Really? I didn't think that was the hardest part at all, they even gave you plenty of cover!

Yes, but harbringer has that attack that pushes you out of cover, and the scions are generally a nightmare. What did you think was the hardest part

Mass Effect 2 is the best game I have played in a long time. Good job Bioware.

Just out of interest, for the major choices did you chose based on your alignment or what you truly wanted, I mean the big things like

Geth
What to do with the collector station
Samara/Morinth

And other bits and bobs. I find that I am having to mix and match, because any time Thane is involved I have to be nice, which goes against the style in my renegade playthrough, but with the real big choices, I just want to see the 2 different outcomes

I don't know to be honest. I was an infiltrator, and ust earlier that mission I got the Windowmaker sniper, it 2-3 shots the harbinger and the scions. As I said, this is a very easy game if you go an all out sniper team.

Well I am a Sentinel, whose tech armour is great, so I couldn't get the Widowmaker, but my current squad is Legion and Thane, all with snipers! And I think it is going to stay that way for the suicide mission, Grunt is great, but he doesn't do the same damage as Legion. Snipers are ridiculously overpowered; since that mission, I have upgraded my sniper greatly, so it has just been a piece of cake, I have only died maybe once or twice

Just finished the game. Planning on playing it again, but as evil.

I understand the first two big choices, but what's the 3rd one you mention about?

In Samaras loyalty mission, you can kill Samara or Morinth, I know it is not a big choice, but it is a paragon/renegade choice nonetheless

You can kill Samara?? That seems like a big choice to me...

As for your first question... my first playthrough I continue'd my renegade from ME1, and chose mostly renegade, but I often went with my feelings over the renegade route. (I tend towards saving/helping people when possible)  I kinda regretted that, as I chose the +70 paragon/renegade bonus option skill, instead of th +100%, and it prevented me from maxing them out, so I lost 1 person's loyalty before the final mission.
