What I have here for you are scans that matter. Scans from the Gamer Informer containing some brand new info about Mass Effect 2. It's an interesting read, but for the people that don't have the time, I'll cover the important infos here:
- In the beginning of the game, you'll lose your old crew and what has become of them is one of the game's mysteries.
- Only Joker and Dr. Chakwas remain a part of the crew.
- If the old Normandy was like the Millenium Falcon, the new Normandy SR 2 is like the Enterprise.
- Shepard has a big cabin with two aquariums (all kinds of fish can be bought in the course of the game), a trophy case (trophies and relics from the missions) and two computer terminals. First shows progress on achievements, second shows his standing with each teammate. The closet will allow (only) Shepard to customize his armor.
- The ship holds a science lab where Mordin, a Salarian scientist, analyses the mineral you collect from planets. These can also be used to upgrade weapons and armor.
- There's an uncharted planet mini game to scan for minerals.
- Mako will be 'heavily upgraded'
- The Normandy SR 2 has limited fuel, tanks will propably be upgradable.
- The galaxy is much larger than in the first game.
- Surveying the galaxy will not only bring side quests, but tie in the main plot.
- Enemies have different hit zones.
- Game Informer was overwhelmed by the sheer amount of content and they saw only a fraction of it. Also the game already looks polished.
Also noteable: According to IGN a new cinematic trailer will debut this weekend, sweet!
