story amazing, crew is amazing! gonna crack on with bioshock now then come back to it for the second time

I think you are smoking something if you think the story is amazing. Mostly because there was no story at all for it to be amazing to begin with.

The story isn't amazing, but the individual bits of story and quite interesting if you get what I am saying... And the characters are interesting

@ recon101, insanity becomes easy after that, I have only died a few times since then, and I am about to go through the Omega relay, and I wouldn't describe myself as god like at these games

The question is "what is story"? The central plot for Mass Effect 2 is very straight forward true. However, the world and character development done in the loyalty missions is superb. The loyalty subplots, character developments, and main plot are all interwoven into Mass Effect 2's story. You need to have a variety of plots and subplots to keep a story interesting. Bioware does interweave plots / subplots and produces very good stories.

The game is not perfect. I disliked the scanning but the writing in Mass Effect 2 is not in question.
