Play it. Definitely. It has the strongest plot of the three games. That said, it also has the weakest mechanics.

Fortunately, if you play it on PC, it smooths out most of the glitches you find on the Xbox version, and is a measurably better experience (and a prettier one). If you don't have that option, it's playable enough on Xbox, but be prepared for slowdown in big fights, poor shooting mechanics, a poor user interface, and quite a lot of long load times and texture loading.

I can live with that, though. I love the game. Absolutely adore it. Completed it on 360 and PC more times than I'm willing to divulge, and am happy to admit it's my favourite of the series (followed by ME2, then ME3 -- ME3's end ruined the game for me, for all the incredible highs it offered).
