(For some reason, I got confused and thought the planet for Kahoku's mission was the one for Liara's mission, so I thought it was required to beat that thresher maw. Joy and relief when I found out it wasn't, but I can beat them now.)

Lol, I JUST fought that very same thresher maw with my Thane!Shep

The first time I tried to fight a thresher maw, I thought you were supposed to keep driving around all the time. And since on my first playthrough, my aim was about a good as a drunken monkey's, I just couldn't hit the damn thing. Eventually, it went underground and surfaced RIGHT underneath me. Critical mission failure. But then I figured out the skipping rope method, so my opinion on the thresher went from "ogod what is this, I don't even" to "pffft!"

My "Bioware is awesome" opinion started with ME1. Then I bought ME2, DA:O, Jade Empire and now KOTOR. Just need to make my way through them all now.

That BioWare's games can engender this kind of freakoutery is actually a good sign--it means they've engaged the fans enough that their emotions are involved.  The downside of said engagement is that sometimes people who can't appropriately channel their, uh, passionate feelings, come out of the woodwork.

While in this specific case I agree with you entirely, it's worth mentioning that this is the internet. I've seen an all-caps, three-page, vilest-names-each-participant-knows screaming match about salad dressing.

Ranch is clearly superior.

HONEY MUSTARD ALL THE WAY U JERK

I love the internet.

Death to the INFIDEL!



LMAO

I actually dislike all forms of dressing.  I usually only use oil & vinegar.  So me arguing like this is funny.

I didn't really follow games that closely when Baldur's Gate and KOTOR came out, and didn't read game magazines at the time either, so I never heard of them until after Mass Effect. Now that I know about them, I'll try to find used copies of the Xbox games, but probably not the ones for PC. PC games would probably be harder to find, and harder for me to play. Finding both KOTORs and Jade Empire would be great though.

Now I wonder - what kind of games do you guys think Garrus would play, if any at all? (Or if our Shepards make him play them.) What about other turians? I remember hearing about a turian game... "Galaxy of Fantasy", was it?

@Nilfalasiel: That sounds like my first thresher maw attempt. xD The first one I managed to beat was with a Sentinel who could use Stasis and still cause damage, which made it possible. Then I got some advice on the last Garrus thread to use Warp on them. Thresher maw fights went from "Run, run, run, shoot!" to "What... I beat it already?" to MaleShep's crazy Warp + Adrenaline Rush + shotgun "Bring it on!"

I can see Garrus playing shooter games but being really, REALLY picky about the controls.



And a secret, guilty obsession with Farmville. I can see that, too.

I'm going to the beach for a week, starting Friday, and I'm planning to do that, too (not catch up when I return). I'm going to miss this place, but the above picture gives me hope of running into Garrus on the beach.

That sounds glorious! If you run into Garrus on the beach, you must promise to *take pictures*- do you so solemnly swear in Garrus' name, for the love of Clan V, Cookies amd Cupcakes?

I swear, or may Grunt put me in a half-nelson.

I usually keep driving with the maws too. I park my mako parallel to it, then it's like drive, shoot, then reverse, shoot, then forward, shoot, reverse, shoot. that way i never get hit lol.

Ranch dressing FTW haha but I have a weakness for honey mustard as well....

Garrus and Farmville? too hilarious.....

Facebook:

Garrus Vakarian found a lonely lost varren on his farm, would anyone adopt it? it comes with full body armor and produces meat! harvest time, once a day *rofl*

Hah, I just imagined something silly inspired by the current state of the DA2 boards. Do you think there are some old asari matriarch gamers who got all pissy because game controllers had to be modified to accomodate all these three-fingered wipper snapper newcomers and thereby limiting their choices and the complexity of their games?

Asari don't use game controllers....they just melt their minds with the game console

Fixed.

The real cause of Xbox360 RROD.

(By the way, the word is "meld". Melt = liquefy )

thanks lol....oh well, I think, with some help from the Collectors and the Reapers, the Asari can even melt their minds with the game consoles :lol::lol:

I think Garrus would like shooters and strategy games too, and Mass Effect. xD Just imagine Garrus romancing himself with a FemShep. Just imagine him trying to fight off the other romances - it'll give him a whole new perspective of why Shepard keeps trying to hang out around him while he's fixing the Mako or doing calibratons.

MainShep would also like shooters, and those games with destructable environments. She'd have a huge collection of turian-made games too. Biggest difference between me and MainShep with RPGs - she's the type to put herself in the game.

Only until he had them properly Calibrated. That may take forever a while though.

Oh gosh, Garrus with one of those shooters that lets you fiddle with controller sensitivity and map stuff onto buttons and invert analog stick directions and whatnot.  Dear god, he'd never make it off the options screen.

This.

Also, now presenting:

Asteroid X57. Its fusion torches. Its underground facilities.
Local fauna: scientists. Lots of batarians.

And the legendary Flying Garrus.



Wrex is uninmpressed.

I bet Garrus likes highly customizable shooters because of his obsession with rifles and calibrating (getting things just right).

Halo 3 would be pretty up his alley.

On another note, are you basically saying that Keener's voice oozes sexiness and he can't even help it? Cause that's a theory I could buy. LOL

That's no theory.  That's a scientific fact.

That is indeed.  Fact.

Also, I think my BW is awesome op started when I was playing DAO.  I was like, hey, this game has a fun story and romance!  Done well! OMG THESE GUYS DID MASS EFFECT I REMEMBER THAT GAME!

/ME2 comes out... an obsession was born.

Either way, Garrus should change depending on how you mentored him. Although, technically the "renegading" are mostly just Shepard just agreeing with him. At least that's how I played my Shepard.

I'm replaying ME1 for the sole purpose of importing a non-romanced Shepard into ME2 so she can romance Garrus, so I'm super-conscious of everything I'm saying to him right now.  I'm aware that if I'm not careful I could veer into "just say everything he wants to hear" territory, which is somewhere I don't want to go.  I don't just want to suck up to him the whole time or anything like that.  Still, this Shepard is pretty like-minded on most matters--after all, this is her best friend we're talking about.  Of course, best friends aren't exactly alike on everything.  It's fun trying to figure out how to handle everything.  I hope I don't screw it up real good.

Hi,

I created a thread recently "In Praise of the Modest Garrus Headbump Love Scene", and it was suggested that it would be of interest to fellow Garrus fans.  Hope you all enjoy this paean to Garrus Awesomeness, whether or not you agree with my views.

As you can tell from the title, I was personally glad to be able to complete my OTP romance without having a sex scene or irrefutable proof that sex did occur.  I wanted to leave it open.  Of course, I'm aware that some of us fangirls/boys would actually have preferred a sex scene after all, and I respect that.  I just want there to be more options in games to continue romances without necessarily having sex at distinct times and in distinct ways.

Don't worry, if you screw it up for ME3, you can always replay the whole dang thing from ME1 to ME3 just to get it perfect.  <.<
