Mass Effect
January 19, 2008

I sat down to finally play Mass Effect.
The game appeals to me on several levels: Style, Depth in particular.
The style is very clean, Science Fiction, reminiscent of the cover art of a lot of science fiction novels. It feels a bit like Star trek, but a bit less naive. It stands out from other science fiction shooters out there.
In fact the game isn’t really a shooter at all, it’s a living story, that you can explore. Several hours into the game the depth is staggering, there seems to be back ground info on everything. I think i’m going to be playing this for a while. I am amazed at the sheer volume of information available in this game.
