Mass Effect has come a long way since November 2007 and now being one of the top ranked Xbox360 exclusives they are set to own the charts in January. Mass Effect 2 will face some serious competition but in the end, the gamers seem to have already chosen a victor and that's Shephard.
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.

What did you expect? Bad sales figures? Psshh. Mass Effect 2 straight up kicks ass. I only wish PS3 owners had the chance to experience it. There's always that one game on the opposing console you secretly want to play. Maybe two or three actually. For PS3 owners, this is that game. For 360 owners, it's Uncharted 2. As for Bioware, they've already made January their b*tch. With the preorders alone, my friend. So tell me, are you ready? Are you ready for some... Mass Effection? Well pucker up buttercup cause this sh*t is gonna take your inner nerdism for one hell of a mindbending, face-melting, cheek flappin, eye-watering, titty-twistin, ass-kicking, 50-hour rollercoaster ride comparable only to absolutely NOTHING you know. So don't even try it. It's going to be that badass. See you in line. 01/26/2009
Beta test this for us botsies.
I agree that this is an amazing game but it isn't an exclusive you dumbfuks! It's on PC aswell and the PC version I think is way better!
Mass Effect 1 sold less than average shooters like Lost planet, barely crossing 2 million. FF on PS3 outsold ME in 2 weeks in Japan alone. Might be a good idea not to hype this as a champion for the 360, as with such poor sales, it wont be long before EA is forced to port this to PS3
