The Normandy has landed on Tune of the Week!
This is the 25th Edition of Tune of the Week!
When choosing a game for this week’s Tune of the Week, I knew right away it had to be a game that achieves exquisite story telling, gorgeous visuals, unmatched gameplay, and a breathtaking soundtrack. That game had to be Mass Effect 2.
Jack Wall is the main Composer behind Mass Effect 2, he hired a team to help him create the all inspiring soundtrack behind Mass Effect 2. In an interview Jack Wall describes the Suicide Mission as “the best thing I have ever been a part of.”
One of the best things about the Mas Effect series is the companions you meet along the way. So here is a tier list of all the companions from Mass Effect!
To think that Bioware at some point was capable of doing games like this, you see those characters and remember them like good old friends, and now check ME Andromeda, Anthem, Veilguard etc and wonder what the hell happened.
some in andromeda are decent, I agree with peebee and Vetra being good companions. Except Liam he's trash tier
it's like bitch but your shirt back on, your not blue or spikey get away from me
RPGs are often huge, sprawling endeavours. With limited playtime, we have to choose wisely, so here's the best western RPGs available today.
"I started playing games yesterday" the List... Meh!
How about a few RPGs that deserve some love instead?
1 - Alpha Protocol - Now on GOG
2 - else Heart.Break()
3 - Shadowrun Trilogy
4 - Wasteland 2
5 - UnderRail
6 - Tyranny
7 - Torment: Tides of Numenera
And for a bonus game that flew under the radar:
8 - Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden
Not only glorious jank, but the idea that the story can completely change depending on what you do, or say, or side with, makes it one of the most forward thinking games ever. The amount of story permutation is the equivalent of a Hitman level but in Story Form. And it wasn't just that the story changed, no, it was that you met completely new characters, or missed them, depending on your choices. Made Mass Effect feel static in comparison.
Alpha Protocol was absolutely glorious, indeed. And it was, and still is, more Next Gen than most anything out there these days. In this regard at least.
Pity.

I just got Mass Effect 2 yesterday for PS3.
My favorite game of the series.
I even found the soundtrack to be far more superior than ME1 and 3.
My absolute favorite track from ME is the Galaxy Map music. So hypnotic!
Sent one of my mates to sleep so it must be good!
ME definitely peaked in ME2. My favorite runner-up track from the game has got to be "Normandy Reborn" which plays when joker reveals the Normandy SR2.
