass relay. Seriously though I die in 10 seconds after being brought back into the action, then I see a loading screen that last for 30 seconds. The 10 different loading screens get rid of those lol

  • sherpard is a woman WTF woman can't Shoot

  • excellent gameplay but not enough enemies to fight is the downside.. more tactical than any of the popular third person shooter i know.. and plus the many classes and play style to choose from , butat the same time i feel theres alot missing that they took out fthat was on the 1st game... which wouldve made this game more legendary... it was still lotsa fun, just not enough quest and enemies to satisfy you cause the gameplay is that good! oh yea and loveable characters and detailed storyline!

  • hey i actually like mining but only because i also play minecraft :)

  • Bioware has some sort of pattern with their games. In the begginning its kinda boring so im not really hooked but then there is this certain point in the game that is soo epic it gets me imediatly hooked. For example in KOTOR u becoming a jedi. Mass effect where u get the normandy. And dragon age when u get betrayed and start a quest to unite the various races to fight against the blight

  • @SCARZR So basically, you only play games for the high point.

    You'd only read books for the climax.

    Hence forth, you only want non-stop action instead of "degrading", or "Boring" beginnings and endparts.

    Go play COD

  • @Lannnyto No you dont get it

  • damn u for pausing when u said "this gives me2 a five..." cuz i was like WHAT? A FIVE OUT OF TEN? and hten of course after that u had to say five

  • ign would be like "9.02"

  • With both Mass Effect 1 & 2 you need to sit down and complete first playthroughs over a few days. Not the kind of game where you can just play an hour or two then come back a week later. That was my mistake at first, I really didn't click with ME when I first played. But now its up there with the best games I've played. If you put in the hours, both games are very rewarding.

  • I have to say.... they dropped the ball on this game. It just didn't have replay value like the first and was too TPS. I don't care if it's a shooter with a few more grenade launchers, the story felt bland and was more of a filler than a sequel. I just hope ME3 isn't a travesty, considering they decided to change the gameplay AGAIN.

  • @nyuurocks No, they didn't! This is much better than the first Mass Effect IMO. I just like the characters more, the story progress well from the first to this one. There isn't as much of the RPG elements, but I think it's good as it is in ME2. But I can't wait for ME3, lets just hope they will top this game :)

  • @nyuurocks "didn't have replay value"

    *chuckle*

    "a shooter with a few more grenade launchers"

    *Laugh*

    "more of a filler than a sequel"

    You sound SO freaking retarded!

  • XPlay like Mass Effect?!? I wouldn't think they would because it's not a call of duty clone with someone dying every 30 seconds.

  • Mass Effect > Dragon Age > Halo > horseshit > Call of Duty

  • @BearFang666 Glad you put Halo before you got to the worse games. =P

  • Raise your hand if you hate when a good game gets "streamlined."

  • I'm Commander Shepherd, and Tali is my favorite girl in the Galaxy

  • I actually don't miss the mako and I like the mining I hate the new cidtidel and the armor system I loved all the different armor in mass effect 1 I hope they at least let u change ur armor paint job in mass effect 3

  • somehow i missed a lot about mass effect 1 that i hated. i liked the undark story, the elevator rides, the mako. and especially i missed the citadel. i dont like the new citadel from me2.

  • penis

  • Space opera with FPS really sucks ass!!

  • PLS HELP ME! i have enough to buy mass effect 2, but if i save a bit more, i can get red dead redemption. should i wait or just buy mass effect 2?

  • @bahnanno1

    MASS. EFFECT. 2. It's fucking amazing, you won't regret it.

  • @bahnanno1

    do NOT get red dead redemption it sux ass trust me

    get mass effect 2

  • @chan0chap just ordered mass effect 2 :) thanks

  • @chan0chap Get both mothafucka !! they are awesome games i have both i love them !!

  • @DarkCat500

    red dead sux cuz the horses dont carry a radio

  • lmao "dammit" 2:24

  • RPG faker.

  • @TheKestevon Man your everywhere. If you hate WRPG's so much dont bother watching the trailers or reviews at all. Go play your overrated FF7.

  • DAMN I MISS THE MAKO!!!

    that thing was sooo much fun to just land on a vacant planet and srew ppl over with.

    Heres hoping they bring it back as some kind of uber hover tank in ME3....!

  • Mass Effect is the only game series on XBox 360 that I really wanted to play. Glad it's making its way to the PS3. Can't wait!

  • I just finished this game... it was fucking amazing! i played the first one several times through and intend on doing the same for this one! They fixed lots of annoying things as well, its awesome!

  • I love this game.....but why is there barely anymore jumping in games anymore?lol

  • No platforming = Fail

    Gay sex = Fail

    

  • @Entropy56 So No Platforming= Gay Sex?

