I'm Commander Shepard...
And this is my favourite Windows emulator on the Citadel.
Finally got it working. Still trying to figure out how to import my ME1 save, but I'm not going to touch anything until I know what I'm doing, just looking for now, don't want to mess it up again. Playing Generic Shep, and it's not too bad so far, though that's probably helped by the fact I haven't met Councilor Udina that Generic McAwfulchoices Shepard appointed for some reason, or met Wrex's replacement yet. That and I was able to make a decent-looking FemShep, so I won't have to deal with Ashley.
The graphics are messed-up, a lot more than the photo shows, but it's workable. It's mainly backgrounds being a little fuzzy, and faces looking less like faces, more like masks, at least on humans. That, and all humans have completely black eyes. The shading's also a little weird, but next to the faces and backgrounds, it doesn't stick out. I tried setting it higher too, but that killed it and made me reinstall. But hey, graphics issues don't ruin the game - the plot and gameplay are still there, and with Bioware, that's what really matters, especially the former. If I could figure out how to import a Shepard who didn't make bad decisions in ME1, I'd be completely happy so far. But take what you can get, beggars can't be choosers, and neither can people using emulators to run modern software on improper hardware and operating systems.
My only concern is having to go through all this again when ME3 comes out. I pray I can at least figure out how to import my save on that one - Apparently more people can die this time, depending on what you do, and I don't want to risk Generic McAwfulchoices killing the crew members I like in another ill-advised playthrough, for ME2 this time instead of ME1.
