Mass 1 is kind of quirky like that. I found the best thing to do is save before you do anything, it will save you some frustration. DO NOT TRUST THE AUTOSAVE. Also it is totally worth putting you skill points toward your charm & intimidate stats over some of the other stuff first. But it really is a good game although it does have some issues.  Mass 2 makes some huge improvements in just about everything and is probably my favorite of the 3. The classes are more well rounded, weapons and armor are way easier to manage. And combat is much tighter. I like them enough to play through the whole trilogy one right after theothe over the period of 2 months. Looking foward to playing again with a different class and try some different plot choices.

I think I would really enjoy GOT, but it has yet to appear on my Netflix, I don't have cable.

I'm enjoying the game so far. Yeah, I'm making sure to keep my Charm maxxed out. I learned my lesson on that with Dragon Age Origins. I lost over an hours worth of progress on ME the other day due to not saving before the vehicle segmentas well. I just don't get why there are so many dang elevators. It gets annoying. Also, I don't think you can get GoT on Netflix. I think that HBO won't release the rights. They have a deal on Comcast Xfinity to feature it, so the only other way is to just buy the DVD's/ Blu Ray. That's probably the show is so pirated. heh

Anyway thats a bummer about Game of Thrones, its still a long shot but I'll have to check the Redbox for them.

I have only played through the ME 1 and ME 2. The combat in the first one seemed really stiff to me and it took me along time to actually get interested and invested in the game. The autosave system in the game sucks, I lost hours because of it so I feel your pain. The second game is a lot better. Combat is more fluid and enjoyable. And from what I remember they got rid of the vehicle segments as well. 

I have the first season of Game of Thrones and I just haven't gotten to it yet. From what I have heard, its really good.

Season 1 of GoT was really great. The second one was good, but lacked the tight narrative of the first. It's definitely a good show.

Excellent, after being disappointed in the most recent season of Walking Dead. I am looking for a show with a strong narrative. I didn't mind the first two seasons of the walking dead. But the strong narrative structure and character development was lacking in the third season.

Mr. Setzer, I'd be the last person to give anyone advice on women. It took me well over 20 "relationships" before I met my wife some of which I freely admit I fucked up. Trust me I don't get it either but I'm not sure we're meant to. LOL

It's alright. Even though I really liked that one, I didn't feel that we were a really good match, anyway. I don't have the heart to be mean when she was honest with me. It's just that I'm tired of FB. Nobody even talked to me on there anymore except for her. I guess it hurt a little more than I thought. At least I'm not up to 20 women yet. lol

Luckily the vehicle section are absent from ME 2. Matter of fact, I enjoyed ME 2 a lot more though RPG purist will argue it was streamlined and stripped down in a lot of ways. (They are right but for me the better combat and better narrative between characters really rubbed off favorably onto me!)

I forgot I had a Facebook account for the 1up group. Guess I'll check that thing. lol

I've missed commenting a couple blogs here too, but sometimes, I just have nothing much to say. If I see a blog that's really well-written with zero comments, I usually try to comment to at least let someone know I appreciated it, but when there's a blog with a bunch of stuff I can't really touch on that has comments already, I just feel it's best left alone by me, really.

But I can relate to your when things go well, they break off. That happened in my first relationship last year; and just in general, what the fuck is up with the ones you want usually not wanting you, and vice versa? Frustrating. It'll all work out though. I gotta focus on getting a steady job, anyway.

I've spent so much time at work the past week and a half, I missed a lot of blogs and am doing my catch up today. As far as ME goes, as our friends across the pond might say, Keep Calm and Carry On.

I didn't like the vehicle segments in Mass Effect 1 either. They were pretty tough I remember. Mass Effect 1 is the only ME game that I didn't complete, but I plan to. ME 2 and 3 are much improved and ME 2 is one the best games this gen IMO.
