Couldn't find a topic about it, lock this if there is.
Amazing game, graphics are pure class (although often I noticed took awhile to load).
Gameplay was probably the most important part about the game, you want to actually fight people in this RPG. Rather than the JRPGs where every fight is avoided like the plague because of boredom and unwillingness to kill a pointless squirrel monster which will give you fuck all xp.
I found myself actively doing the side missions without much teenage angst towards the person asking me to do something.
The level of depth in this game is immense too, deciding every single sentence your character says is a pretty good feature (if not a little drawn out a certain stages).
T'is mighty.

So I got it yesterday
Currently looking for Liara, I think I've got the right damn planet this time but there's fucking Geth everywhere, Ashley keeps running out in front of the tripod thing and getting fucked up, Wrex as usual has to clean up her mess, but then he usually dies trying, and I get fucked in the ass shortly after.
Goddamn Geth.
Also, Graphics are good, but not as good as Gears of War or UT3, and those are both on the same engine, BioWare dropped the ball slightly.

Any pop up like on the 360 version?
Also I fucking hate Ashley, Wrex and Garrus all the way. Although Garrus died so easily as well but I'd be damned if I was to use Kaidan or w/e his name is.

Alot of people hate Ashley, mainly because of her attitude. Me personally I like Liara... For some odd reason....

The name of the planet is Therum or however you spell it. Theres Lava everywere. I think you have the right planet though.

Yup, there's popping when I load a level, not usually when I'm moving, it shifts into the ram pretty quick, but I have noticed it on occasion.
And yeah, I'm on the right planet.

Okay, make Gears as expansive as Mass Effect and see if it's the same level of visual detail.

Fix the limitation of the most powerful console, to actually mirror performance of top PCs.
Fixed.

What's wrong with the PC port?

Environment popping/streaming
Overheat bug (fuck my gay ass)
Poor FPS
Somewhat less impressive looking than 360 version, graphics have gone tits up
One of the first SecuROM cancers.

The epitome of fun is to drive a car on a world full of lava and rock ledges for safety.
And all textures are black.

I feel obliged to make a new character in ME1 now, because starting one in ME2 seems a little gay :/
With that said I absolutely agree with the worst port part, shits pretty awful. In some ways ME2 seems even more like a console game than a pc game to me, but at least it looks tight.

The game looked like shit and performed like shit on my Nvidia and ATI cards. Of course popping is prevelant on 360 for good reason: why is it on the PC?
I had to play with motion blur on to get rid of ugly.
