This week's game is Mass Effect for the Xbox360. Mass Effect, if you do not now is a space based RPG played in the 3rd person. you get to control your own ship and visit various different planets, thats really all I can say at the moment as I'm not too far into it. Its not the type of RPG where fighting is taken in turns, there's guns and you have to use the right trigger to shoot
Well I was told to look on Artemis Tau, so that's exactly what I did, except Artemis Tau isn't all that small. So I was looking for ages and found all these barren planets which yielded nothing until I came across this one that had buildings for the picture, Therum, I thought it would be best to pick that one.
The planet was like a continuous "S" shape up until a mine entrance which was good news because I was looking for an archaeologist. First question I asked myself when I landed on the planet was "hmmm.. I wonder what happens when I drive on the lava" by the way don't drive on the lava, instant mission failure. You get the "Critical Mission Failure" pop up.
Another note it's a good idea to save as often as possible. The enemies are strong and will kill you fairly fast when you're not in cover. and even when your in cover the strong attacks can really pack a punch, I mean really if you win a fight save the game, and if you think that a fight is about to come up save the game so you don't have to do as much work.
There was this boss type battle before I entered the mine which was really annoying because the boss type monster (I forgot to take its name) killed me the first time (in one shot). and at the start of the battle there was like a few snipers which were taken care of quickly by my teammates.
I went down the mine shaft and had to go down an elevator... Elevators in Mass Effect = slow = boring. Killed off a few more enemies down into another elevator and found a girl called Liara trapped in between a barrier. Had to turn off my Xbox at this point but I'll be playing it again tomorrow and posting my progress.
The game is supposed to get better as it goes on and it's not too bad right now.. We'll see
