    Who else just can't wait for ME2? I've probably seen all the trailers and all the interview for the second one. The more I see the more anxious I get. ME1 was among the top 5 games I've ever played for SURE. January 26th, please come faster!

    The combat system seems to be much improved. I'm really looking forward to this game as well. I wish I saved my "save game", though.

    Oh yeah! :D

    And I'm so glad you can edit your character. My guy is okay, it's just... his eyebrows make him look like a monster o_O

    The first time I played through ME, I was a saint. The second time I decided to be a jerk pretty much every time. My character punched people, insulted them for no reason at all, and was generally ruthless.

    I have both save files, so ME2 should be interesting. But yeah, I'm looking forward to the new cinematic feel that the game is supposed to bring.

    I'm playing the first one right now, and even though I only have 20 hours logged into it, I can't wait for the next one =)

    I can't wait to finish the first one! Gotta start over though. I played as a chic and she looked decent in the editor, but in game she looked like she had plastic surgery on everything.

    Gamespot.au has a feature on a new hirable character for the sequel, interesting for fans of the first game to have a look at.

    Here's the link.

    VERY excited, can't wait to continue on to the next part of the trilogy and find out what happens to Sheppard. Damn thinking about it again makes me want to replay it... so cinematic & epic.

    It's the new biotic powers! The new biotic powers look amazing. I wonder how the new tech powers will compare :eek:

    Hopefully the soldier class gets some boosts as well :D

    I hope they let us know exactly what transfers and what doesn't from the first game. I'm planning on building my uber character soon for transfer and want to know which decisions count or don't (yes I know the stats/etc... don't transfer, just want level 60 maxed out character for the heck of it).

    If you look here, it shows you what is transferred. I'm sure the list isn't near completion, but at least it gives you some guidance.

    Edit:
    Oh also, getting to level 60 does have some sort of impact on ME2! Maybe that will motivate you more :D
