To fantastic for words to convey!
Mass Effect, the hottest game to come out on the 360 finally comes out for the pc, the first question in everyone's minds is that is the game going to be that good? Well the fact is that it is worth buying for anyone out there.
Gameplay wise, its essentially the same as the 360 version, but with a few tweaks for the pc market, such as the obvious mouse and keyboard setup, and hud interface which gives you the power to order your individual troops around. The boys at bioware went into alot of trouble to make the experience on the pc priceless, this meant that the old inventory system of the game had to go, and replaced with a very effective version of the system, with the mouse and keyboard setup, they can make organizing your inventory less difficult, the RPG elements are a good blend with shooting action, the shooting is difficult until you level up, once you get the highest level, your aim will become less difficult, and you won't be as frustrated at taking down enemies, The Mako is still the same, but a little easier to control now, and the shooting itself is done well enough, but can get annoying to hit your foes at a low level.
The combat in the game is done very well, but can be annoying at times, this is evident because your weapons are very inaccurate at first stages, but as every RPG, you have to rise with nothing to something, as your progress through the game, and do side quests, you obtain credits which can go to very good weaponry and armor, the AI are sub-par, but not bad in any which case, they do there job, they take cover, use there powers effectively, and will beat you down if you get to close, but they are like every RPG AI opponent in games today, they will not flank, they just take cover and shoot back at you, they move alot, but at sometimes, it can get quite predictable, but shooting them dead is very satisfying.
The story of the game is done considerably well, this is the best sci-fi story created in the market, it has a power of sucking you in with this epic space story with characters that make you emotionally attached, characters like the battle scarred gunnery chief Ashely Williams, to the Bad-ass Krogan Wrex, to the renegade cop Garrus, the Voice actors also really bring the characters to life, everyone you talk to has alot to say, and you'll always find the conversation with that character to be meaningful and very interesting.
The Species of Mass Effect are done very well, some creatures look like homages to other Sci-fi games and films, like the turians, who, at times look like Covenant Elites, but every species has a unique perspective on life and possess an interesting culture that you just want to get to know.
The Graphics in the game are great on extra high detail, but requires a fair bit of horse power to run smoothly, there are a good number of framerate jitters and show stopping bugs (like the notorious no-save bug, or galactic map not working bug) that can hamper the unlucky ones enjoyment of such a fantastic game.
Over all, Mass Effect for the Pc is a great port of a great game, Bioware did a fantastic job of porting, and made sure that this isn't just a direct 360 port, which makes it special, if you ever have the money and time to play this game, buy and play it and get ready for the best cinematic experience ever.
