Mass Effect 3 (so far)



So far so good:

So I haven't actually beaten this game yet, but so far I'm really enjoying it. It starts off with a character creaation menu, which means you can create a new cammder shepard or just import your old person from ME1 or ME2, if this is your fist Mass Effect game, then you will have to start from stracth. Right off the bat, you can see the differences from the pervious games, for example the lighting is much better as well as the combat system. When in cover you can now perform dodge  rolls and quickly move from cover to cover. It's almost the same as Gears of War, but not quite as good. Another monumental change is that your character can now use any weapon class effectivley. It's the same as ME1 but lets say your class was a Vangaurd. Vanguards only are good at using shotguns and pistols, so try to use a sniper and it's much harder to use. However in ME3 it doesnt matter what your class is,your charecter can use any weapon they want, and they can also customize each weapon. The customization is pretty straight foward, find or buy a part go to a gun bench located on the Normandy (Ship) and add them on. Now you can only add two peices to a weapon at a time but this does not bother me at all. The space exploration is so much better than in ME2. In ME2 you had to upgrade the ship with stupid minerals you found on planents, and you had to use probes, which took forever to  do. I can honestly say i spent a whole day shooting probs into planets. Thank god they got rid of that. What really dissapointed me was the fact that all of your old crew from the old games were not actually part of your crew in this game. Like Mordin and Wrex make are in mass effect 3 and you go on missions with them, but they never actually join your crew. This was probably the only thing that really pissed me off about the game so far. I'll have more of the review once im done.
