Time to buy an XBOX360? - Page 227

I managed to rack up about 5-6hrs of Mass Effect yesterday which wasn't bad going. I'm really trying not to rush through it, it's a very fine balance

Oh and I love the casing for it

It is big but it looks like I actually spent money on it rather than other LEs that look a bit tacky.

Must. Not. Buy. Mass. Effect. Already. Have. Games. To. Be. Finished.

I've still got games to complete too

It was too good a game to miss out on immediately.

I love being a bad guy in Mass Effect. During the first 2 hours I punched out an annoying scientist, and threatened 2 smugglers at gun point to give up their weaponry so I could make better use of it. I love it

I'm being a goodytwoshoes

Second playthrough I'll be a bad guy though.

Died a few times which has made a change as I haven't played a half challenging RPG in a while.

I went for he 'Keep of the sand' achievement in HL2 last night... spent quite a while on it but never got it, gutted. I've kept a save back there so I can try again when I can be arsed

I was convinced I'd got it when I played through. Sadly it was not to be. I think I only have that achievement and the Lambda caches one left for the main game. Currently playing through Episode 1 again and trying to get the lone bullet achievement. A little tip for anyone going for it; don't just fire your one bullet off indiscriminately at the start, you'll need it.

Some 'new' X-Box games that are now backward compatible for anyone who's still got some X-Box games about.

Has anyone had Mass Effect hang on them while loading a new section?
There's one bit I'm trying to load and it hangs every time and just keeps saying loading even though it never finishes. Most annoyingly is it's doing it across 3 different save files and my last save before that is over an hour ago

I only reloaded the save because I was trying to be a perfectionist on one part too
