Well, given the angst the "true" fans have shown about how ME3 ends, you might save yourself some emotional trauma if you just go with doing the motion comic and starting at ME2.

I have ME2 and 3 for PS3, and while I get the occasional twinge of wanting to play ME I don't feel like I've missed out on all that much.

Yes there are people who think ME is kinda mediocre, especially against ME2. But there are others who feel ME is the only true RPG of the series.

If I wasn't such a trohpy whore I probably woulda got the whole ME series for PC. In that respect I'm a bit disappointed that Bioware / EA decided to put ME2 and 3 on PS3, because it tempted me away from getting the game on its original platform.

I think you should play it.

Out of the trilogy it has the heaviest RPG and exploration elements . To me it's the best game in the series.

Plus screw  mining planets for ores/minerals, this game has the Mako!

To infinite and beyond!

Really you liked the Mako? You might be the only person on our planet.

On Topic: The biggest two issuses of the first game are the already mentioned Mako and the crappy gameplay. But despite that its a very good game and you will enjoy. Its a warm up for the second and third installment which are the greatest RPGs ever made.
