Just found a little drawing of Miranda here. Closer to the trailer version than the in-game one, but actually quite good.

@Mavi: Holy crap! Those are amazing! How did you get her face so... Yvonne-y?

My only criticism is she looks a little too tan in the top pic, and her eye color seems a little off.


Mine would be her gun doesn't look like a Mass Effect gun it looks like a Chuck gun...

But still a brunette Sarah Walker is not a bad thing. Posted Image

Ok a little half way through 2nd season on my Chuck catch up.  I shall be as ready as I can be come March 1.  I got my wife into it and had to come out of the closet on my Yvonne crush Posted Image

Well, considering you have a wife, when you told her you were 'coming out of the closet' she was probably relieved when you admitted to your Yvonne crush, hehe.

Just regards to the Sarah-Chuck thing, I am actually pretty cool with them not able to get together after the first couple episodes when they just couldn't speak their feelings. Now Chuck mans up and actually tells Sarah what is on his mind which makes it ok for me. I understand why they cannot get together and at least it makes sense. I mean in other situations like that, the ones that make me homcidal with rage, usually happen just because the characters are cowardly and/or neurotic. At least I can see why any normal person would tortured in the obviously stressful world of international espionage.

Well it went sort of like this:

*scene of Chuck gazing adoringly at Sarah*

Me: "I love you Sarah" *imitating Chuck's voice*

Her: "Is that Chuck saying that...or you?"

Me: "Erm...well you see..."

Well you said you were into season 2 right? It wasn't as frustrating at that point I don't think, but it is now. Still a top show though. Posted Image

EDIT: Lol, at your transcript. I'm sure you aren't the first man to make that mistake.

That is what I understand.  It will be interesting to see what happens to change things.

The show has to run a difficult balance here.  Getting Chuck and Sarah together for real will be difficult balance...they cannot do it too soon or too late or it will ruin the central dramatic machine of the show.

Somehow no matter how absurd the show is, and how implausible and ridiculous the other characters and the  entire premise of the show is...somehow when that relationship works the rest of the ridiculousness seems to work.

By the way that MI6 agent midway through season 2 was about as badass a fictional spy as you could find.  Britain should be proud if their real intelligence officers even remotely resemble that guy Posted Image

Shinobi is right by the way, Chuck and Sarah will definitely be together by the end of the series. If not, I'll do something...drastic.

Andy no!  Don't do it!  No no, don't reach for the pen and paper!  Oh dear god no, he's going to...write a letter! :o

If anyone doesn't get that it's a joke from Rich Hall about what the British do when they finally snap.  He said Americans grab a gun and shoot somebody, the British write a letter... ^_^


And good afternoon everyone.  How are we all?

That is the communicator she grabs off the dead Merc in the elevator on her loyalty mission...the scene with the sexy high heels.

One thing I will say for the show is that even though it gets a bit frustrating not having Chuck & Sarah be together, the show on a whole is still very entertaining. I mean, I don't watch the show just to see Chuck & Sarah's relationship develop, but to see some good action/comedy and it still delivers on that. Adam Baldwin gets funnier by the episode, I swear!

And then there's Yvonne of course, but I won't talk about her anymore than I have in the past. I think people already know my opinion of her. At the same time I also didn't start watching the show to look at Yvonne...she does help keep me interested now, though.

As for the Chuck/Sarah relationship, I started off really wanting them to get together, which was strange because I'm somebody who's usually like 'oh, stop the sappy stuff!' I guess it's just my super Yvonne crush and that Chuck is pretty relatable that makes me care more. This season something has happened that has just made me really frustrated with their relationship, but hopefully things will improve in the coming weeks.

Besides, we know they'll be together in the end.

(Wow, I seemed to go on for a long time...sorry if none of the above makes sense.)

I still can't believe how detailed Miranda's skin is, especially in these hi-res shots. Stunning.

Adam Baldwin is both awesome and hilarious.  I love his character and I love his relationship with Sarah and Chuck as well I agree with that.  I hope he will do more VO work after ME2...he seemed to know alot about the world and what it was about on the Stars of Mass Effect 2 movie thing.

I am just saying the entire premise of the show is beyond ridiculous.  But somehow when the Sarah/Chuck relationship is...feasible?  Relatable?  Somehow you just accept it, and your suspension of disbelief is never really broken.  But maybe I just speak for yourself.  Seeing how their relationship develops or doesn't keeps you interested in and believing in the hilariously over the top plots and you find yourself either hoping they break up  and find other people or finally make it work depending on how the chemistry between the characters if working.  Anyway just my thought.  There are alot of great things about the show but that is the engine that keeps it running.  No matter how much you like Casey and Ellie and Morgan et al. that is what makes the show compelling.

But that is not at all to say the rest of the show is not good....or even not fantastic.

Argh. Did you know I've always disliked high heels? Here it looks sexy just because I know it's Miranda, even though I can't see that it's she. Go figure.

If this goes on, I'll never see the other romances of ME2....

....but I just discovered I don't really mind. I have a harder time accepting that there isn't an LI character in both ME games fitting any of my femSheps.

I am a total sucker for them.  Especially high heeled boots like those...they are an art form.Posted Image

I mean even though I know intellectually it is totally ridiculous for Miranda and Samara to wear them, I keep finding myself thinking 'wow what a goddess'.  But anyway...
