A great RPG that reminds you why you love them so much.

User Rating: 9 | Mass Effect X360
Mass Effect is one of the many reasons why RPGs are so popular. The main storyline is brilliant, where you go after a rogue Spectre, who has almost unlimited access to anything he can think of, until the Council (a group of aliens) sees he has gone renegade and strip him off his rank. Following this deadly renegade pits you against loads of enemies, amongst which are the Geth, the Husks, the Creepers, the Rachni, the Krogans, and mercenaries. All these enemies are as diverse as they sound, with each one having their own ways of acting and tactics. The combat system in Mass Effect works brilliantly well, depending on which class you choose acts towards how much you can help in combat. You can use your abilities to either boost your allies, or affect the world around you. The side missions are great fun as well, and help you to expand the plot and find out more about the universe as a whole. The actions you take when talking to people have great repercussions, and you can either be really nice to someone, or just bite their head off.
