Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best Bioware RPG yet
I'm surprised how many low reviews this has gotten. Ignoring the DRM issues this is simply the best RPG that Bioware has put out. It's like playing an action movie. The voice acting is stellar and they really nailed character animations during conversations. I'll admit that the inventory screen is pretty poor and definitely a artifact of porting it from a console. You can only view a few items on screen at one time and it wasn't uncommon for me to have over a hundred items at any point in time ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great action RPG, but with a few technical issues
Since I do not own an XBox 360, I awaited eagerly for Bioware to port Mass Effect to the PC. I was not disappointed by the wait. Simply put, Bioware has created an amazing role-playing experience that expands on everything that is great about RPGs and adds some of the action and excitement from first-person shooters.
The first thing that struck me about Mass Effect was the loving attention to detail and serious thought that was poured into crafting a deep and immersive science fiction universe. ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - DRM kills the game
I am writting this review because I love to keep great games and play them years later. The DRM on this product prevents me from doing this. What happens when the game is no longer supported but I haven't used up my 3 activations? Since the DRM wouldn't be able to contact the "Mothership", again I am out of luck. No more strolling down memory lane. What happens if the game studio goes out of business, again, the game is no longer usable. What happens if EA goes out of business next week, everyone who ...

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - A great game with minor flaws, but DRM overshadows everything
Firstly, I must agree with other reviewers that the DRM scheme is a major turnoff. Neither EA nor Bioware have yet to specify anywhere just what circumstances these 3 activations are triggered. Bioware and EA should be ashamed of themselves for subscribing to a DRM scheme that only succeeds in punishing loyal customers and treating them as little more than criminals.

Now, onto the game itself. The voice acting is uniformly very good to excellent. The storyline for this game is exceptionally ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great Game
This is one of the better games. Be able to make choices and explore all of the game.

The only draw back is that no matter what you decide it does not effect the final outcome (this ia a minor draw back).
