Someone said something about grabbing ME2 off of an FTP or Usenet or some shit, how do I do that? My torrent's down speed is going fucking crazy.

Just download the nzb file of the game. Got to nzbmatrix or merlinsportal to grab the nzb. But you'll also need to have an usenet provider.

I downloaded the PC version yesterday, just for fun. But it looks like shit on my PC. It took me less than two hours to download 15GB.

usenet provider? I'm gonna guess that costs money.

TRU has $10 gift card if you buy ME2

However, theres a misprint in the ad. They put ME2 where MW2 was, which is on sale for $45. So you could possibly take the ad and price-match at BB or Walmart, etc.

Damn!

"Demoing" the PC version now. Game is dope. Combat feels great. Looks really nice. Runs very well. I started playing and had to pull myself away so I don't end up ruining the experience when I play it on the 360. Even on the PC the combat feels a lot better so I can imagine how it will feel on the consoles. Doesn't so much feel like other shooters to me so much as more like an improved version of the Mass Effect 1 combat mixed with sped up Dead Space or something. Something about the way you move and the camera angle gives it the Dead Space feel although of course you aren't using the gun to chop off limbs like in Dead Space although there is a nice amount of location specific animation and damage.

It's painful. I hadn't planned to buy the game as I have it on my GameFly queue but who knows when they will send that. In the meantime I could be playing the game this weekend. Must resist temptation.

"Players will start with Disc 1 for the introduction and early level choices, then go through a funnel level of sorts, where they will need to switch to Disc 2," Houston said. "From there they will play the middle portion of the game, which is mostly on Disc 2. Then after another funnel point in the story they'll go back to Disc 1."

"The decision was made due to the nature of having to go to two discs for what is a non-linear game and fitting the right amount of content onto each of the discs," he added. "This way players won't have to swap their discs multiple times during the middle of the game."

The leaked version is being listed as region free for 360. Now I don't know if I want to wait for the Asian version from P-A.

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #627 on:** January 23, 2010, 10:41:44 AM »

You swap discs twice over the course of the entire game. That's it.

... Is there an option to install both disc on the HD and avoid that altogether?

ManaByte · « **Reply #628 on:** January 23, 2010, 10:46:41 AM »

I'd take swapping discs twice over playing it on the PS3.

Purple Filth · « **Reply #629 on:** January 23, 2010, 12:15:46 PM »

Interesting about the disk swaps.

I know where the first one is but i wonder when you switch again.

Spoiler aimed at Green man

whats interesting is Subject zero's name they refer to in the game, i wonder if thats her actual one. About ashley, its unfortunate she can't see the bigger picture even after some proof was shoved in her face, i guess that what happens when you hate a particular party so much.

Haven't seen those speeds since 2004

You should upgrade to usenet. Getting ~3mb/s download speeds all the time with my current usenet provider.

And is it just me, or is the loading pretty terrible in this game? I already died once and it took more than 15 seconds to quickload.

uTorrent. The tracker has to be fucked up. I regularly get 500kb/s.

Thankfully it's done now, but yeah. Recently quite a few of my torrents have been getting shafted. Am I capped? I don't even know how to tell, or how much my ISP allows me each month.
