    Mass Effect 3

    Mass Effect 3 is an excellent game by Bioware. It stirred a lot of controversy about it's ending, whether you loved it or hated it, it is still an excellent game. Here is my detailed analysis of this game.

    The Story

    This is the best story of the trilogy, depending on the way you played certain characters will live or die. Your choices throughout the series affect the experience you have playing the story. It successfully wraps up the story of Commander Shepard and does so in an epic way. The game also allows you to form relationships with some characters. It is intresting seeing how the story plays out and the whole thing comes together in the end for one of the most controversial endings of all time.

    The Gameplay and Combat

    The gameplay for the game is really good. The AI is excellent and very responsive. I really enjoyed the combat system, it made the experience more fun. If the gameplay hadn't been as excellent as it was then the game wouldn't have been as enjoyable. Also, weapon customization is really good this time around too.

    The Multiplayer

    The addition of competitive multiplayer is really cool. Seeing how the different classes of characters work together in multiplayer is real intresting, it makes you think twice about choosing your class. Co-op is really good too, it's actually one of the best features of the game. I think that the multiplayer made the experience last longer than if it was just single player.

    In conclusion, Mass Effect 3 is an excellent game with awesome multiplayer and story modes. The things I stated above are reasons I gave ME3 a 5 out of 5. I just wish more people had realized how amazing it is and would stop whining about the ending and start thinking about the epic story. I like the ending however.

      I would say I’ve been salivating over the arrival of this game since I finished Mass Effect 2, but that would be false. In truth I’ve been clamoring for the epic conclusion of Commander Shepard’s journey ever since I first took down Saren and Sovereign in the first Mass Effect back in 2007. To say that Mass Effect 3 has big shoes to fill would be an understatement seeing as the shoes have become as large as BioWare’s ambition was back when they first set-out to make an epic sci-fi stor...

      Mass Effect 3 Review: Fight or Die 0

      Mass Effect 3 faces the impossible task of wrapping up a truly epic story arc, improving core gameplay mechanics and satisfying all the fan groups of the series, but it has a damn good go at doing just that. The game has a huge amount of considerations to make, and I do not envy Bioware having to develop this colossus, but the final product is one that has many nervous of the quality that the game can provide. Has Mass Effect fallen into a mainstream design that abandons its roots or has Bioware...
