@Franky_AAA: Thank god for that. I was worried for a second, there.

@PatrickSwayze: Firepower like... the Predators shoulder cannon when fully charged? :D I took out 4 opponents in one shot with that bad boy. Haha.

@Franky_AAA: Well, excuse me for being un-acquainted with the technical details of 3D art, but perhaps he meant, as a collective, they're able to do millions more poly's. Not just on a single model.

@Strangelove: Maybe they'll make a new franchise that's better than Halo!

@yantelope: But the proof is in the pudding. Watch Bungie's latest ViDoc and they clearly show many of these graphical improvements.

@BloodEden: Nah. Marines are pretty awesome. I found through playing the demo lots that every race is fairly balanced with eachother; at least in my opinion they are.

I've played this game a fair amount and I agree... there's too much in the game basically making a military operation the best and most effective means of taking out your opponents.

@Ebendrath: I know, but I follow Kotaku religiously. It's a part of my internet routine, so I rely on them to give me information :P

I actually quite like the side quests in Mass Effect 2 so far. I've been playing about 7 hours and done a good 15 or so of them.

@Terrorsaur - Five Six: Mass Effect 3. My money's on that.

I guess this lack of an 18+ rating in Australia is like censorship really. I personally don't think it's right that, what I'd consider to be essentially be guidelines, are being used to stop people viewing content that another human being has free access too, like here in the U.K..

Their first trailer was better... probably only for the music. If any of you remember.

"Go To Hell" is "too far"?

I'm glad something like this has been discussed in one of your articles.

I am getting this game. I am going to be LAN'ing the shit out of this game with my friends, and I will play as a Marine. I will be hunted. I will be scared. I will die, a lot. I am going to LOVE this game :D
