Mass Effect (Xbox 360)

Description
Set 200 years in the future in an epic universe, Mass Effect places gamers in a vast galactic community in danger of being conquered by a legendary agent gone rogue. A spectacular new vision from legendary developers BioWare, Mass Effect challenges players to lead a squad of freedom fighters as they struggle against threatening armies to restore peace in the land.


Mass Effect is the first in a trilogy of games with an overarching story. As the first human Specter – sworn defenders of galactic peace – your mission is to halt the advancing armies of a legendary agent gone rogue. But as you lead your elite team across hostile alien worlds, you will discover the true threat is far greater than anyone imagined.

      Mass effect is a role playing game in which you are Commander Shepard set to adventure through all of space to complete different missions and unearth many secrets while meeting many new aliens.

      The first thing you notice in this game are the great graphics. They are very smooth and the characters have realistic expressions. One of the great things about this game is that you control your character. What He or She looks like, their class, and their whole life story is up to you.

      You are also able to control all of your conversations, either playing the bad boy role or the good guy. One of the things i liked about the game is the freedom you have. While doing different missions you can sidetrack and do side missions.

      One of the bad things is that sometimes the game can be to drawn out at some parts but the story line is really great and intriguing. The combat is pretty good, all the different weapons, and combat skills. You can upgrade your character and other people in your group.

      OVerall I give this game 4 out of 5 stars, it could use a little work, and may need some time to adapt to but its really good and fun, give it a try and it should work out for you.

      Just take 2 minutes and read this. This is very EASY to do! It literally takes 10 minutes to setup. Simply follow the steps below. I promise you, this is 100% real. I wouldn't jeopardize my eBay account status if this was a scam. My feedback is real and I will answer you on any question! Here is what you do. Click on the link below, register, pick an account type (referral is the easiest) and complete just 1 offer (Very important that you complete the 1 offer otherwise your account will sit in limbo until you do).This is not like other sites where you need to complete one offer on 2 or 3 different pages!!! And a lot of these offers are FREE trials with nothing else to buy...No commitments!!!

      There are plenty of cool offers to choose from such as Blockbuster online, Stamp.com, Netflix, Gamefly which are services you would regularly sign up for anyways and their all secure networks, why not use them to get a free PS3 System or cash (I did the Dermacia.com for a 30 day free trial and it only cost me shipping & handling and i got credit for it the same day). Look at the offers and choose the one that works for you. After signing up and completing your one offer, simply refer 8-13 people (depending on the FREE prize you choose) to do the same under your link (just post the same thing as I have on eBay, and you'll get your referrals before the auction even ends.)

      Then they will ship your PS3 System or your selected item for free, I chose the PS3 80gb System. No Joke, 100% REAL!!! The reason these companies make money, is because most people don't bother getting all the referrals. All you have to do is post it on EBAY! They use us as advertisement by word of mouth which saves them tons of money which goes toward yours and my free gift. These are legit companies such as Blockbuster, Netflix, Gamefly etc... You can copy my listing if you want. You must use your own authentic link though. You will get your own personal link after your orders placed.

      Step 1: Copy this link and go to it http://www.YourPS34free.com/index.php?ref=4312705

      Step 2: Sign up and chose an account type (Referral is the easiest and best).

      Step 3: Complete just 1 offer (like Blockbuster or Stamps.com) and refer up to 13 people to do the same (use eBay! Do what I did, copy my ad).

      Step 4: Receive your PS3 System for FREE!!!!!!!!!! (Even The Shipping Is Free!!!)


      For proof that this is for real, click on the link below. It's the company that is behind everything.

        Great Story; Great Game

      Well, I suppose that the best thing about this game is that if it were a movie or story by itself, it would do pretty well. The plot is solid and the characters engaging. Add to that the fact that it is interactive (a video game instead of a movie) and you get a terrific experience. If all there was to this game that you explored space and watched intense battles and chose the course of the story as it unfolded, it would have been a rewarding experience. Now mix in the RPG elements and solid game play in battle and you have a gaming experience that is complete in its enjoyment. Definitely worth at least 2 or 3 play throughs. Highly recommended!

      I completely LOVE to effects. Using biotic lift on a group of enemies, watching them float helplessly, then force pushing an explosive barrel into them, then commanding my squad mates to fire ice rounds at them watching the whole group fall frozen to the ground shattering on impact. Basically using all the different customizable weapons along with the good amount of biotic and tech abilities, all with incredible effects, make this game so exciting to play many times. The only thing thats wrong with the game is that it tends to lag quite often. Although it does not make the game horrible to play, it does get annoying on occasion. Also, I would like to see more ability to explore more planets in more systems. There are many star systems and clusters in the game which makes it seem astronomically huge at first, but you soon will realize that only one planet in each system can be landed on. Although there are the few negatives I have mentioned, I still give this game an excellent rating because of how much fun it is. The negative aspects of the game do very little to make the game less fun. In all honesty, this game is more than worth your money if you like any of the following: third person shooters, Knights of the old republic, any type of sci-fi such as star wars or battlestar galactica, etc. I hope this review helps and have fun gaming!
