So I say it will be. Im back to review the MS saga in honor of the of its newest intre. as said in my Prototype 2 review. And to kick this off what better to start with than what my reviews always start with... THE AWSOME STORY. But before in get into too much detail about this game let me tell you that you should play the previous game before before this install because if you did save your plathroughs from the last game things you did there will come into play in this game like some people you met will make an appearence unless you chose to kill them and you still have the attitude that you devloped from the last game which will make this game a more cinimatic and emotional experence but if you could care less about this you can still start fresh but you will get your money's worth. So the story is that you play as Comander Sheperd (you are able to customse your Sheperd in any way imaginable from a boy to a girl you name it) and you still have to deal with problems from the last game (like Ashely) and if it weren't bad enough an unknown enemy destroies your ship (the Normandy) and you are left for dead. Luckily this game dosn't take place in the world of reality so you are albe to be merackulosly brought back into the land of the living in great timing as the rehibilitation center he is in is now under attack throwing you into well placed and refined combat. And speaking is of which, the original's Gameplay & combat is back and better than ever as it is solid and superior to its prediseur in every way plus you now have no more cookie cutter side missions you can now fly-yes-fly your way to a planet and invest yourself in amazing and original side mission with the only small grype being mineing which is one of the olny ways to reteive new equipment. Sound is amazing and prefromances are strong in ever department and the score is somthing out of the amazing movie that rhymes with Star Trek. Grapics are far more beautiful than the first as BioWare uses beautiful lighting to deliver a darker and more serious tone to the franchise that is througholy welcome. Lasting Appeal also outlast this game's predecusr as the beloved RPG elements are back as you feel more aware of the difference you are making in this universe. So with everything redifined to be one of the best Sci Fy stroyies ever told and getting some recognition for actually competing with movies like the most recent Star Trek and The Empire Strikes Back this game is easily one of the best games of the year that it was made. All in all this game gets a five otu of five to ten out of ten stars. Please comment and rate this review it helps me know if I should change anything.
This game is worth every single penny that you spend on it. Not only does it provide a unique gameplay and upgrade experience, but it is also a very large game. It has some very unique features like the mining planets for certain materials you will need for upgrades. I love this game and cannot wait for its successor!
Mass Effect 2 is the middle chapter in an epic role-playing saga. Do not let the 2 scare you away from buying this because the sequel is usually better than the original(in video games). The thing that makes this game so much better than the original, is the way the game is presented. The last game had a fuzzy style and graphics but, this one doesn't. Mass Effect 2 looks great for its launch date but, there are a few glitches and odd lighting effects. The combat is so much better than in ME1, so now I'm actually able to have fun. I've already written a Mass Effect 1 review so, would you kindly go give that one a thumbs up and read it for more details on the combat? The best thing about this game is the characters. Like in the first one, you actually feel for them instead of hoping for them to die. Mass Effect 2 is an excellent title that must be played for fans of the genre.

Imagine any recent Halo games (Halo 3-Halo 4) had a RPG feature that allowed you to have multiple options in any situation. Thumbs Up for Custom Character, Team Member selection, Voice Option and it's shooting. If you play this game for too long in one preiod of time, the game could get old. I do praise it's graphics for being pretty good and sound being reallly detailed, but it's character detail is perfect for any gamer
