Yes, fist, sorry.

I knew Flux was the other club in the lower market other than Choras Den. However, I couldn't think of the guys name.

Yes, Fist is in ME2 if you save him. On my ME1 character, I used him prior to realizing that it wasn't my 'optimal' decision tree for ME1:

- I saved the council, elected Anderson (real ME1 character let them die)...Obviously, this is pretty big on the storyline
- I saved Kaiden (of course, I would have rather saved Ashley and on my ME1 character, I did)
- I saved Fist (blasted him on most other saves

But yeah, ME2 is a fantastic RPG. It just now has decent tactical TPS elements rather than 'hey lets stay out in the open and win the battle 90% of the time'. In ME2, you CAN NOT take down any number of enemies by the rudimentary tactics used by most ME1 characters.

For example, there's a small side mission you can take by completing other missions for a character on Omega. The reward is the location of containers full of goods that can be sold for a profit.

Unfortunately, the area has 3 of the YMIR heavy mechs which use mini-guns and missile launchers. Guess what? If you stay out in the open, you may take down half of one of its 3 life bars. In ME1, you could probably win by staying out in the open. Heck, I beat Geth Armitures and Colossus that way by running around like a madman.

When people talk about ME2, they are just talking about whats different, not whats the same. As I said, 80% is the same great game. 10-15% is better, 5-10% is worse.

Those heavy mechs were a bitch.

I got owned about five times.
