Sure, there aren't enough interesting alien species to give the sense of space opera that it wants to convey, sure some of the story is ripped straight out of other sci fi, but this game was fun as hell.
I just wish there were more parts of the game that were as awesome as the last 2~3 hours of the game though. Because holy crap, playing those final hours with settings maxed on the PC, it was epic, really freaking epic.
I didn't do any side quests, basically went at it like a movie or something, you know, the universe is about to blow up, who gives a fuck about what some dude wants from another dude, it kinda breaks the immersion, since the objective is so important, so i just went main quest only, and i loved it.
I can't wait for Mass Effect 2 now, i really hope EA puts the budget behind it, and allows Bioware to maybe do more epic moments throughout the game, and not leave it all for the end, not that the rest wasn't fun, but still.
Alien sex was awesome...again. Anyway, i hope Bioware follows up my ending for the sequel.
