Well, Mass Effect 3 is out this week and I pre-ordered it.
Generally I wasn't really into BioWare games much, but I heard a lot of good things about Mass Effect, and since I love Sci-Fi so much I decided to give it a go.
I enjoyed Mass Effect 2 for many reasons.
Firstly, I missed out on Gears of War and many other similar cover shooters (never had a 360/PS3), so it was a unique experience for me to have this kind of frantic combat. After realising it was something my PC could run comfortably, I jumped at the chance of trying some next-gen gameplay. I really like levelling up squadmates and picking abilities... for me it's just the ultimate way of developing characters in a meaningful way which will affect how a player can experience a game. Heck, trainee assassins in AC:Brotherhood was the main reason I bought it (along with multiplayer).
I look forward to the multiplayer gameplay. Until AC Relevations gets cheaper, this'll be my main source of multiplayer modes on the PC for a while (besides TF2 of course). For an intro to multiplayer check this (
yes that is my voice on the video!):
I love many things about Mass Effect in general. The alien races, the mythology behind the characters, the backstories, the voices, the graphical style. In particular I like the squadmates Tali'Zorah, Garrus and Grunt. All three are awesome in so many ways, though I do love the mercenary Zaeed as well. His lines are just so badass in every way!
Has anyone else played Mass Effect 1/2 before? What did you think?
