One of the things you might not have heard is the fact that the new Action Adventure RPG developed by Bioware under Electronic Arts is every computer geeks wet dream. Great game play, great story and best of all depending on your choices you can "Do it" with almost all the girl characters. Which is as close to sex as you nerds will ever get. I kid. On those lonely nights there is always Sasha Grey. This is a "nice" game so you don't really see anything but they do leave you with quite a lot to imagine. One thing that does bother me though is that pixelated sex between the characters still isn't quite spot on just yet. Just the the puppets from "Team America".

What is quite spot on in more ways than one however is the visuals and game play. Mass Effect 2, or ME2 for us cool people, is the continuation to Mass Effect 1 (yup Captain Obvious strikes again) and was released on Xbox 360 and PC. The game starts out with Commander Shepard's ship the Normandy getting blown up. Shepard pretty much dies there and ends up lost in space. Don't worry though because in the future when you're dead they can always bring you back. He comes back to life 2 years later to do battle with a new mysterious alien race called The Collectors. Now I might be giving away the plot a little but I think its pretty safe to say that they collect things.
Combat involves you and two 2 other team members and sometimes pull off some pretty nifty tag team moves and combos. Drawing enemy fire and flanking them for an example. Visuals are a class above the rest and you definitely get that whole jump up and start dancing feeling when you defeat a difficult enemy or stage. You can check out some of the video reviews and previews on Youtube to get a better picture of what I'm talking about.
You have plenty of sub quests and various different endings that will make you want to come back to this game once you are done. Play the game as a badass, or a good guy or somewhere in between and you'll find that you will have different options as the game goes on.
ME's voice cast is epic with many famous celebrities lending their voice to spice things up. You'll be playing and go like "Hey why does this guy sound so familiar?". Well its probably because you have watched Battlestar Galactica, or The Matrix or Austin Powers (Yeah Baybeyy). Expect the likes of Martin Sheen, Shohreh Aghdashloo, Seth Green, Yvonne Strahovski, Adam Baldwin, Keith David, Michael Dorn, Tricia Helfer, Michael Hogan, Carrie-Anne Moss as well as some veteran voice actors.
Mass Effect 2 sold over 2 million copies in a week after it hit the shelves. My only advise is give your family and friends a heads up because once you start playing this game you wont know what day it is.
Go and get it already!
