Solid game, not too much has changed but the decisions do not have much impact in this part of the series.

User Rating: 8 | Mass Effect 3 X360
Mass effect 3 is a solid game and a conclusion to a great series.

Pros. The gameplay is smooth and refined. The controls still seem a little clunky as always but in a way that makes it feel like they should be. The graphics are slightly improved and will not disappoint. The multiplayer was a nice add on even though it is more of a coop match. The sound and music are amazing.

Cons. There seems to be not as much character development in this game. I did not feel attached to the squad-mates as I did in the previous games. The story had a few decisions but in the end essentially did not noticeably affect the ending. No matter what decisions you made throughout the 3 games, one could choose any of the 3 endings. This made me wonder if the ending was rushed. The ending left a lot unanswered, but I am sure there will DLC to "buy " to see what more happens. Some people griped about the stock photo of Tali, I did not mind, but I do wonder how she has 10 fingers now, in the game she had 3 on each hand.

My biggest gripe is day one DLC, especially since it involves a promethian. A huge part of the story, imo. Bioware says they created the content after the game was finished. The few things I mentioned above were half assed so I do not think the game was finished, if so it was rushed. And I do not appreciate getting lied to. So that drops my score 1 point.

So I give it a solid 8. Not higher because of the forgettable ending, DLC, and lies.
