I have an '09 Infiniti G37 convertible. My iPod Touch 8G (1st gen) has worked perfectly with the built-in head unit via USB (well, their proprietary USB cable). My iPhone 3GS 32GB (iOS 3.1.x) was always kind of flaky, especially when scrolling through the list of songs / albums, it would constantly "lose" the connection and reset. I upgraded to iOS4 on the weekend, and now a couple of audiobooks that used to work, are not working now.
I'll have to do a more comprehensive test now after reading this!
I have a 12 year old that plays multiplayer (CoD, etc) and would love to play on XBL. I have 4 kids in total and it would be nice to have them setup to use XBL too, though I'm not sure yet if they need "Gold" level membership yet. In a few years though, I'm sure they'll all be asking.
I liked ME2, but I agree that the epic feel of the Citadel in the first game was basically gone. The side-quests were nice, but I always felt like the game hadn't really hit its stride, and then suddenly it was almost over. I guess this is a valid narrative technique - lots of "trilogies" in the book world have used this premise before, but I'd have like to have seen the main plot advance a bit more.
I can't remember which difficulty level I set the game at, but honestly it never really felt very challenging for me. I rarely died, and most of the time my teammates felt relatively useless unless I directed their powers. Ammo was always a problem though, so maybe I over-used my guns and didn't use my powers enough.
I can't make myself go through another playthrough - I'm dreading all the mining I'd have to do! :)
I agree. I hated the stupid mining game, it really took away from the immersion. I mean, they spend millions (billions?) resurrecting this kick ass hero, and equipping him with a super ship, support crew, etc, and then make him go mine his own minerals? I mean, I run a consulting business, and I don't even cut my own grass at home! :)
Also, I'm not sure about this comment about mining for an hour, I bought most of the upgrades (especially weapon upgrades and ability upgrades), and I had to mine for many, many, many hours to get enough minerals.
I mean, Cerberus is rich, why not just buy the minerals for me? :)
If they want some interactivity there, maybe have me manage mining teams that I can dispatch to planets, or a mining robot/probe or something...

Jun 15th 2010 5:12PM (Joystiq)Even better, we can download DLC to customize the ship, just like the Sims! ME Pets, ME Holiday, and more, coming to the Cerberus network soon!
;)
That and add racing stripes and more neon (and banging 24' (not inch) carbon fiber engine fans), and...! ME Underground!
