The more I see of this sort of DLC, the more it just reinforces my thoughts that devs should stick to the traditional expansion pack model. Sadly though, it's only going to get worse as devs see how much moolah they can make off the steaming masses w...  [Read More]

Just tried out the Hammerhead DLC. Have to say it is pretty lame so far. It's basically platforming, as I guessed from watching the trailer, but no saving? Not even checkpoints/auto-saves? What idiot came up with that idea?...  [Read More]

I don't understand why everyone doesn't like the broken armor that Garrus has.It doesn't make any sense to keep wearing armour that has been compromised by heavy weaponry, especially one that has giant chunks missing. Not to mention it would have bee...  [Read More]

I don't really get this. They stripped out the RPG elements to appeal to the mass market shooter audience, a move they had to know would alienate their more traditional RPG fanbase. Now they turn around and say they are going to put it back in again?...  [Read More]

There are some config file edits for the PC version going around that allow you to change some of the "casual" outfits you can wear. The only other sort of mods for both ME 1 and 2 are texture overrides using TexMod. Nobody has managed to r...  [Read More]

I don't think that's the case, as some people have reported leaving him there with no ill effect. The general consensus seems to be that it is some sort of bug, seeing as it happens regardless of upgrades and loyalty. I always have him in my squad be...  [Read More]

Not from pre-rendered cutscenes obviously, but you could conceivably swap references to the masked model with the one for unmasked model used later in the game. It's the same principle as my Dawn Star model swap mods....  [Read More]

Indeed. Even after umpteen playthroughs where you know all the cues by heart, it never really loses that atmosphere. I think it's a good argument against all the people whining about clichéd settings in games. It takes a well worn old trope and...  [Read More]
