Mass Effect

Mass effect for the 360 review:

First Opinion:
My first views before playing this game is well it looks sort of Star wars-ish which kind of turned me off the idea of playing this game. But reluctantly I did.

Review:
Well this game is amazing - I was totally wrong about it originally (does that come as a surprise to anyone)

The good things about it: Where do I start?
Amazingly unique game play system that fuses the squad system, FPS and RPGs system into a single system that isn't confusing or hard to get used too. It also isn't so easy that a trained monkey could master it in 5 mins either which is nice caus then I get some satisfaction out of beating the game.

Very unique cast of characters also makes this game extreamly interesting that and the unique story line combined with the interesting choices you can make make this game amazing.

Oh yeah the graphics kick behind too just so you know.


The Bad things:
Well If your an achievement hungry 360er like me this game takes FOREVER to get all of the achievements. The first play through will take you maybe 20-50 or so hours and you'll have to complete it several more times to get all of the achievements.

The game is almost too long too - the side missions will take you additional hours and they are required to get the achievements.

Otherwise this game is perfect and has a lot of room to sequel on - so as long as they don't kill the story.

Side note: I really wish they had made some of this multi player - the map when approaching the conduit would have been an amazing multi player map <3.

Rent it or buy it?
Buy it indeffintly - good investment seeing how you could be playing this game for 100+ hours.
