Mass Effect

redfive

in a week where i a have been the centre of a work romance rumour (untrue) and been handed a project that really should have been started months ago, one of my friends made the whole thing worse by lending me Mass effect to try before i buy.


i love this game, love it, i got home from work last night, stuck it in the xbox and resurfaced at about 11.30pm when i remembered to eat something before bedtime.


BUT


this game could not have arrived at a worse time.


last night i needed to set up spreadsheets, decide what needed to go where and have it ready for perusal by management first thing this morning. imagine their surprise when i had to tell them i had an issue with my laptop and would have it done by lunchtime, this project, which is to integrate the policies and procedures of four large departments onto one easy access database, needs to be done and dusted by 1st of april...which is just about impossible, unless you have a corner office and spend your days in meetings, in which case it seems the phrase "we have every confidence you can get this done, on time and in full" will actually make it happen. slapdash it will be then eh?


on a brighter note i now know that someone at work thinks i'm a hottie.


 


EDIT: it turns out the lady in question doesnt work with me, and is a friend of a friend kinda thing....but she does have a face like a smacked arse.

If you're a shooter gamer, go with the soldier class. It'll be the most familiar roll for you to play and you won't have to worry about managing powers and what not. Just worry about guns and armor like you're already used to.\r \r \r \r

ya: Infiltrator is a soldier/engineer hybrid... so it's closer to what you would like but with a few goodies. the other hybrid is... sentinel?? Anyway: it's an adept/soldier hybrid. All shotguns and up close battling!\r

3rd time through now. 1st good boy, 2nd bad girl, 3rd don't care, I do what I feel like this time, going for more achievements and upped the difficulty, Who can I fall in love with this time?

Mass Effect was awesome. It'll take about 36 hours for a full play-through doing all the side missions and what not. It's about 15 hours or so for a focused story arch only play through. But if you're an achievement hunter and want them all, it's a good 100 hours. You'll need to do around 3 full play throughs and one story arch only play through or so to get all 1k.

Just because you have a project due at work does not relieve you of your Bad Company commitments. LOL. Good luck with your project.
