Mass Effect is Roleplaying Perfected
Mass Effect is an action role-playing game developed by BioWare for Xbox 360 and Microsoft Windows. The Xbox 360 edition was released worldwide in November 2007. The PC edition was released on May 28, 2008, published by Electronic Arts. The game takes place in the year 2183, with the player assuming the role of an elite human soldier named Commander Shepard, set out to explore a vast universe on his ship, the SSV Normandy.
Mass Effect's story primarily falls within the space opera genre and explores themes such as space colonization, intolerance, vigilantism, and artificial intelligence. The story, with its man-vs.-machine elements, has drawn comparisons to both Fred Saberhagen's Berserker novels and Battlestar Galactica. According to Casey Hudson, the project director at BioWare, Aliens, Blade Runner, Star Wars, and Wrath of Khan all served as influences for the game. (read more)

- I am just starting to play the game now. I think the whole choice factor during conversations is fun. You can either be a total jerk, or be understanding and kind.

- Mass effect was the biggest piece of shit of i've ever seen or experienced. That 6 inch radius of useless flat software was the biggest waste of money i've had the misfortune of purchasing. When the sequel comes out i'll be the first one to not get it. thank you and good day sir.
