Why are you reading this? You should be playing Mass Effect.
Times like this I wish I had a 360. I just got a nice-sized check, but I don't know if I wanna spend it all on a video game. :/
Mass Effect is 'simply', KOTOR to the Nth power in a differenct universe.
@;-
Soldiers: Don't give yourselves to brutes, men who despise you, enslave you, who regiment your lives, tell you what to do, what to think and what to feel; who drill you, diet you, treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder. Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men, machine men, with machine minds and machine hearts! You are not machines! You are not cattle! You are men! You have the love of humanity in your hearts. You don't hate; only the unloved hate, the unloved and the unnatural.
Soldiers: Don't fight for slavery! Fight for liberty!
The universe of Mass Effect needs to be made into an MMO. Bioware again did an excellent job with this game. The story, the worlds, the characters, everything feels fresh. It helps that the soundtrack to this game is one of the best.
