Totally surprised at how much ME2 is owning Skyrim. Just to play devil's advocate.... shit, I sat here thinking of problems in ME2 for 5 minutes only to realise they were all from ME3. Carry on!
Bit of both. For the Portal 2 vs Batman match, I finished and loved Portal 2 and I'd only played and an hour of Batman but I think Batman should. I think it's a better game and influential more than Portal 2.
I didn't get why ME2 was so revered. While it was a good game, it bored me and don't remember if I even finished it. ME1 for me was the better game, and I had a blast playing it.
Fallout 3 was fucking amazing at the time, and kept me coming back time and time again.
Because the poll isn't between ME1 and Fallout3, this makes my decision much easier. Fallout 3 by a V.A.T. exploding headshot.
Oddly enough, I liked ME2 more, and tried to do everything I could in it. ME1 just felt clunky mechanics wise, and the inventory system was not fun to deal with.
I'm on the fence between ME1 and ME2. ME1 had a more interesting story, more interesting locations and setting the backdrop but it had some really shit combat and gameplay mechanics. ME2 pretty much fixes all of that, but with a slight hit to the story and discovery. I think objectively speaking however, ME2 is a much, much better game than 1 even if I personally enjoyed ME1 a little bit more.
I'm kinda surprised Portal 2 is taking it. I -loved- Portal 2, but I feel that when you think about the game of a generation, Portal 1 will always be remembered first for its impact. Sure, Portal 2 refines Portal 1 into a proper game but as a stand alone game, I don't think Portal 2 stands as one of the defining games of the generation.
