Just about finished Mass Effect : what a game!!

[SHMUPGurus]

Here is my usual rundown of the game (must have posted this over 3 times already):

Honestly, I thought it reminded me a lot of Star Trek with all the different cultures, races, the Alliance (like the Federation for Earth), etc. That's one of the reasons why I thought that the story was going to be awesome because everything made sense. We also get a great view of how the political affairs take place in the not-so-distant future! I thought the story was very well-written and the gameplay was plain awesome (even though there were some frame-drops).

By the way, the ending was just too epic, especially when you have invested a couple of months in the game like me (school was killing me). I see you're not disappointed so far, and the last hours just get better! I always thought "Oh, this is how it all ends? Hmmm, ok..." but then other things start and stuff, etc. Let's just say I haven't been so proud to watch the credits of a game in my entire life (and the music was pretty good, it matched the style)!

I was sad at the same time because I would have to wait another year for a sequel though... Only thing I know is that according to Casey Hudson, Project Director for BioWare, players should keep their Mass Effect save-files, because decisions made by the player in the first game will continue to have influences on their character in the sequel. And yeah, I took that from Wikipedia!
