The game is laced with little touches to make us fans smile casting genre legend Lance Hendriksen (Bishop, from Aliens) as Admiral Hackett, presenting narrative parallels between Prothean beacons and the monoliths in 2001, and let's not forget the Thorian. ME combines the spectacle of Space Opera with the explorative spirit of Science Fiction. So for a cool science fiction role playing action game I can not recommend anything better than this. The main story has great points, I especially like the part where Shepard and the true enemy have their first meeting. You can talk to various people at times and pick up missions that can be simple get an item missions or be more complicated to the point of going to multiple planets and eliminating an enemy threat. However, I loved the role playing elements which sort of were like Knights of the Old Republic only a bit better. I also did not care for the driving around on planets much at all.

It is like Gears of War, just not quite as tight. The graphics are great, the story interesting, the fighting so so. However, you must go through a lot of trials as aliens called Geth are on the attack and another Spectre agent named Saren has gone rogue. He is trying to become the first human Spetre in a strange and vast intergalactic government system. The story has you as Shepard, who has a default look to him or you can make him or her to your tastes.

It is a role playing game through parts of it and a Gears of War shooter as well. This game was not quite what I was expecting and was for the most part a lot of fun.

I hate maps in bioware games
