Pretty good review and close to my views. I'm not in the ME is 'one the best camp'. It's very good, but way too flawed with repetitive planet missions, mostly boring side quests and weak shooting mechanics to be in the best of the best camp IMO. I felt ME, like Halo before it, is revered more in terms of that kind of game on a console vs that kind of game in total.
In many ways I found it a step back in pure RPG terms, with limited content around a good core story, with a drive to be more 'action' orientated to appeal to the modern shooter crowd which was hampered with fairly average shooting mechanics.
85% game for me. ME2 does look better though, so I'm looking forward to giving it a whirl as well.
Oh, and you're right, landing on the Moon was quite cool indeed. A nice touch to be sure.

I totally agree with you on ME1. ME2 actually lives up to the hype, I urge you to check it out.

I'll definately get ME2. I'm travelling around on my laptop at the moment so I'm going to hold off until I get home to my PC in a few weeks. I don't want to spoil it by playing it with settings dialled down.
Good to hear your view - I've been pretty confident that Bioware were going to keep the good stuff (of which there was a lot) from the first while improving all the weak elements.
