Any of you guys getting Mass Effect 2 on January 26th

Dead Space is very good, and absolutely the scariest game that I've ever played.

It's great to play it at night in the dark with the surround sound up

^ Dead Space has a great underlying story (check out the prequel comics first), but the way it's executed in-game leaves much to be desired.

Still, it's a great sci-fi/horror experience.

Right on, bing!! I loved that comic with the Templesmith art. The anime video which was also a prequel was pretty good story-wise, though the animation was not of the best quality. I'm enough of a dork I bought the Wii mainly so I could play the Wii-exclusive Dead Space: Extraction which was actually a lot of fun too, though, obviously couldn't compete graphically with the other consoles or PC.

So of course I'm getting pumped for the sequel coming out this fall. Read it's supposed to have a multiplayer element.....not so sure how that'll turn out, but definitely looking forward to once again assuming the role of that poor schmuck, Isaac Clarke.

A little trivia that may contain a spoiler if you haven't completed the playthrough.......so you're warned....

If you take the first letter of each of the 12 chapter titles it spells "Nicole is dead" Don't remember where I read it, but thought it was pretty cool.

The one thing that drives me the most to play ME2 & DS2 is the notion of a higher species meddling with the affairs of humans (whether knowingly or not)... though the one in DS seems to be benevolent (suppression of the viral form).

Also, I can't wait for later this year too check out how the Xel'Naga epic progresses in Starcraft 2... to hell with my personal life, bring on the expansion set for Dragon Age and Bioshock 2.

4 more days, baby! (US import)... hate how Europe always falls behind.

If you need anything else to get you pumped for Mass Effect 2, just watch this.

This trailer is oscar worthy haha.

[bing!]

^ that trailer is so cheesy that it'd probably repulse me from the game if I didn't know better... anyone agree?

FFXIII is coming out till later this year right? But yeah I had to hold off on Dragon Age in order to afford ME2. But just as ME2 is about to come out I discover NBA2k10's My Player mode is a lot of fun.

FFXIII is coming out some time in March for us. Not sure about you guys though.
