The Mass Effect 2 video game is very detailed down to a large list of objects that add realism to the game and increase the curiosities of the people who also play the game. There is a section of the ship in which there is a real working trash compactor. The trash compactor allows your character to put something inside and compact it with the push of a button. This is comical in some instances as you can place objects in there that shouldn’t really be compacted and eject them out into space.
There are many reasons why the trash compactor is there. In fact there is an easter egg (video game secret) which can be accessed by using the trash compactor a number of times with other characters present. The other thing that happens is that there is an achievement that is possible by using the trash compactor which helps to more complete the game. The process involves using the compactor several times to get the achievement. There is no real reason to using the trash compactor, but it does have a use as an atypical weapon for a period of the game.
The trash compactor is as useful as the personal toilet in your character’s room, or the need for bathrooms on the game with different gender assignments. The shower rooms in the game also exist but really do nothing as there are never any people using them. The whole point is to have a large amount of realism to the game which makes it more real than a poorly made game which hardly has anything other than simple game play to look forward to.
