Stunning presentation, engrossing storyline with multiple branches and options, great voice acting, nice blend between intuitive combat and role-playing, characterisation is second to none
If we're being picky, there's the occasional graphical glitch
It’s a good time to be a fan of role-playing games, with Skyrim, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning and now this, the best of the bunch. Whether you be a newbie or seasoned Mass Effect player, there’s something for everyone. And, dare we say it, the ri...

Cover system can still be frustratingly wonky, Enemy forces don't get harder so much as more numerous, Slight delay in response to Kinect voice commands makes them practically useless, Can be hard to tell what bits of the story you have the power to change.
Маститые программисты и художники из BioWare не подвели фанатов - начало игры масштабом действия не уступило прошлым эпизодам, закрутив сюжет «с места в галоп». Если в дебюте второй части Mass Effect ее создатели сначала убили Шепарда, а потом воскресил...
