Mass Effect

Now if you have not heard of this game I'll give you the run down. Mass Effect is an rpg that takes place in space. It centers around commander Shepard, and his or hers mission to take down a rouge agent of the galactic council before he can end all sentient life in the universe. Now this games main selling point is its unique dialouge system whick allows for many different outcomes in a conversation, which you will be having a lot of.

This combined with a amazing plot and massive setting make this game an epic experience. Sadly while the story is top notch the actual gameplay isn't exactly perfect. the game

is a third person shooter so you spend most of your time in cover or should I say all of your time in cover if you even think about leaving your cover enemies will quickly gun you down leaving you to reload your last save. The game also gives you various powers such as telekenesis and paralysis. These are hard to use and have a tendency to fail(unless the computers are using them.) The exploration the game promises is also a dud. All the planets you visit are pretty much the same, your either an the desert, in a snowstorm, or in a volcano. But still despite all of that I still feel the story is worth the purchase, however if you don't care for such things I feel you should stay away from it.
