The Return Of Mass Effect 3... This Time The 360 Version,

Good morning everyone,

Last night's stream of Mass Effect 3 was a lot of fun, as we took our time trying to find all the things in each area, while exploring all the dialog options. I found a really good check list for all the Space collectables which actually serve as a great way of doing stuff between the big story missions. 

Some thing that surprised me was that I did Javik / Eden Prime mission before picking up Garrus, and  learned that Javik cannot be selected for the first true 'Priority' mission of the game. Which makes sense, as that attention to detail to not have him as an option over James or Liara means the plot point of EDI transitioning into the body Eva Corre doesn't disrupt things.

Much like the Gears of Wars games, Mass Effect 3 for the 360 still looks absolutely gorgeous, as I took some pretty gorgeous screenshots during the stream when possible. Thankfully, unlike the Legendary Edition, the original version of Mass Effect 3 doesn't have a photo mode some I'm having to time things via cut scenes.

We're going to get back into doing a main game two nights a week on Mondays and Tuesdays, so you can guess what we're doing tonight in case you don't want see what's written at the end of this blog. 

Also during the stream, my Xbox Gamer score broke past 85,000... not bad for basically 2 and half years of gaming on Xbox consoles. Potentially, just based on mostly story achievements and things already in progress, I probably get 880 gamer score off of what's left in Mass Effect 3.

For the raid we dropped in on Kalenal who was playing Final Fantasy XIV over at twitch.tv/kalenal!

Got an email back from the FCC letting me know that Xfinity has been severed noticed of the issues I've had with intermittent connection issues with my internet service. For the record we had one interruption, but the Gateway didn't register it to get a reading on the Upstream Power Level

I have found myself listening to the Triple KO podcast... and while Maxamillion Dood is always cool to listen too, Justin Wong often sounds mixed about anything he discusses ... while Matt McMuscles... really is a terrible driver of conversation, as he completely comes across of wanting to get to particular talking points instead of letting a conversation flow naturally. 

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout featured Biceps Shape Focus Combo, Difficult Challenge Combo #1 and Intermediate Combo #1 for a duration of 34 minutes.

Why did Cinderella get kicked off of the soccer team? Because she kept running from the ball!

How many ears do space aliens have? Three: The left ear, right ear and the final front ear.
