Mass Effect 2 is a pretty good game.

Probably not...I can't see most PC games getting the required 15 votes. Although I could do Starcraft 2, WOW and the likes since i'm pretty sure most everyone has played them. |
yes please do starcraft 2. I would also love to see left4dead eventually though I fear that game might suffer from people either loving it or hating it and not much inbetween.
For Mass Effect 2, even though I wasn't all that hyped with it, it didn't even exceed my expectations. It was a decent TPS with a great story and some average rpg elements added to it, but there are plenty of other better tps. I think vanquish, dead space 2, and uncharted 2 where all superior as third person shooters, though it was better than gears of war and resident evil 5. I would give it an 8.5. The combat was somewhat lacking and repetitive, but every other aspect of the game was top notch. To some people the combat is all that matters, but to me its only one of the more important details.
| Aldro said: 8.0 / 10 A great game, but not as many RP elements as the first one and overall a more "action/third person shooting" moments. Not a fan of the gameplay to be quite honest but still a solid 8. |
Lol do you play RPGs at all?
Though I find a 8/10 generous from someone as biased against anything non-ps3 exclusive as you.

Mass Effect 2 is my favorite game of this generation so far. Its not perfect, but its still one of the best game experiences you can get period. I was also a huge fan of ME1, but i like this game much more.
10/10
9.4
Great graphics, music, atmosphere, story, characters bla bla
The only really things that let is down are the fairly average combat when compared to Gears and Uncharted despite the inclusion of powers
AND YAY FOR NO RUBBISH INVENTORY!!!!!!!

:O How could you have not played one of the best (if not THE best) game/s of this generation? |
MGS4 deserves that title not ME2 XD

Mass Effect 2 is probably my biggest gaming disappointment ever. 9 The Good -Production values: The game has a solid audio/video experience and great alien art to boot. -Performance: It runs at a solid clip on consoles, and my PC had no problems cranking out the max settings with some extra tweaks (high quality models all the time) at 45 FPS. -Good post-release support: Patches to improve stability, mini-games, Cerberus Network, and decent DLC are always a nice touch -Final mission gave you a feeling of actually commanding with consequence The Bad -Stripped out the loot system and exploration: IMO these were the best things about the first game. Sure the loot management was crap, but the fact that there was loot and it was customizable was awesome. I was living out my sci-fi dreams while driving around on alien planets! They even took out the Citadel... Sure, no planets to explore... but not even the Citadel? -The entire game is a side story arc that really goes nowhere. The climax (boss fight and mission of the Collectors) was complete turd on a stick. It was like the end of The Matrix: Path of Neo, except that game did it as a joke and acknowledged it as such. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMzpzX2s7T8 -The actions taken in the first game had little to no impact on this game. Things are mentioned or alluded to here or there, or a character model and voice are swapped... but that's it. They might come into play on the next game but it would've been nice to have at least one major decision come into play sooner. The Ugly -I bought the Collectors Edition of this game on PC and was determined to not open it before finishing the final exams I was writing at the time. I ended up playing it through twice in the two weeks I was writing finals. Needless to say, that was my worst term mark-wise ever. -The tears of disappointment I shed when I realized the game was not what I wanted at all. It has earned much of this high score out of sheer quality, rather than being fun. I think my affection for the first game also bleeds into this to get it to a 9. Otherwise I think it would be low 8 territory. -Miranda's face You know what? Screw it... 6. I give this title a 6. Good looks can only take you so far. Miranda's assets can attest to that. |
Reading your post makes me wanna re-think my overall score of the game. I'm changing my original score to 7 which is still good but disappointing.

Had his thoughts not been shared by some Xbox fans as well, this attack would make more sense. I agree, it wasn't as RPG-oriented as the first one, it just felt more action driven. Then again, according to you, he should own something on 360 to be able to even comment (which is quite frankly, ridiculous). |
I know this man longer than today and I was only hoping to get a response from him. Maybe I should have added a :p at the end, so I wouldn't have to defend my post.

I think you should implement a new rule, that states that every score above, say... 9.5 should also be accompanied by an in-depth reasoning for the score. This thread has been relatively spared from it thus far, but there have been tons of people in previous threads that gave the game a perfect score, said something along the lines of "tihs gaem is awesoem", and called it a day. And that shouldn't be allowed, in my opinion.
But it's your call.
