You can only have that "sexy time" on your way to Ilos. You can't send her to her death after that because the only thing after Ilos is Saren.

You can make a sexy time with Ashley, Kaiden, or Liara. If you are a male, it's Ashley or Liara. If you are female, it's Kaiden or Liara. That's right, you can make a lesbian time on the game.

So I can't have gay sex with Kaiden? Wow, I am definitely never playing this game again.

Ok, i have a question about one of the achievement's on this game, and me and my friend had a pretty decent debate about it but i think i'm right, but i want to hear what you guys think.

One of the achievement's on this game is to complete the game on the hardcore difficulty without changing the setting's anytime. Both me and my friend have beaten the game on the normal difficulty, and now were both playing the game on the hardcore.

He started on his pre-exsisting profile, and before he got into any "action" he changed his difficulty from normal to hardcore. I created a new character and even before starting anything on the actual game I set it to the hardcore difficulty.

He argue's that he will still accomplish the achievement because he changed his setting's before getting into any "action". But my thought's were, technically when he started the game it registerd on the normal difficulty and when he changed it to hardcore the game knew he didn't start there, therefor, he will not do the achievement.

Any thought's or anyone know the actul answer? I have been looking on the net now for like 15 mins. but i got stuff i gotta go do. Any thought's or what not would be appreciated.

Yeah, I doubt he'll get the achievement. Sucks for him. It plainly says you can't switch it mid-game.

That's what i was trying to tell him. All i know is that it sucks going from a level 40 solider all the way back to now a level 8.

+1 FTW!

I agree with you 100%... and for the record, this game is like a thousand times more fun to play it as <Scarface voice> "da bad guy".

Effin sweet! Would have been nice if it had been sooner, but I will take DLC whenever I can get it...

A few more details on the DLC topic.

Eh I don't know if I really feel like playing Mass Effect anymore. The addition is a good idea, though. It should be fun playing after the game is over considering your player's new status.

Not to mention, you're supposed to be able to use "your" Commander Shepard in all three of the ME games that should hit before the 360's lifespan runs its course.

Personally, I think the 10th can't come soon enough... I should have nothing else planned on that day... looks like my 360 will be in for quite a workout!

This is simply one of those games that I could never stop liking.
