Mass Effect 2
Console: Xbox 360, PC
Publisher: Bioware

Mass Effect 2 is a third person shooter, and is similar to Star Wars: Knights Of the Old Republic. But you get to shoot and there is much more Mature things (such as a party member). Sadly, the game has no multiplayer function, but the game is long enough for it not to.

I didn't quite beat the game yet, i am about 7 hours into the game, So far there were no seemingly impossible enemy's i have to kill. It is just the right difficulty, if you feel it is too easy then change the difficulty of course.

For this game there are many types of playing this game, you can be tactical and send your party to other sides of the area and take on the enemy's or you can just all hide behind a piece of cover and shoot or perhaps you want to go long range with a sniper rifle.

So far the game from 1-10, is a 9, This depends on what kind of games you enjoy to play. I enjoy the Aspect where you can almost do anything you want, you can fly around and search unknown planets and shoot probes at planets for materials to upgrade your weapons, you can go into cities and do side quests and shop for various items.

This game is very replayable, there are text options that can give you Paragon (Good) Points, or Renegade (Bad) Points. There are even options during the cut-scenes that allow you to interrupt and do something good or bad. Apart from the text choices you can start out with several classes, Soldier, Adept, Engineer, Infiltrator, Vanguard, or Sentinel. Each of these classes has a special thing they are advanced in or Powers they have.

The story of this game is as good as the Assassins Creed. It has two CDs so the game must be so, so long. I would say if you want to finish the game buy it, or rent it several times. You would think that if the game is so long the graphics must be crap right? well your wrong the graphics of the game are pretty fantastic.

The Controls are very easy to get used of, I had no problem switching from Modern Warfare 2 to this game.

Spoilers!!!!!
I will write the summary up to where i am, and i will edit it when i finish the game.
Summary: The game starts up with a Cut-scene Commander Shepard is on a ship and then another ship comes and shoots lazors at the ship - The Normandy, And the ship starts to blow up and everyone is evacuating and Shepard doesnt make it and he floats in space and lands on a planet - dead -. He gets found by a group and they start up his heart and gets his blood pumping agian and he is revived, this takes place by in a period of two years. When he finally wakes up the ship he is on is being attacked by robots and he grabs a pistol and you have to fight the robots. you eventually meet up with your first party member. you go through the rest of the Prologue and at the end you meet your second party member. you escape on a ship. you go meet The Illusioned man. This starts your main quest. You get a replication of The Normandy. And the pilot of the original Normandy is the new pilot of your ship. Now you go to different planets and slowly get crew members. i have about 6 out of 10ish.

Paragon and Renegade aren't necessarily good and bad. Also, don't ever compare Mass Effect's storyline to Assassin's Creed. ME blows AC out of the water in that regard. I like AC2 as a game, but the writing is anything but spectacular, where as ME/ME2 is actually mindblowingly cinematic.

ME2 is the only reason I would consider buying a 360. It's like the Uncharted 2 of the 360 world.

I'm not comparing them on a gameplay level, but on the same lever that I got a PS3 solely for U2 and LBP and I would get a 360 for ME2 and some other games.

This I'd agree with, but you could also just get ME1 and 2 on the PC as well.

It took me 30+ hours to beat this game. I savour this kind of games because of their amazingness.
I'm going to replay the game as a renegade vanguard, sometime; I'm pumped for BioShock 2 right now, one more week...
