Even as a PlayStation fan, I must say this game looks excellent.
Just one more word I have to write ... EPIC ( did i just sound like an ass there ? )
ActionTrip - 91/100
"Bottom line, this game is not the second coming. It doesn't live up to
the hype in the way some hoped it might (and really, which overhyped
game does). But, this is truly an evolutionary step in BioWare's
development of single-player RPGs."
EuroGamer - 8/10 - "Where
it doesn't quite hit the mark for me is in the action stakes. Although
it underpins the game with all sorts of excellent ideas that ought to
make it a deeper, more intelligent and immersive experience, the simple
truth is that the minute-to-minute combat simply isn't as intense and
involving as you'd expect from a game in 2007. Throw in some grumbles
about the somewhat unoptimised state of the frame-rate, texture pop-in
and v-syncing terrors, and it's a game that just falls short of our
expectations."
Shacknews - Too cool for scores (TARE!)- "It
succeeds in spite of its faults, and by the end, I was left excited
with the idea of an improved sequel. For that reason, it's a game that
every RPG fan should play."
TeamXbox - 9.6/10 - "Despite
it's flaws, there's no denying that Mass Effect is one of the best
games of the year, and is certainly the best RPG on the Xbox 360."
GameSpy - 5/5 - "Warts
and all, you'll want to experience Mass Effect if you have any interest
at all in enjoying one of the greatest efforts that modern videogaming
has to offer."
IGN - 9.4/10 - Mass Effect is game that is greater than the sum of its parts.
Technical issues abound, but the majority of Mass Effect is so expertly
delivered that it can transcend its weaknesses. Applying number ratings
to a game like this doesn't do it justice because there is no way you
can ignore its technical flaws. Simply put, Mass Effect is a game that
must be played. Then it must be played again. Don't pass this one up.
Gametrailers - 9.6/10 Is this RPG out of this world?
