There were a lot of players who genuinely enjoyed Mass Effect, even with it's inherent list of problems, technical and otherwise. Not a big list, but definitely enough to turn off some players.

Personally, I found myself unable to finish the game, even after doing the install to shorten the notorious elevator rides. It had less to do with technical issues like frame rates, and more to do with just not being able to get into the game enough to care what happened.

But, I think I'm in the minority. And unfortunately, I won't buy Mass Effect 2 unless I finish Mass Effect because of the shared game save system.

If Steam ever bundles Mass Effect for free with ME2, I'll buy it again and start over.
