You cant say that Jhlennon since MGS4 and FF are not out.

In my opinion you can keep them as long as i get mass effect, ive rarely been as impressed as i am with this game. the ONLY thing that hurt really hurts the game is the framerate issues and loading. Besides that its a jewel in video games. This game has so much to offer, and no rpg has ever offered more replayability.

To say mass effect isnt unique is completly rediculas, least in my opinion. Yet to play a game with the amount of cotent, voice acting, and the way story evolves.

Mass effect is dirt crap compared to MGS4 and FF 13.........HA

Oho, greatest huh?

Graphics? Well you can take your realistic looking game with shitty frame rate and load issues and I'll take my beautifully painted 2D games like Chrono Trigger and FFVI.

Story? While Mass Effect has awesome background and characters, it doesn't compare to FFVI and its character development.

Replayability? Mass Effect does offer incentives to replay the game several times, but I doubt most people are going to play the entire game through more than one time. That leaves you with about 15-20 hours of gameplay on average. If you look at something like FFVI that game lasts, what, 40 hours? If you look at Chrono Trigger that game has 13 different endings and it does a great job at encouraging players to actually want to come back.

I won't argue that Mass Effect is a wonderful game but just don't say it's the best at anything besides perhaps voice acting.

-edit-
As for talking about FFXIII and MGS4 and trying to compare those games, there's no point in even trying since, you know, none of us have played the finished game yet.


Load issues were really not that bad, they had their moments but really didnt destroy the game, you must really hate them

This is opinion as is your whole post, i think mass effect and its characters are fantastic, it wont appear to have so much character development because its not linear, you have choices. Besides that the story is still one of the best ive seen, with side quests actually some being awsome.

I highly doubt that, the amount of different scenerios with different characters, choices all make for compelling replay, not only that but custimization and different classes. Im sorry but this goes back to your arguement that like bioshock even with different endings it doesnt have that much incentive to replay again. Mass effect does and i cant believe you argue this. Im also at 30 hours and havent beat it (the you know who just attacked the cidital) so 15-20 hours is just doing main quest.

I dont think its the best at anything but voice acting i agree with you, but its still one of the top games in each of its genres including the worse framerate issues.......

Exactly, but still calling mass effect dirt? Comon really?
