If you made the switch from XBOX to PC for Mass Effect 2 then you likely don't have a save file to import. So here, use mine.. Here are the choices I made that might have an effect on the sequel:

• Level 50
• Completed all side quests
• Bangin Liara
• Punched the reporter
• Killed off Kaeden
• Did not kill Wrex
• Killed the council
• Chose Captain Anderson
• Full Paragon and 80% Renegade
• Looks way more awesome than stock Shepard

Simply take the file linked below and unzip it into your 'My Documents' folder, you will use the Mass Effect Configuration Tool to find the saved games folder, open up Mass Effect 2 and load the career. That's it!

Also be sure and check out the BFF Report review I did on Mass Effect 2!

Woooo! Man, past month has been insane. Vegas for the fam and New Years, came back for like 3 days then went back for CES with ZAM (check here for videos). Then I hit a brick wall of being fucking sick for an entire weekend but was still able to pump out coverage of Star Trek Online with a little help from Gizmo Duck! And now...

I got an advanced copy of MASS EFFECT 2

Unfortunately, BioWare sent me the XBOX360 version when we requested PC. "So what" you say? Well, currently I have no way of moving footage from the 360 to my PC, which means I have no real plausible way of making a review by Sunday night!! As you can see by the thumbnail, this won't stop me from racking up a few "first" achievements on XBL all weekend ;)

There is a tinge of hope though.. after receiving the incorrect version, I notified mix-master Micajah, PR guy extraordinaire for Zam.com, and he fired of a bunch of follow-ups to BioWare's PR team to have them express the correct format to me by today!

It's around 3PM right now and there is still a chance that they could've followed through with that request, otherwise....

Haven't worked on a non-human photo in quite a while. This is the Hoover Dam Bypass located, as you may have guess, at Hoover Dam in southern Nevada. I had to brace the camera on a concrete point because I didn't bring my tripod with me. So basically elevation is supported by the wall, but the tilt is supported by me doing some meditative breathing or some shit.

Anyways, this bridge is fucking epic in person and anyone who has ever tried going from Nevada to Arizona and NOT wanted to be bothered with the dam(n) traffic is looking forward to this thing being finished. There's a pretty good compilation of videos showing the bridge from several angles on teh youtubez.

Although it has been a short years worth of BFF Report episodes, I figured I would throw a bunch of outtakes into a single video to make an ass of myself for your viewing pleasure! I have big plans for this coming year in Still, Motion, and Audio and plenty of diet Rockstar to assist me in pulling it off.

Thanks to everyone who has supported me so far and let's make sure that 2010 just grazes 2009's sack, because we all know that hurts waayyy more than getting straight punted in the nuts. 

BIYM,

I installed a commenting system called 'DISQUS' that allows people to post natively from their facebook, twitter, openID, and other accounts. Someone throw a test comment at it.. or better.. someone try and get the video response thing to work!
