Mass Effect 2

A huge improvement over it's predecessor, which was in itself a great game.

Mass Effect (hereby referred to as ME) was a good game, though I never classed it as a great game due to it's technical difficulties, poor inventory system and confusing role-playing elements.

ME2 has fixed all of these problems to make a much more fluid game-play package and a thoroughly enjoyable experience. Great characters, amazing cinematics and fantastic action to glue it all together is what Mass Effect is all about. Problems with inventory are gone, and the RPG aspects have been trimmed down to make the whole experience more accessible and less maintenance heavy while still giving you a nice level of customization. Some technical difficulties persists, mostly with characters getting stuck in environments, but hopefully that will be addressed in a patch.

Mass Effect 2 has restored my faith in Bioware. Get it today!
