The article raises valid points about game hype. However, I disagree in regards to Mass Effect 2. I believe the game deserves the ratings it is getting, and the buzz. I would argue that it is in running for best RPG this generation (the series of games at least does). If what Mass Effect 2 is, isn't what one is into, they won't get into it. But I believe for others, it is really good. It has a greatly developed world, good voice acting, and provides players with good choices. It isn't perfect, but it deserves the praise it gets. Uncharted 2 deserved it, and so does Mass Effect 2.
