2 is pretty horrible for me.
I had an amazing time playing the first one and would class it in my top 10 games this gen (I think). The narrative arc in ME1 is just unparalleled. What you discover, when you discover it, how the environments, characters and combat situations progress towards the finale is unmatched in the series, it feels very natural.
The beginning of 2 just throws away all that momentum and important events and almost 'starts over' at the beginning, in a very contrived way. From there it ends up being a poorly connected set of individual character stories as you recruit members. Only a handful are compelling, and my BIGGEST gripe with the game is that, no matter the story, the situation, the unique characters or events, NO MATTER what, every damn one of these missions just ends up being an hour long slog through areans of chest-high walls and respawning grunts, Gears of War style. It's SO contrived and generic. Every damn character mission. And the big finale? The same damn thing. And I'm not even touching on the dumbed-down RPG elements.
The less said about 3 the better. At least one of the scenarios was great. The rest...
These are all just my opinions though, you may think very differently. Bottom line is, I absolutely loved 1, it took me months to bother finishing 2, and by 3 I was just watching it on youtube.
