looks like this will be the game of the year contender. love the first one. going to wait a few weeks before buying it, just to see some reviews first.

I have not played the first one yet, so probably not. I'd like to get around to trying the first one though, so I'll keep my eyes peeled for a deal on it.

I got it Saturday for 10 bucks at EA's store, if you aren't opposed to that sort of thing.

Not bad, I'll have to check it out when I get home. Can't access "game" sites from work anymore.

I'll be playing it, but will need to wait until the price goes down to feel comfortable with it. The Steam sale screwed me, not to mention a bunch of other purchases I couldn't resist...
Also the fact that I felt ME1 was a letdown. It was far too consolish for my tastes.

I enjoyed ME1 on the PC (got it for $20 on Steam about a year ago) and I have ME2 for PC pre-ordered. Went with Amazon thanks to the $10-$20 game rebate cards they hand out all the time when you pre-order stuff from them.

I pre-ordered even though I probably won't be playing it for a couple of weeks. I'm going to play through the original again first with all of the DLC that was released since I played it the first time. I'll feel like I got my money's worth out of ME2 if it is 20+ hours of gameplay with a good story and interesting enough to repeat in 6-12 months with another class.

I just started ME1 the other day for the first time--was getting somewhat sick of Witcher near the end (I think) of chapter 2--that game wreaks havoc on my hoarding tendencies...and just too many quests it seems, I keep getting bogged down and frustrated with OMG which option do I choose?? bah.
I'm loving ME1 so far, though. doesn't feel like hoarding will be an issue (though switching equipment across party members will be tedious I imagine, as will knowing exactly what to buy from merchant, or just wait to find shit), and the quests seem reasonable so far, and fun at least--not just run back and forth simply to talk to people. I only just left the citadel for the first time and took the buggy thingy out to...peak 15? on the snowy mining planet.
my only complaints so far:
--see myself doing a lot of backtracking to get the proper party member, return, open boxes I couldn't open before...blah!
--combat is pretty much me running in circles and shooting at shit. ...I haven't seen much reason not to do this, yet. I'm feeling less inclined to actually do anything with the squad beyond letting them do whatever the hell they want to do.
ME2 looks pretty good, but if it is more along the FPS type game then I might pass. Those aren't my thing.

screw me! I paid $20 at Steam (passed on X-mas sale...assuming ME was on sale then).
Thought I do like having my handful of installed games in one location now. much cleaner, and no complaints like I used to have when I first tried Steam.
Still backlogged on other games and barely started playing ME1.
WAS GREAT SEEING THE TRAILER DURING THE SUNDAY FOOTBALL GAMES. GREAT EXPOSURE! One of my family members was like when is this "Movie" coming out. I laughed and they were surprised it was a video game. They have a better understanding why people play video games!
my 2 cents
