Mass Effect 2

Greetings, previously on the blog I had given Mass Effect the reward of Super Duper fantastic 100% the best and the sequel deserves it to. In Mass Effect two you have the choice to carry on your old Mass Effect character and develop them further as the story progresses. The game has limited the amount of exploration, which is good to a degree in that you don't have to search everywhere to find someone or something, and has new features in areas such as buying fuel to travel.

The story takes place a few months after Mass Effect, when Commander Shepard and the crew are destroying any remaining Geth who followed Saren. A strange ship is detected by the Normandy but it is too late to outmaneuver its beams, most of the crew make it out safely apart from Navigator Adams. In an attempt to rescue the pilot Commander Shepard stays aboard the Normandy until Joker is safe but unfortunately is knocked into space unable to be helped. Shepard wakes up in a facility two years later after being healed during operation Lazarus, Cerberus, a pro-human terrorist organization is found to be responsible for saving Shepard. They brought him back from the verge of death to stop alien creatures called Collectors, who are attacking human colonies and are working for the Reapers. To understand the plot the first Mass Effect has to be known, to prevent the Collectors Commander Shepard needs to build a new and vastly bigger squad as the others are continuing the life they are living since the attack on the Normandy. Despite this a few friendly faces can be seen, among the new squad are Jacob and Miranda who where in Mass Effect Galaxy, which I had reviewed a few weeks ago. I highly encourage people to play this game, it is one of my favorite games and I wait for Mass Effect three patiently. The eleventh, twelfth and thirteenth chapter of the War for humankind is in the Warehouse.

Quote of the day

You gotta be a little skeptical, Sharona. Otherwise you end up believing in everything — UFOs, elves, income tax rebates...

Yeah, I've heard a lot of good things about this game and it does look pretty cool. I have been meaning to try out the demo on Steam at some stage, so I might give that a go after Dead Rising 2.
