Is this game worth playing if you've not played 1 or 2?

Without 1 and 2, it'll be a highly enjoyable and fast-paced third person action game which doesn't make very much sense.

Play the entire series and it becomes an epic adventure and story in which everything is interlinked.

So, from best to worst:

1) Playing ME3 after playing ME1 and ME2

2) Playing ME3 without playing ME1 and/or ME2

3) Not playing ME3

Mass Effect 1, you can maybe possibly miss if you hate fun, but there is no excuse at all for not playing ME2.
