I need to stop playing Dragon Age and Mass Effect! Seriously I have other games and outside of SSFIV, I don't seem to play any of them.

Don't then, your playing the superior game anyway!

I am sad that I am completely left out of the discussion but at the same time happy because I have at least 50 wonderful gaming hours in front of me (since I haven't even played ME 1).

Yes you should! I'm excited to hear what you think of Dragon Age.

How many hours have u clocked with the Mass Effects anyway?

Hater. I think my dog doesn't like you anymore.

It smelt Alistair's blood on my hands I guess!

Me and the wife have been playing Mass Effect almost exclusive of all other games since mid-June. There is just no telling. The hour number is getting absurd.

Stop. Alistair is holy.

Haha. I think you're crazy. I played Dragon Age for 80 hours and the expansion for 40. But as much as I love them, and I mention them because I assume Mass Effect is very similar in structure being story based more than "loot and stat" based, there's not too much replayability. I will play them again in the future but only after I've forgotten a good bit.

You probably have replayed many ME missions several times?

Mass Effect and especially Mass Effect 2 are built in a way to encourage replayability. I've played both of them atl east a half dozen times, and have many more times that I plan to play the second one. I'm just getting started, really.

Each class (especially in the second game) plays differently, you have different romantic options depending on your gender, on andn on and on. They're built almost specifically to be replayed about a hojillion times.

ME2 in particular is all the most addictive parts of a BioWare game combind with all the most addictive parts of a good shooter.
