Mass Effect is an adventure worth playing through as you become immersed into the story and characters. The story grips onto you and and takes through a hell of a ride that can only be experienced on the Xbox 360. I hear that Mass Effect 2 might become a cross platform title and if it does then hooray for Bioware because more people should enjoy this phenomenal title. Yes, I realize that this game came onto the scene many moons ago but I have a life...thank you very much. I will not spoil anything as far as the story goes as it's worth relishing every aspect of it.

Mass Effect took me about 35 hours to complete and thats with about 90% of the side missions completed. Oh how I longed for a longer experience but it is satisfying nonetheless. The graphics are some of the best around when compared to anything on any platform. One must adjust to a moderate learning curve but once you're 30 minutes into the game every aspect should be seamless and easy to navigate. This is a triple A title that is worth the price of entry and Sony fanboys/girls should be jealous that an experience like Mass Effect is sorely lacking from their library.

Fox News made a big stink over the "sexual images" that were destroying our moral society to the ground but they're stupid and if you believe anything Fox News spews out then you are stupid as well. The "images" are not X rated and worse has been seen on network television. Play this game and enjoy it.
