So doesn't look like Origin has a similar feature. Pitty :(

A quick bit of Googling on this and it seems the options are Fraps or XFire. Fraps (trial version) seems to be the recommendation most lean towards.

Hope that helps.

Commander Shepard - Male: How about a dip in the pool?
Garrus Vakarian: You obviously haven't seen turians swim. It's a lot of flailing and splashing interrupted by occasional bouts of drowning.

So I made a guy character now to mess around and test out a few of the ME2 romances (and possibly as an alt ME3 game).

So far I must express sadness at the lack of realism in the male character storyline. Every time Miranda talks, I'm looking her dead in the face. :crazy:

Also: I was mildly disappointed that in ME3, you can't run into the opposite gender bathrooms anymore. Doing so just to hear EDI scold me was one the few things that added joy to having to run around the ship to do dialogue ;p

Now, that's not entirely true with Miranda. I remember quite a few conversations where the camera view went from looking her alllll the way up and down or fixated rather obviously on her ass. ;)

You've probably seen this already but here's a video game conspiracy theory related to Mass Effect: Cracked.com: 6 Insane Video Game Fan Theories That Make Total Sense (page 2). It's number 2 on the list and there are spoilers related to Mass Effect 3.

Yeah, I definitely don't recommend the video until you've played the trilogy all the way through (and maybe more than once).

And her Skyrim songs are awesome!

I'm enjoying my renegade playthrough. Telling the 5th fleet general to piss off was great :)

Woah.. Ash. That "Old Machines" song. That is ... awesome.

Shigy: I'm gonna have to seriously do renegade soon just for that.

The music for the entire trilogy is awesome, though I myself prefer the music for ME1 and ME2 (by Jack Wall) the most. I'm sure some of the DJs here have the music for that (and many other games) so ME fans should def request stuff, the DJ might just have it.

A friend of mine in Canada knows people who work in Bioware. She said there was an easter egg he snuck into one of the games involving a space hamster (supposedly not the main one). I'm trying to find it, but in looking for it, I found this:
Citadel Hamster

That reminds me, I don't have the Citadel pack yet (gonna get it soon, but wanted to hold off on spending a lot of money. Also doing achievement,s which have earned me quite a few origin points, which will save me some money ^.^

She also said that he tried to sneak a wedding proposal easter egg into the game, but apparently they caught that one at some point, and told him he wasn't allowed to do that

Are you sure the Easter Egg he's talking about isn't that you can find your hamster again in ME3 if you bought it in ME2? (hint: he's running around on your ship somewhere)

I asked her, and she insisted that it was "something else" or that there was a "different" hamster. I can't find anything about hamsters in ME aside from getting one, recapturing it, and then in Citadel when someone throws your stuff in the garbage and Shepard is like "this is personal" and "go for the eyes". I'll ask her again. She said it was specifically an easter egg for his girlfriend.
