This a perfect game for people that like to play action/RPG's or over-the-shoulder shooters! I'm having a lot of fun just exploring the world and doing the missions (That's different). Game has great sound and presentation' and the shooting and powers are really fun to combine with each other. The graphics are really great and immersive. A great, fun game!
Mass Effect 2 is an amazing experience, though by itself it is still a good game i cannot recommend highly enough that players play through the original Mass Effect on 360 or PC and continue their own specific story and then continue onto Mass Effect 3. not only by playing ME 1 will you have your own personal story, but you will also greatly understand the conflicts in ME2. Combat has been changed for the better, including better use of cover, power weapons, and different weapons within weapon types (Shotguns, Snipers, Assualt Rifles, etc.) that was lacking in the first game allong with different enemy types and a better perception of health. Gone is the massive inventory were you didn't really know what you had or how much until you got a warning. You'll even get slightly addicted to the new planet scanning mechanic (maybe). Allong with a better designed story and main campain with characters you'll actually care about and want to converse with (Minus Subject Zero, SUPER PLUS for Mordin and Legion). This is truely one of the few examples where the sequel of a game is better in every way but still seems to inovate and be its own game. By itself Mass Effect 2 is a great game from 2010, continuing the story with Commander Shepard from the beginning makes it one of the best games ever made. Nothing is lacking, from drama, mystery, action, humor, and immersion its all there and including BioWares great DLC and you've got a game you'll want to play over and over.
