I am so there Tuesday morning at 12 am.
I believe I have my 360 save data for ME2 on a memory stick. I am not sure if it is there or not. I don't have a 360 at the moment though. I can't have more than two console systems at a time; don't ask why. I chose to keep the Wii for XenoBlade over the 360 for ME3. I figured I could just play it on the PS3. I thought there would be some kind of details of a digital comic or some manner of making choices from the first two games to prepare for the third. That's not what I am gathering these days though. It seems BioWare went ahead and made the choices FOR people who didn't play or don't have saves from the first two games. I've been stressing and stressing about whether or not the game would have the same choices I made as the "defaults" for ME3.
I'm done stressing.
I'm not the kind of person to replay games, really. If I do, it's RARE.
Tonight I started a play-thru of ME2 on the PS3, fully intending to finish by Tuesday, 12AM.
Yeah, Mass Effect is --THAT-- kind of game. That's not something I say all too often.
I always played as a Solider and its upgraded class, so this time I thought I would try something different. I believe I chose an Adept, or whatever the all Biotics class is called. I can never remember the ME classes very well.
So far I have Archangel (not that one, Garrus), Mordin, Zaeed, Kasumi and Jack. I've done Kasumi's Hidden Memories, gone to the Citadel and done quite a bit of research. Not bad for one day, but the day is not over and I still need to pick up the pace for Monday night!
Edit: ...and I just realized this would be better suited for the playthru thread!
Leo there are many sites that have game saves you can download, i am sure they have one for every situation.
I will play as a soldier first as it is the base class, I like to do that first. Later I will mess around with the other classes.
Did you guys know that ME3 on 360 comes on 2 discs and on gaf they are saying it goes mission by mission so if you do a main mission then a side mission you have to switch discs, then switch again when you do a main mission. You will be switching discs a ton of times.

Unless you install. ME2 also did come in 2 discs and there was no disc swapping whatsoever. At any rate, it doesn't bother me.

See, I'm considering doing the same thing. I've always, always played as a soldier, but having powers/biotics does seem awfully tempting at the moment.

Since I have 1 and 2 on 360 I wanted to get 3 for the same as well, but since I have a Core unit (albeit with beefy USB sticks) installation won't be an option for me. I hope this doesn't turn out to be true.
EDIT: Then again, (I'll save Foolz the post to point this out), when TF have I ever done a side mission? This won't effect me.

Nope if you install you still need to change discs. Check neogaf, everyone is talking about it, even on the citadel if you switch missions you have to change discs.

I can't see them setting the game up that way....is this coming from someone that's actually played it? That would be completely retarded. The only game I have EVER experienced like that was Tiger Woods 2004 on the Gamecube. It came on two discs, and you had to switch discs every time you went to a different golf course.
Considering how well Bioware know the 360 hardware though...I really can't see them designing the game this way. Changing discs every mission? That would destroy the game. If they ARE stupid enough to do that, I am twice as glad I am going with the PC version.
I'm gonna be seriously pissed if the disc swapping thing is true because all of my previous ME saves are on 360. The Bioware site seems down right now. :x
Ok, did some digging around for answers on the disc swapping and this is what I found.....Just second-hand info.

Actually, it's a minor spoiler
If you try to do the sidequests before unlocking the Tuchanka planet, then you will have to swap a lot. Wait until that planet is unlocked before doing everything in the galaxy.
