Bioware has already stated that Arrival and Shadow Broker were intended to be completed after the Suicide Mission, but the dialogue WILL change if it is done before. All of Overlord's dialogue is set up with the assumption that the Suicide Mission has NOT been completed, and some parts of the dialogue seem rather strange depending on what choices you make during the Suicide Mission. I gave the best example of it under the spoiler tag.

Fem Shepard is voiced by Jennifer Hale, who also voiced Cortana in the Halo series and Samus Aran in most of the Metroid Prime trilogy (if not all of it, I'm not entirely sure on the last game).

I enjoyed the voice acting in Dragon Age 2, particularly sarcastic Hawke (both male and female).

Play Overlord BEFORE you do the Suicide Mission, and Shadow Broker/Arrival AFTER the Suicide Mission. Arrival is intended as an epilogue for ME2, and although you can play Shadow Broker at any time (and the dialogue changes accordingly), it was intended to be completed after the Suicide Mission. Much of the dialogue in Overlord seems odd if you've already finished the Suicide Mission.

FYI, the Arrival DLC is actually out today. Also, for those of you who enjoy challenges, you have to do the entire DLC solo - you have absolutely no squadmates to help you.

He disappeared, of course. Hyuck hyuck.

0:59 - Xybots 1:01 - Hang On 1:04 - Wonder Boy 1:12 - Gauntlet (loved this game) 1:20 - Think it's NARC 1:41 - Thunder Fox 1:53 - Magician Lord 2:02 - Double Dragon

Spy takes simplicity and complicates it. The basic strategy is "Get behind them, stab, get out" but the complexity about it is trying not to get spychecked by pyros and trying to maintain your disguise as long as you could. If you suck as spy, you can always just stand around waiting for a heavy-medic team or some snipers. I used to be excellent with spy until I crafted "Your Eternal Reward". That thing just spoiled me and made me rush in. Since then, I lost the patience and was only getting worse. To add to this, Spy and Engineer are the only two classes in which your job gets progressively more difficult to perform as the other team improves in skill. Bad team = easy job for spies/engis, good team = hard job.

Likely going to attend a midnight release tomorrow. I snagged a Signature Edition back when you could preorder the normal version and upgrade to Signature for free, so I've got quite the package waiting for me.

It's better than a lot of what he normally puts out. I think the only webcomics that consistently make me laugh are Axe Cop, Dr.McNinja, XKCD, and Saturday Morning Breakfast Cartoons.

Ctrl+Alt+Del ACTUALLY managed to put up a funny comic today.

Eh, I wish the DAO DLC was at least as interesting as the ME2 DLC. I completed DAO once, never touched it or the DLC. Completed ME2 multiple times, bought every piece of DLC except the alternate appearance packs. I dunno, there was just something about the DAO DLC that made me completely uninterested.

And the Source Engine in Half-Life 2 Episode 2 was different than what was in Half-Life 2 and Half-Life 2 Episode 1 (way too many numerals in that sentence).

Whoah - I didn't know it killed Bethany instead of Carver if you were a Mage. That's kind of interesting. Hrmm. Yep. If you're a Warrior or Rogue, Carver will ALWAYS die. If you're a Mage, Bethany will ALWAYS die. You simply can't avoid it.

The only mod that I've ever actually used extensively has been SMOD for Half-Life 2. Made the game so damn goofy and fun. I've used a talent respecialization addon for Dragon Age: Origins as well.

You'll be able to swap weapons. I mean shit, one of Bethany's talents she can pick up is Arcane Weapons, which changes effects based on what kind of staff she has. Kinda pointless if you couldn't swap her weapons around, eh?

Because I'm incredibly lame (and also felt like it), I recorded my entire Rogue playthrough and I'll be posting it to youtube. No commentary at all, but things included: -Melee and Ranged Rogue combat -A look at menus and the general UI -Full Aggressive/Intimidate dialogue options as Male Hawke Gotta split it up into four parts, due to the file size.

You'll still be able to control that, but the Inventory system is completely locked in the demo.

The ads are ridiculous, yes - especially when a single ad can completely block the top article. Half the article links don't even work properly for me, unless I refresh the page repeatedly. The whole thing is a mess.

Last I saw, the code he had used to jailbreak the PS3 didn't even allow for any actual piracy - it simply "re-enabled" the OtherOS option, so to speak. I don't even get why they would even remove that feature. It was fairly popular among users, and I know a few universities even used them because of the OtherOS capability.
