that sucks id rather hear the conversations than a loading screen. lame..

I didn't mind the elevator rides for that reason alone. I liked listening to the radio chatter. Granted, I played ME on PC so the loading times were fairly short so I didn't have to sit through the long, awkward silence after the radio stopped.

This is the one of the occasional instances in which gamer ?????ing makes matters worse.
 
Thanks for the info - that is a step backward. Just go to the Bioware forums. Some Mass effect fans are this generation's Trekkies: sad, angry, ????-retentive type geeks that talk just for the sake of it. I hate even going to their forums anymore.
 
Hopefully mass effect 2 has less glitches than the first. The first was an amazing game, but it had the WORST glitches I've ever come across in games - the kind where you just defeated a boss, and it tries to cut to a scene and the load fails, among many other frustrating, controller smashing moments.

They also need to completely redo the makos controls. Worst vehicle ever.

BioWare has revealed the voice cast for Mass Effect 2, with a cast of new and returning voice actors that covers just about every corner of science fiction fandom.

Of course the biggest addition to the Mass Effect 2, Martin Sheen as the Illusive Man, has already been outed, but he's just the tip of the iceberg as far as new cast members are concerned. BioWare has pulled in talent from multiple television and movie properties in order to help facilitate a more emotionally engaging story.

We've got Tricia Helfer and Michael Hogan from Battlestar Galactica playing the voice of the new Normandy and Captain Bailey respectively. From NBC's Chuck comes Yvonne Strahovski as genetically engineered Cerberus operative Miranda Lawson, joined by co-star Adam Baldwin, better known as Firefly's Jayne Cobb, who'll be taking on the role of Kal ‘Reegar. Marina Sirtis from the original Mass Effect taps out and fellow Star Trek: The Next Generation cast member Michael "Worf" Dorn taps in as Gatatog Uvenk. The Matrix's Carrie-Anne Moss portrays Aria Y'Loak, the crime lord who rules the planet Omega. Finally we have Emmy-award winning House of Saddam star Shohreh Aghdashloo will play the role of Admiral Shala'Raan vas Tonbay.

And of course we can't forget returning cast members Seth Green, who had some of the first game's best lines as Normandy pilot Joker, and The Chronicles of Riddick's Keith David, returning as Admiral David Anderson.

What an awesome cast!! And I'm sure the actor and actress who voiced Captain Shepherd from ME1 will be back.
 
i just bought mass effect 1 from gohastings.com for 11$. Once i get bored of borderlands i will play through in preparation of ME2.
