I wasn't sure I wanted to play this game even though a lot of people told me it was good. I finally gave in and from the moment I picked up the controller I couldn't stop. I found myself playing this game until 4 o clock in the morning at one point because I was so hooked I lost track of time. I first played Dragon Age which was made by the same teams and even though I loved that game, I feel that this one is ten times better!
The character design is excellent. I love the characters and their back story, even though I didn't play the first Mass Effect (cuz I have PS3 not xbox), I really felt connected to them either way without having had opportunity to know a few of them from the prior game. The graphics are well done (even if at some points they look eh) I felt the general design was good and amazing to look at. The story is awesome and it's very hard to quickly explain what i liked about it. One thing that really fascinated me was that you could either be a Paragon or Renegade (which is kind of like good guy or bad guy), this involves you making chooses that raise your status as either. This factors into the end result of your game as well.
The way you can have the ending turn out is so unbelievable that I felt that this game was like playing a real life experience. At the end you will either have members of your team die or they will all survive. What goes into it is so complicated and interesting that I decided to just go about it without looking at tips until after. Member loyalties, who you choose to take certain positions and do certain tasks develops that and you will end up with an ending that is different from mine or the next. I ended up really sad because what I didn't want to happen happened either way, but it made me feel like I wasn't playing a game but watching a really well scripted movie.
The only things I didn't like that much were the upgrading system and the love interest choices. What I mean by that is even though I play games I don't consider myself a master gamer and I felt like the upgrade system took some getting used to and at times I didn't even know what to upgrade or if I should spend money on things that may or may not be useful. I also didn't like that you couldn't have a male Shepard have a romance with another male, but a female could have one with another female. This only annoyed me a little bit because that's what made me really like Dragon Age, it's something you don't see in a lot of games. With all that said I think the pros of this game outweighed the cons since A) you could have a male/male relationship in Mass Effect 3 and B) My problem with upgrading is my default not the makers.
So my suggestion is this If you like a game that has a lot of action, drama, and unexpected outcomes this is the game for you. I think anyone who liked Dragon Age or Infamous would like this game and hopefully whoever takes my suggestion will agree with me on how awesome of an experience this game provides.
