Saving the universe

I don't know what it is about me trying a game, hating it for several hours of gameplay and then suddenly, inexplicably getting hooked. It was like that with Assassin's Creed, and Bioshock - and now Mass Effect. God am I hooked on Mass Effect. I think maybe I finally realized it's not so much a dreary first person shooter as it is a fantastic Star Trek game (not actually Star Trek, obviously, but darn close).



The plot is good (I did get goosebumps meeting the Rachni queen), the voice actors are good, the music's good, the inventory system is absolutely terrible, but you can't have it all. I've got a female Shepard with a buzzcut and a badass scar and it's all good. It's going to be so fun following her progress through three games.

rambling: games
