An outstanding science fiction classic

Reviewed in the United States on July 18, 2014

Platform For Display: Xbox 360Verified Purchase

BioWare is the master of story-driven RPGs in which you interact with characters by choosing responses in a dialogue tree, sometimes leading to huge impacts on the narrative. They previously made the great "Knights of the Old Republic" (2003), perhaps the best "Star Wars" game ever made, and "Jade Empire" (2005), a terrific martial arts-inspired RPG set in mystical Imperial China, and here have made the equally great "Mass Effect," a sci-fi-themed third-person shooter that has you flying around the galaxy, exploring alien planets, and trying to solve the mystery behind the Prothean Beacon. Combat has typical shooter tropes (cover system, over-the-shoulder aiming), but what sets it apart are the different classes (Engineer, Adept, etc.), allowing for unique abilities between characters, and in working as a team with two other squad mates. When exploring planets, you pilot the Mako, a six-wheeled vehicle with a big turret on top that you can exit at any time. The Mako is disliked by some. I found the main problem with it to be the overly rigid surface of most planets, and the poor aiming of the turret. The idea behind it is a good one. There are lots of side missions to take part in, but most aren't all that interesting. It's the main story involving a rogue Spectre named Saren, an extinct Prothean race, and a deadly Reaper threat that keeps you firmly invested and anxious to see what happens next. The voice-acting and writing is something special. Few games do it as well as it's done here. There's also an amazing 80s-style electronic soundtrack that melds right into the background. As the first in a trilogy, the original "Mass Effect" can be a bit rough around the edges. Most of the content outside of the main story feels like an aside, lacking the same care and detail, and the shooting mechanics can be a little spotty. This first game also has a certain charm that the sequels don't. It may also have the best overarching story of the three.

One of Bioware's best! (No Spoilers)

Reviewed in the United States on September 3, 2013

Platform For Display: Xbox 360Verified Purchase

I'm onto the third installment of the Mass Effect series currently and I am appreciating this first game more and more. It is so unique in so many ways and has elements that are still better than their 2nd and 3rd Mass Effect counterparts. The story was very good for one. Drew Karpyshyn is a master with words and the team he worked with at Bioware for this (and the 2nd) Mass Effect lead to an amazing conversational/story experience! The pluses with this game are the: story, weapon variations, weapon upgrades, detailed level up system, and the ability for certain choices to affect ME2 and eventually ME3. The cons: Mineral gathering is a bit tedious compared to ME2. Graphics are great...until you play ME3 and it's almost unfair to compare the two. And that's about it! From start to finish, this game was phenomenal and had some emotional moments. FYI, the ending was reminiscent to KOTOR1- very epic and exciting and could end in different ways.

The story I should keep short, but It was very well made. Assuming you've read other reviews, you probably know what the plot is. Everything in the game had a purpose and everything you interacted with was significant in its own way. Again, the way the story ends in the first game is phenomenal- whatever choices you make. I don't remember if there was any DLC, but I highly recommend buying story/missions DLC when you can for this game.

Weapon variations were great! I don't understand why they strayed away from that in ME2. ME1 hit the nail when it came to weapons you could buy or find. In ME2 you can only find weapons- 2 or 3 per slot. And it goes 1=sucks 2=better 3=best. They're drastic differences that leave you with one best weapon for each weapon type. No uniqueness there. In this game, there are over 12 weapons per style (pistol, shotgun, sniper, assault) and they are heavily upgradeable with mods. Weapon modifications also differed. In ME1 you could apply mods directly to your weapon and they would gain a noticeable upgrade. In ME2 you purchase upgrades- boring. Also, weapons in ME1 had not ammunition- just an overheat gauge. In ME2 they introduced "thermal clips." In ME3 they kept clips. I liked the ME1 system so much better. With enough upgrades for your assaut rifle, you could easily have an assault rifle that would over heat in 10 seconds in the beginning of the game- to an assault rifle that would overheat in 2 minutes and pack a hell of a punch! That was pretty cool. OP, sure, but cool. Can't do that in the sequels.

The level up system was also really nice. You simply had more choices to apply skill points to when leveling up and could easily reach lvl 45-50 in the game (more levels= more powerful skills). In ME2 your level cap is reduced and it becomes extremely generalized what you can apply points to. They seem to have corrected this in ME3 and it is once again more detailed.

The choices you make in ME1 (particularly in the last 2-4 hours in the game (depends how fast you're playing), will carry over into ME2 and affect dialogue/story choices. It's pretty cool. On the xbox, the "import character from ME1" function is seamless and pretty neat. I played ME2 on PS3 and did the genesis story (since ME1 was not available for PS3 at the time). The choices you make in ME2 are supposedly not as impactful as those in ME1. But they both combine and add on to carry over to ME3.

The best game for each category:
Story: ME1
Graphics: ME3
Weaponry: ME1/ME3
Romance Scenes: ME1
Character Level up: ME1 (though close 2nd is ME3)
Gameplay/Combat: ME3 (more...FPS style, movement)
Dialogue Creativity: ME1
Companions: ME2 (much more choices for companions, different breeds, highly interactive, detailed graphics overhaul)

I think they did a great job with ME1 and dragged their foot in the sand with ME2 and tried too hard to come back to what made ME1 with Mass Effect 3. This is a classic. Get it and enjoy what created such a large fanbase. You will appreciate it more as you play the 2nd and 3rd installments.

Bioware's Jewel of Superior Story Development and Integrated Action

Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2014

Platform For Display: Xbox 360Verified Purchase

Considering this game is about seven years old or more, Bioware began the Mass Effect franchise with a strong story and engaging action pack theme. After playing Mass Effect 2 & 3, I have returned to play this game since 2007. What I miss from the sequels were the small branching off dialog choices, the individual story development of your crew went a bit further and the plot was anything but predictable. If you are debating on the merits of this game before you buy, then please be aware it is a immersive role-playing game (RPG) with an integrative third-person action shooter. The game definitely tilts more to the story, but you can skip side or character quests to focus on the main quests and get back to more action if you are so moved.

What more can I say, then buy and play it. Just know it is a story first, combat second. Bioware has a distinguished reputation for producing high-end RPGs that give you non-linear choices.

For those accustomed to Bioware, I simply say that I wish nowadays that Bioware would return to its older days with Knights of the Old Republic, Jade Empire, et al. I feel as we shift to more graphics, more fluff, more combat, we lose what the original concept of a RPG. Mass Effect 3 was a perilous balance (or imbalance) of story, combat, fluff, and cohesion (save the rest for the ME 3 review). The soundtrack of the ME series is good, I love M4 Pt. 2.

In short - It is great

Reviewed in Canada on April 8, 2014

The first Mass Effect is nothing short than spectacular - I played it in 2014 and it is still a great game - more like a Space Opera Sci fi movie.

It is a trilogy. I am playing Mass effect 2 now and some of the choices i made in this game changed my game in this one, Because you can import your hero from game to game.

There is the casual fighter difficulty level if you are not a Shooter amateur. You can just kill, explore and enjoy the superb story.

My son is very happy with this game, which works perfectly on his XBOX 1, despite being designed for the 360. I’m very impressed with the speed with which it got here! Happiness all around. I would definitely use and recommend this seller again.

The introductory into one of the best franchises in video games starts with a bang! Mass Effect is still one of the best games I have played ever.
If you have not played through this one or the other 2 sequels, you are missing out!

I love Mass Effect. Had to buy this one after beating the 2nd one two and a half times and the 3rd one. Now I gotta do it all over again so I can transfer my character all the way through them all!
