Synopsis

Synopsis
Earth is burning and mankind may not survive. A race of terrorizing machines, known only as Reapers, from beyond known space has invaded our home planet and left a trail of destruction in its wake. With civilization on the brink of eradication, an Alliance Marine, Commander Shephard, is the last hope for humanity's survival. He must rally civilizations from around the galaxy to launch one final mission to take back Earth and save the human race from annihilation.

Mass Effect 3 is the follow-up to the popular 2010 Mass Effect 2. Return to the role of Commander Shephard, and assemble civilizations of the galaxy to dispatch one final mission to fight back the invading forces and save the Earth from total destruction. Explore the rich, branching storyline with multiple endings that are shaped by your choices and actions during gameplay. Determine how events will play out, which planets to investigate and whom to form alliances with as you fight to eliminate the Reaper threat. Engage in epic sci-fi combat on many worlds across the galaxy as you fight to take back the Earth before it's too late. Lock and load and head into battle with guns firing or utilize cover to plan a more tactical approach. Command and direct your squad of allies to take out the Reapers, or decimate the alien race alone — the choice is yours. Fight against enormous enemies and intelligent foes that will keep you on your toes by challenging your best combat tactics. Customize your arsenal with powerful upgrades, including scopes, grips, barrels and dozens of additional attachments. With a multitude of decisions at your fingertips, Mass Effect 3 lets you choose your path to glory in an all-out war for your home planet.

Mass Effect 3 - Xbox 360 (59 out of 77)
Conclusion of epic tale.
4
Posted by: from oh on 05/15/2013This game concludes the trilogy that started many years ago. The game includes all decisions made and tailors the experience around those choices. The powers and combinations make combat feel the way you want it to, depending on your style. The characters are developed and feel like they matter. The ending is not the best, but it wraps things up in a way that feels complete. Online mode is fun if you have multiple friends or a party to play with throughout.

Yet another great game by Bioware.

Posted by: from Rex, Ga on 04/14/2013A Shocking End to the Mass Effect series. A great game for Mass Effect fans and easily understandable for those new to the series. The story brings you in depth with the universe and the reaper invasion. The multi-player is a great way to train and test the many different classes and species in the Mass Effect universe. There are son frame rate issues if your playing on older systems but other than that, a great game with high replay value.

Great conclusion to the mass effect series
5
Posted by: from Los Angeles on 04/13/2013This is a fantastic shooter role-playing game and the most refined game in the mass effect series. It allows you to carry over your characters and choices from previous games and they have actual influence on the story. The combat and abilities are fun to use and the story is engaging and inspires a great sense of scale and consequence. The storylines and characters are engaging. The multiplayer is surprisingly fun as well. The only negative about the game is that somewhat confusing, incomplete ending.
