Now, before I even get this started off, there is only one thing to say. This is the BEST game ever made. Sure, some of you might not agree with me, but I'm reviewing from a non-biased viewpoint. Bioware really outdid themselves with this one, here are some pros and cons.
PROS AND CONS
+Story
+Characters
+Blended RPG and Shooter Gameplay making an excellent Hybrid
+Length (30-60 hours depending on if you do all the loyalty missions)
+Side-Missions
+Cut-Scenes
+Epic Ending
+Loyalty Missions
+Value
+Player Choice
+Music
+Voice Acting
-Mining
-RPG Elements Underplayed
-Cerberus Network
As you can see, the Pros vastly outweight the cons. You will never know exactly what I mean by "Awesome" until you really look at and play this game. The Story is a very strong science fiction, the characters are very lifelike, the gameplay is an awesome blend of RPG and Shooter gameplay, the game is very long, there is like a million side quests that will take you a very very long time after the end to beat. There is also the newly added Loyalty Missions that really make you go in-depth with these characters. The ending is epic, the voice acting is professional, the music is the best in any game I've ever played, the player choice is staggering, and it has excellent value. All of the DLC released on the Xbox360/PC versions of the game is all completely free as long as you buy a new copy of the game and get your Cerberus Network code. Cerberus Network is the biggest problem with this game, if you buy the game used or rent it, you will not get access to the Cerberus Network unless you fork over $15 extra, and this is the only way you can get access to a small amount of free DLC. The big DLC packs are on the disk. This is still dissapointing to see EA pulling this one again, they did it with Battlefield Bad Company 2 and it seems EA hasn't learned from their mistakes when gamers roared with genuine distaste. But, don't let this keep you from playing this beautiful game
