I started playing Mass Effect a few weeks ago on the 360. I was a little Leary of playing a game which combined 1st person shooter with RPG, I was not sure how well the two would combine in game play. I’m kind of a traditional turn base combat system fan, like the type found in such games as Final Fantasy VII and Lunar. It took me a couple hours to get the hang of this combat / RPG system, and I gotta say it works very well with this game. Bioware did a great job at designing the game mechanics, and storyline .
I enjoy playing the game so much that I went ahead and downloaded the ” Bring Down the Sky ” expansion pack to keep the fun going. This game does offer a lot of replay ability since you can choose different classes that will drastically alter how the game is played, and how the missions are accomplished. I hope that Bioware will continue to release expansion packs for this game, and that the don’t screw up the story and game mechanics when they release the next Mass Effect game.
I highly recommend playing this game either on the Xbox 360 or on the PC. Commander Shepard is waiting

I saw the system requirements are within my computer’s abilities. I may have to try this one out. I’m not a big RPG fan but the action aspect of it may work for me.
