Mass Effect 3

After waiting months for this game to release, when it finally arrived I was over the moon I ripped open the packaging, quickly looked through all the extra's then slammed the disk into my PS3. As I waited for the day one patch to install I continued to look through the extra's and was delighted with them, with the day one patch all installed I started to play and was blown away by how much better the graphics to the game were (though the frame rate was not stellar it was still playable). I played for hours and hours, intrigued and astounded by the story line, the characters development and as always the amazing voice acting. After 1 week I got to the end of the game and that's when things started going down hill, the ending (without giving spoilers) was absolutely terrible, I was upset, bewildered and down right angry. 98% of the game was amazing, just for that to be destroyed in the last 10 minutes.

Being a big fan of ME1&2 I found 3 to be just as entertaining. (Despite the bad rap it seems to have gotten) Another awesome story with PLENTY of hours worth of gameplay that sucks you right in again. Lots of small improvements such as improved melee combat and also weapon upgrades, making this installment stand well out from the others. As always, awesome graphics, awesome sound effects, and an awesome storyline.

Wow, I have been playing this game all weekend and my brain is going to explode! Been playing with my husband – he does the shooting, I do the looking and the talking, has been working out really good. The graphics are great, the gameplay fast and intense, great character development. Love the way you have so many options with other characters in conversation.
Only problem is that there are a number of glitches – sometimes there are issues loading between screens or certain things won't work until you exit and go back in. Even had the enemies on slo-mo for one fight… handy but not quite right.
Can't wait to finish work and get back into it!

Loved the multiplayer, amount of weapons and replay value. Finding out what happens to the characters from the last games is intresting and even though the ending was a bit weak it still wrapped up an awesome trilogy.

Will Commander Shepard save the galaxy from the reapers-
The final instalment for the Mass Effect trilogy, set in 200 years in the future where humanity has found it is not alone and now an established member of a galactic community.
The previous games are about stopping attempts to bring about the return of a race of sentient machines, ‘Reapers’, who destroy all sentient life every 50,000 years.
However you don't need to have played the previous games to enjoy Mass Effect 3, as the story and dialogue is slightly more detailed to help add the back story of the previous games.
The game itself has a smoother game play, a challenging Co-Op mulitplayer mode and a extensive array of weapons, abilities and classes to tailor yourself a Commander Shepard who works for you.
The downsides would be that controls take sometime to get used to, and that if you are not so keen on heavy storyline motivated games you might find the game very constrictive.
In regards to the storyline, if you import your Mass Effect Two save you see some of the old characters come back and the repercussions of your actions, and decisions of previous games play into the story too.
The ending is much disputed, and all that needs to be said about it is that it is a great ending from a writers point of view with a good twist and resolution.
The ending though proves the point that sometimes an ending can not all ways be happily ever after.

A great game, with heavy storyline and in-depth characters and where your decisions really effect the story and if you will indeed be able to stop the reapers.
