Bit late as usual, I've gone through first Mass Effect the other day and I'm about to beat Mass Effect 2, both games are simply outstanding, I even dare to say this was one of the finest gaming experience I had in a long time.
Now, as strange as it may sound, I actually prefer the first one, I'm also probably the only one. While Mass Effect 2 is indeed a huge step forward, to me it simply wasn't exciting as the first one, also, customization, and exploring is vastly superior in first Mass Effect. While Mako does behave like a rubber ball it's still more entertaining than scanning planets in Mass Effect 2. I'm also disappointed with almost noneexsistal customization of your companions. Mass Effect 2 however features tons of little details, your choices carry bigger impact, locations aren't repetitive as in first Mass Effect, better AI, polished and more dynamic combat...
I hope Mass Effet 3 end's up with best of both.
As for the topic, what do you think of the series? Which game do you prefer, why, and what do you expect from Mass Effect 3?
