Absolutely stunningly epic! The best game I've played in the last 10 years and this gen so far. Alan Wake and Red Dead will have to be really special to beat it as GOTY. I've put almost 50 hours into it, and I've still a bit to go.
I dunno, I'm finding the missions a bit repetitive. Walk into an arena. Shoot things. Walk into another arena. Fight a boss. The end... Although it is a big improvement on ME1, in my opinion.
ME is all about the characters and the story as well as the world they inhabit. It's rare to play a game where you feel guilty about making a decision whether or not to let one of your squad members execute someone. It's just like reading a very good book, only you're actually in it making the choices. The same could be said for Final Fantasy 7 when it came out all those years ago.There's only been one story driven game since then that's had the same kind of character involvement, and that was Shenmue, that is until ME 1&2.
