Did you get it started as soon as the demo went up in the search engine? If you can get it then the download usually goes fast. That's when I got mine and it's currently installing.

Same with LBP2, as well.

Anyone start it up yet? What part of the game is the demo?

 

[mysticwhip]

44%...

 

[Zen]

LBP2 gets priority in the queue for me, but I can't wait to try this out on the PS3.

 

[Lothars]

Doesn't ME2 suck? From fan reactions to how Bioware has been behaving lately, I'd rather enter the series at the first game. :/

The concept of the series itself is something that I think I could really get into though.

Not at all, It should have more RPG elements but I would put it on par with Mass Effect 1 which is a great game but I would recommend everyone to play it.

It's the opening Sequence of the game. The Lazarus Research Station.

Neat... thanks. Starting it up right now.

 

[EatChildren]

It speaks volumes that they culled the hacking and decrypting minigames out of the main missions for this release. I guess ME3 is going to be as streamlined as possible.

 

[Dead Prince]

Cox.

it's the install that always take longer than the download :lol

Installing 10% super slow..

Hopefully it will be good enough to double dip.

Uh, what's there in place of them? Nothing? :lol

 

[Ratrat]

12%!

 

[EatChildren]

Nothing, apparently. They minigames are still there, but mostly removed from main missions to 'keep the intensity' or some shit, and instead will only be found in areas where you can find them at your own pace.

 

[shwimpy]

Port looks to be good enough... the game looks and runs great (to me anyway ). Well done Bioware.

 

[BattleMonkey]

I would assume they are just removed for the demo, as there is no point in them since it's just a demo and the rewards are designed for long term play.

 

[Tom Penny]

This game is full price right? Not sure I can justify that after playing the PC version. I'll check the demo out though.

PS3 is for ass men. 360 for boob men. :lol :lol

PC demo had hacking minigames.

Say what?

 

[anddo0]

So far so good, the demo is basically the start if the game. The only thing that seems off is the lip sync. Game is running buttery smooth, for now.

 

[Dead Prince]

outside of the intital sluggish performance in the beginning and some screen tearing. the game actually is a really good port.

 

[CrushDance]

Tearing? Please no.

 

[anddo0]

It looks and runs better than my crap laptop. So I ain't complaining. :lol

 

[AlStrong]

They're in the spoiler mission. Don't know what he's talking about. The intro mission does have fewer though.

The ME3 engine is more politically correct than the ME2 engine.

 

[Truespeed]

It's running on the ME3 engine and with all the additional content it may very well be the definitive version according to my general calculations.

 

[X-Frame]

Screen tearing? Uhhh ...

 

[EatChildren]

Nothing running in 720p can be the definitive version of anything.

 

[belvedere]

The in-engine cinematics were a mess, lots of tearing and really choppy but the actual gameplay was pretty smooth with minimal tearing.

The character models seem more defined for sure.

 

[jonnybryce]

I hate all of you. I have to be considerate and download overnight when no one else is using the internet since PS3 downloads bring the network to a halt.

Tearing? :/

 

[belvedere]

To clarify, the opening cinematics/videos were choppy, not the in-engine scenes while playing the game.

Maybe it has something to do with the demo compression?

Definitely impressed with the PS3 version, even after playing the holier than thou PC version.

 

[SolidSnakex]

I enjoyed the demo but I ran across a big audio glitch. It caused all enemy noises to drop out with the exception of their rockets. It happened about halfway through the demo and caused it to be a lot more difficult because they could sneak up on me easily since I couldn't hear them. The sound of the door also dropped out.

 

[TacticalFox88]

No screen tearing whatsoever on my end. Very stable framerate. Even though I bought ME2 on 360, I'm definitely buying this. Amazing port. I'm hooked, and January can't come soon enough!

 

[Cels]

BOOBS got smaller.

wtf? boobs smaller? is this some sort of joke?

 

[Square Triangle]

Wtf who is pulling on the rope at Comcast? This is taking fucking forever.

 

[Killthee]

Game looks fantastic! Definitely double dipping as soon as it hits the bargain bin.

 

[Felix Lighter]

I'll try to remember to download this tomorrow. I'm curious how it turned out.

Good to hear, wish i could play the demo but it is still downloading.

checked the GOTY thread any time since voting started?

Great to see the Mass Effect 2 demo! Was always wanting to try that series.


Eduardo Vasconcellos | December 21st, 2010 at 5:01 pm

Dude, you’re in for such a treat!ME 2 is one of my faves of the year,and rest assured, the demo is just the tip of the iceberg. I’ve definitely got this pre-ordered already. What about you?

:lol
