I've been playing Mass Effect 2 for about a week now. First things first - it's great. The dialog, the action, the story. It's all excellent. It's well worth playing the first one, well, first. There are lots of cool little call backs to stuff you did in the first game. I've not hit a false note yet, and the tone is very much "Empire Strikes

Also! What does your Shepard look like? It seems like it's possible to make either really hot, or SUPER FRIGHTENING characters.

My Shepard is a nice looking blonde lady. She's a paragon, of course. I'm rarely if ever a mean character, when given the choice, in games. I just can't do it.

Are you playing? What does your Shepard look like?

I'm not playing it, but Emily sure is, and hers is a handsome black commander Shepard with a roman nose. She's going down the jerk path though, and intimidating and manipulating her way to a better tomorrow.

I've been really pleased with the choice system so far. The nice guy choices have been pretty even handed and have not seemed totally out of line with the amount of arse kicking I've been doing.
