    What a way to end the series.

    If you have not payed Mass effect 1-2 I would recommend doing so first before playing 3. That way you get the full experience from start to finish. This series has a special place in my heart with every character and mission. Gameplay and graphics are solid for the Xbox 360. And shockingly the multiplayer is AMAZING! It is simple yet fun from start to finish.

    Great conclusion to the series, great stand alone as well. Great graphics and an excellent storyline that reacts dramatically to the in-game decisions you make. Owning/playing ME1 & ME2 will further enhance your experience with this game, but on its own it's worth a play. Pre-owned game was in good condition with some minor sratches that had no effect on the gameplay. Did not come in its original box (only a clear 2 disc case in good condition). It was worth the price since the game play is quite long.

    I really liked the first two Mass Effects. I waited awhile to buy this one because I heard such bad things about it. Well I bought, played through it, and mostly the complaints I heard were true. I do understand it is hard to maintain hype, and greatness, but EA made some mistakes with this one. I still think the graphics, sound, and the Characters were great, dynamic, and maintained consistency. The story though just seemed kinda boring, and one of the main enemies has got to be one of the cheesiest, worst looking character I have ever seen. I replayed the other two a few times, but it looks like I will not be replaying this one. One other complaint I have is: EA decided to require a code to activate multiplayer. I did not know that bought a used copy, and was given only a partial version of the game. I guess that is what I get for buying a used game, but wow EA, how about you alienate more gamers. As I said above the game was good but not great, I might have liked it more if I had access to every part of the game. Oh well.

    Good game with the best combat of the series. The leveling system works well and the power usage works well. The ending of the game doesn't use as many of your previous choices and it woul be nicer to see a more completed storyline.

    I know that there is much dissent regarding the ending of the series but I found this game engrossing and addictive. I won't say much regarding the end but had I not known about the controversy I would have been quite content. I love this series and enjoyed the gameplay and experience. This installment is mostly an action RPG that follows a fairly linear story. Those expecting a rehash of the first game might be a bit disappointed but anyone looking for a fun and fast paced game should check it out.

    Picked up for a refresher prior to next release. Took a long time to install on xb1, but you don't need the 2nd disc which is nice.

    Great game that builds upon the better mechanics of Mass Effect 2, but the conclusion will leave you kind of annoyed.

    I had a lot of fun with Mass Effect One, went for #2, but couldn't find it, but Best Buy had #3, so I went for it. I loved playing this game, very easy to setup. I would recommend getting #2 first, since you can grab your player from Mass Effect 2 and insert it with all of it's weapons and levels at the beginning of ME 3. This would've made it a little easier to play, but I recommend Mass Effect to anyone that like sci-fi and likes to shoot things.
