  • Abstract:  Bioware knows RPGs. They’ve been cranking them out since Jesus was a carpenter and they’re still in business for one very good reason: they’re damn good at what they do. Their back catalogue reads like a “best ever RPGs” list, with classics like Knight...

  • Another fantastic story where your decisions matter. The option to bring along a save game from the first game that will alter the universe you play. A very personal experience. Far improved shooting and cover mechanics make combat fun. Very cool classes...
  • A lot of long loading screens. Instead of improving planet exploration, it has been removed taking away some of the previous games wonder. The scanning for minerals system is tedious, yet essential if you want to succeed in the final mission. No more loot...

  • Abstract:  The original Mass Effect was a flawed masterpiece. It successfully blended space-age action with role-playing and an involving plot, although some aspects of the game worked better than others.Occasional technical glitches sometimes spoiled the game’s ...

  • Abstract:  Published February 21st 2010. Written by Sean Bell. You know a videogame’s got to be pretty good when the mere thought of reviewing it actually scares you a little bit. Generally speaking, enthusing about a game you love is the easiest job in the world...

  • Abstract:  The first Mass Effect game was great and flawed in equal measure. The clever conversation system found a fantastic middle ground between the fluid exchanges of cutscenes and the stilted yet interactive nature of more traditional branching dialogue tree...

  • Evolving plot, rich characters, doesn't penalise newcomers
  • You won't be getting much sleep, some long loading times
  • RPG purists might snort at the more action-friendly bias, but anyone with sense will realise that this is a magnificent effort that sees Bioware back at its best...

  • Finely crafted story, characters and dialog, Ramped up action with better controls, Continuing your story with an imported character
  • The mining minigame is a pile of ass, Helmethead intrudes on key scenes, Armor and equipment management is too refined

  • Mass Effect 2 displays some inconsequential flaws during its third act, granted, but in all other ways what we have here is a piece of entertainment that penetrates the line between gaming and cinema like no other, while simultaneously representing the...

  • Great looking visuals; improved combat system; unique side quests and missions.
  • Smaller environments to explore; AI characters occasionally act stupid.
  • Mass Effect 2 is in many ways feels less like a traditional CRPG from Bioware and more of a personalised adventure in space. The game’s strong cast of characters, improved and combat and streamlined gameplay make ME 2 one of the most enjoyable CRPGs...
