    Great Game

    Mass Effect is the best game series ever made.

    And Mass Effect 3 sealed the previous statement in three words Scope, Scale and Epicness. Yes those word mean sort of the same ting BUT when you see a reaper the size of a mountain in the not to far distanse laying waste to Earths greatest citys its impossible to not to feel a grand sense of awe.

    The story has a sense of hopelessness to it that fits the theme to a tee, just think about it how would you feel if a force of nature took everything from you. You would be devestated, and playing the game i got that mindset. That is a powerful thing for a media to conway, not many games nor films can. I agree with the internett to a degree about the endings, both old and extended they did not fulfill my need for closure but i don't think any ending could have. Because this is a game you live and breath for a long time espesially if you play all three back to back like i did, and that would almost be like ending your own life (dramaticaly speaking).

    The gameplay did take a little while to get used to since it's changed a bit since nr. 2. But it does play very well, fluid and nice shooting. The leveling and skill systems work fine, no big surprises there. Kinect support works OK at times, nice to quick save and heal with it. Conversation system works as good as ever.

    Graphics and sound are top notch, as mentioned the amazing vistas with giant reaper action is intense and beutifull. The reaper noise on a good sound system is really creepy and very effective.

    All in all a fantastic game in an incredible series which must not be missed!!

      I would say I’ve been salivating over the arrival of this game since I finished Mass Effect 2, but that would be false. In truth I’ve been clamoring for the epic conclusion of Commander Shepard’s journey ever since I first took down Saren and Sovereign in the first Mass Effect back in 2007. To say that Mass Effect 3 has big shoes to fill would be an understatement seeing as the shoes have become as large as BioWare’s ambition was back when they first set-out to make an epic sci-fi stor...

      Mass Effect 3 Review: Fight or Die 0

      Mass Effect 3 faces the impossible task of wrapping up a truly epic story arc, improving core gameplay mechanics and satisfying all the fan groups of the series, but it has a damn good go at doing just that. The game has a huge amount of considerations to make, and I do not envy Bioware having to develop this colossus, but the final product is one that has many nervous of the quality that the game can provide. Has Mass Effect fallen into a mainstream design that abandons its roots or has Bioware...