  • @gameman64141 Gay Platforming = No Sex = Fail

  • this game needs more game changing choices

  • if you think this game needs a multiplayer then either you never played it or you had the attention span of a dry sponge to understand the story/game. bioware needs to continue focusing on story than divert the resources to something gimmicky.

  • its been years... since psx generation where i actually had the interest of completing the game. this game doesnt force you care about the characters *cough* ffxiii.

  • look fun, can't wait for PS3 version

  • Thumbs up if you F*CKING LOVE THIS GAME!!!

  • no game has ever made me think so hard about my choices while i was not playing, favorite game. period.

  • Mass Effect gets a five..... Out of five. lol

  • I just got BONER!!!

  • i think bioware should bring mass efect 3 out in october because nobady cares about great game like this that game out at the beggining of the year but get totally hyped up for game out near the end of the year

  • >no more elevator rides

    >no more Mako

    But those were the best parts of Mass Effect...

  • @Osutin true that. i first hated it but when i played ME2 i fucking missed them

  • @Osutin The elevator rides were hilarious and were nice downtime, but I completely disagree about the Mako. The vehicle physics were absolute bullshit. I do think that they should have revamped the Mako stuff instead of the stupid probe system, but still.

  • @Osutin so you liked waiting for five minutes in an elevator in video games?

  • @Osutin i didn't like either

  • @Osutin agreed

  • @Osutin Less thresher maws? Yep I can live with it

  • @Osutin In this game, you battle boredom while watching crappy loading screnes and while using the planet cursor. Is that any better? It's a lot worse. During the elevator rides, you could listen to dialogue. I didn't like the Mako because the left and right analogue thumb sticks were dependent on one another. Left for driving and right for the turret. The frame of reference is the goddamned turret which is stupid. The frame of reference should be the body of the vehicle as in any real vehicle.

  • @Osutin what r u talking about? all the mako was good at was climbing 90 degree angles and those stupid elevators where a total piss off (especially on novaria or however u spell it)

  • good game

  • @kilaMG more like....the most sucessful game franchise ever made

  • thought you were gonna say 5/10 and my heart stopped... i could have died because of that one second dramatic pause!

  • Am I The Only One Who Wants The Elevator Back......and dare i say the mako...???

  • @masterkill107 it already does. just cause it doesn't have multiplayer, doesn't necessarily mean it isn't better.

  • Can't wait for this to come to PS3. Wish Mass Effect 1 was coming too though, I liked the first one better.

  • maybe the people who made this should put multplayer in mass effect 3

  • @Ungodlyvideos, no!, it will make the game shorter!

  • Awesome!! Cant wait to get this on ps3!!

  • @batista6242 i hate that!!i mean, i dont hate that ps3 users get to have 360 games but i do hate that they do and we dont with ur awesome exclusives, might buy a ps3 just for gow 3 gt5 and infamous

  • It's obvious that once the TV stations switched, as well as the management, Adam's creative comedic genius was supressed by those corporate bullies. You can see it in his eyes.

  • @WilliamCajina Oblivion man I love ME2 but oblivion will keep that itle for a lonnnnng time

  • @ALLIED7621 oblivion sucks its so boring

  • @CriminalIntent89 bitch your boring!

  • the only people who disliked it were, Saren, the Soveriegn, The big stupid jellyfish, Udina, the Reporter, and a Prothean the had his cotnrol directly assumed.

  • @saintsmurphy you sir, are full of win

  • i really hated ashley and kaidan in this game (i saved different ones in dif playthroughs) they turn into such whiny bitches in this one >.<

  • Most interesting cast of characters ever in a game.

  • @OctaviusSH i agree with u on that one but pretty much all BioWare games have great chars not just the Mass Effect trilogy, case and point Dragon Age: Origins

  • thi sreview is awesome 5/5 well deserved and somebody acknowledge that shepard can also be a chick

  • the 6 dislikes have no taste in good games.

  • @zeroliberty0 The 6 dislikes were the same guy who nit picked the game and hated it so much, he made 6 accounts JUST to dislike this video.

  • 10/10

  • I'm not being a fanboy but. . .I'm sooooo happy this is coming to PS3!! WOOP!

  • When this came out, I thought it was already a contender for Game of the Year. I loved it!  I still do, it is so much fun!

  • I actually really like the mining. >.<

  • @c0d3w0rd lemme guess, eve online player? :)

  • @erakus No, I tried the trial and gave it 5 Minutes. In that 5 minutes I flew a spaceship. It was cool for the first minute, after that I uninstalled. XD

  • @c0d3w0rd faggot

  • @ShibbidyBoop That is kind of rude.

  • I think Mass Effect is a pretty cool guy. Eh bones alien chicks and doesn't afraid of anything.

  • @BLACKIESBOY You mean Shepherd... XD

  • Is this game REALLY that great. I watched a few videos of Mass Effect 1 and 2. The first one looks kinda iffy the second one looks good. I'm kinda into RPGs. I really liked Fallout 3. Should i actually get it?

