One of the top 10 games - of all time, among all video games.

Mass Effect has transcended beyond just its genre and is a superstar among games. RPG, Sci-Fi, Drama, Thriller, Action Game, FPS -- plenty of labels that could be applied, but how many games can excel at being all of those?

Let me tell you about the ending, up front. No, not a spoiler plot ending - the credits. You see, once you finally beat this game, and - this is a game you actually care about beating, and carrying through to the end -- at those final credits, you really see the reasons why this game turned out superbly. Simply put - an enormous team and resources (and manhours) were dedicated toward the development of this game. Thoughtful - even if you don't particularly like the way some aspects of the gameplay carry out, you at least can appreciate that the game developers did it well.

Having said that - Quality Control/Quality Assurance are top notch from this development team, and they brought on numerous game testers during development to help get this thing right.

Having said all this about the end - get to it, begin the game.
