One of 2010's biggest games has finally made it's way to the PS3 a year later...and it's about time! Find out what makes it such a masterpiece in our review!
One of the best things about the Mas Effect series is the companions you meet along the way. So here is a tier list of all the companions from Mass Effect!
To think that Bioware at some point was capable of doing games like this, you see those characters and remember them like good old friends, and now check ME Andromeda, Anthem, Veilguard etc and wonder what the hell happened.
some in andromeda are decent, I agree with peebee and Vetra being good companions. Except Liam he's trash tier
it's like bitch but your shirt back on, your not blue or spikey get away from me
RPGs are often huge, sprawling endeavours. With limited playtime, we have to choose wisely, so here's the best western RPGs available today.
"I started playing games yesterday" the List... Meh!
How about a few RPGs that deserve some love instead?
1 - Alpha Protocol - Now on GOG
2 - else Heart.Break()
3 - Shadowrun Trilogy
4 - Wasteland 2
5 - UnderRail
6 - Tyranny
7 - Torment: Tides of Numenera
And for a bonus game that flew under the radar:
8 - Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden
Not only glorious jank, but the idea that the story can completely change depending on what you do, or say, or side with, makes it one of the most forward thinking games ever. The amount of story permutation is the equivalent of a Hitman level but in Story Form. And it wasn't just that the story changed, no, it was that you met completely new characters, or missed them, depending on your choices. Made Mass Effect feel static in comparison.
Alpha Protocol was absolutely glorious, indeed. And it was, and still is, more Next Gen than most anything out there these days. In this regard at least.
Pity.

Mass Effect 2 would be a masterpiece if it had depth to the gameplay. But it doesn't. It's RPG light. I expect Mass Effect 3 will be even more stripped down. If you want a proper Western RPG you'll have to wait for Skyrim or Diablo 3.
Mass Effect 2 is Gears of war in space.
I am severely enjoying Mass 2. It has a world just as immersive as Fallout 3 was, but the cinematic quality of Mass Effect 2 is overwhelming. It's not even like a game anymore, but inside a sci-fi series. Like living out the entire farscape, stargate, and startrek shows in one long amazing experience.
@Ace: The gameplay is stripped down from the RPG style to a more actionTPSRPG. But the story and overall experience is still second to none. Makes it just as much fun as the first. I wouldn't mind seeing the Freeze element from KOTOR though, but they want the gameplay to be fluid. I love the dynamic dialog system, it's very fluid and keeps the interrupting away, which is annoying. I like hearing a conversation and hate that Fallout cuts off the person if you make a dialog choice mid sentence. I do fear that Mass 3 may loose RPG all together, but I have hope that it remains. I am curious to see what it will be like playing Mass on earth. I hope earth isn't all of it, though.
Most likely my favorite game this gen so far. It's one of the few series that I buy for the story. Also I like the gameplay, it is better than Gears
lol delusional fan boy its not better than Gears but it is better than the entire ps3 games and thats a FACT :)
i finished it today and loooooooooooved it. one of the best games i have played in the last years. the last chapter of it was so intens. couldnt get enough. =D i hope some addon are beeing released till we get the 3 part.