  • @dereklikesstuff Yes...yes you should.

  • 2(mass effect 1 + mass effect 2) playthroughs= awesome

  • @WilliamCajina but they put more of the third person shooter elements in it

  • @WilliamCajina i have to disagree the MASS EFFECT SERIES ARE THE BEST : ]

  • is it worth playing mass effect 1 if i already beat mass effect 2

  • @thepackforever DUH IF YOU WANT THE FULL EXPERIANCE OF THE TRILOGY .

    you can import you characters from each game so play the first game then play Mass effect 2 again things will be different depending how you played teh first will affect the 2nd and the choices you make in Mass effect 2 will affect mass effect 3

  • @thepackforever you played ME2 the experience is basically the same but it tells you more about the story and you actually have unlimited ammo (bioware never really explained that)

  • @thepackforever if you want to learn the history of ME 2 then yes

  • This game is good, but it took out to many of the RPG elements from the first game. A mix between 1 and 2 would be awesome.

  • To all of you hating on this game: I happen to LOVE this game. It was well done, and like all games there are a few parts that could be improved but overall its an incredible game

  • Shepard murked that krogan with the incendiary shotgun...Muahha...So stoked I just picked this up today!!

  • mass effect one sucks in the side mission department so repetitive and tedious, glad mass effect 2 is pure awesomeness

  • lol 2:36

    ur working too hard.

    aaaaaaaaghh

    aughhhhhhhhhhh

    aghhhhhhhhh

  • X-Play...a good review? Whaaaaat?!

  • i think that all the custom faces look terrible xD i like the default one personally :}

  • @AlwaysXToasted What freaking custom faces?

  • @TurnOnLamp the ones that aren't the default one? lolol

  • @AlwaysXToasted yeah but o hate the default class

  • @ointment500 I* not o

  • @AlwaysXToasted i know i tried to to do custom i always get a fat pale asian guy

  • LOL adam sessler's characters are always hideous.

  • I bought this game and returned it a few days later because there were no boobies. My friend told me it had boobies in it... :(

  • @IguanaLuvr lmfao,didnt you read why it was rated M?in the first on there is a sex scene though

  • @ointment500 Really? I never saw a sex scene in the first one.

  • @InsideAVitalSuit yeah whoever you choose to fall in love with in the game is who you have it with look it up,there scenes in both of the games

  • @ointment500 I see...I probably never saw a sex scene because I didn't do any side quests really...I finished the game in like 16 hrs or something. I'm replaying it though and I'm going to do all the side quests even though most of em seem boring.

  • @InsideAVitalSuit you dont have to do any side quests but you do have to talk to liara,i think she's the only possible romance option

  • @ointment500 Hmm that's weird, I had Liara in my party for basically the whole time....Maybe I didn't upgrade my charm thing enough. I never really had any option for romance so I didn't think it could go down in that game, lol...

  • @InsideAVitalSuit after each mission talk to her and and it will go down(wink,wink)before the suicide mission

  • @ointment500 Cool thanks man! I'm gonna go have sex with a blue ALIEN!!!

  • @InsideAVitalSuit have fun,becareful though*you might get blue herpies

  • @ointment500 lol, blue balls literally....kind of like fucking a futuristic humanoid size Smurf.

  • @InsideAVitalSuit lol,i was thinking that its more along the line of fucking an avatar

  • @ointment500 Lol hahah! A Navi..

  • @InsideAVitalSuit really someone has to tell phillip defranco because he is always talking about that

  • @IguanaLuvr um... thats perverted, oh well u passed up one hell of a game. oh and by the way you get to see some at the end of the game anyway so that double sucks for you

  • LMAO!!! 2:36 

  • @DeadFrontierN4 I wonder who DIDN'T make that choice! LOL

  • I wanna play the ME series but I already have a Ps3 and I don't wanna waste money on a console just for 1 game so I guess I have to wait untill EA releases a Ps3 version of the series.

  • @CanderousXOrdo buy it for the pc then, doesnt require a hefty computer

  • @stupidlambo Well I got a somewhat old Pc atm but it still works like a charm so I'll be just wasting money if I bought a new pc while my old one is still working.

  • I'm planning to pick this up soon. if you convince wrex in the first game is he in the second because i looked up all the party members and he wasnt in there. its really dissapointing seeing as my favorite party from the first was garrus and wrex

  • @ButcheredAtBirth77 u can convince wrex???

  • @ointment500 yeah on planet virmire when he saysyou shouldnt destroy the genophage. You can charm him, or do his sidequest wrex family armor and say the right things you dont kill him. you get it by talking to him occasionally, or you can go to tuntau or what ever its called (its a planet idk where) and when you go into the merc base he
