My copy of mass effect 2 came though the door this morning, however, since I only got mass effect 1 last weekend and I haven't finished it yet ME2 is still sitting quietly on my shelf, I'm current at the citadel attack however since I've not even touched disk 2 yet I'm completely unsure as to how far though the game I really am.

Mass Effect only has one disc... so... not sure what you mean there.

And the Citadel attack is the end. It can take 10 hours or 50 hours to reach, depending on how many side quests you do.

21 Hours ish to complete, I worked out what the second disk must be for, I'm from the UK so the version I have is the EU version, disk two must contain multi-region data. ME2 has 2 disks as well.

Bad - Almost done with ME.

Good- Almost ready to play ME2.


Mass Effect's main story is relatively short for the genre IMO.

True, but its a damn sight longer then both CoD Modern Warfare's. And it has plenty of side missions to do as well.

ME2 is 2 discs in the US as well, though judging by the installer one of them doesn't have much on it.

The ones on the Citadel were OK but I found exploring planets with the Mako to be amazingly dull and tedious.

Mass Effect only has one disc... so... not sure what you mean there.

In fact, Mass Effect International Version has two discs. The second disc only holds additional languages besides english.
I wondered exactly the same question a few weeks ago. I installed it in english, never asked the second disc
My girlfriend recently installed it in french, and it needed the second DVD through the initial install procedure ...

Besides just insert it & have a look at the files in there, it's pretty self-explanatory..

French does sound a bit weird by the way with Nihlus voice not being transformed from a normal human voice for example and generally things going a bit too far in the full translation mode (C-Sec renamed for example to SSC or something along this line ... :doh )


edit: bah.. just saw that the question was already answered a few post ago :hide
