GameZone - Mass Effect 2 Review (PS3)

"The pinnacle of Bioware’s many years honing their craft, Mass Effect 2 is one of the most important and enjoyable games ever made. The PlayStation 3 port may be a greater value by incorporating the bulk of available DLC into a single package, but it is still vastly inferior to the experience available on the Xbox 360." B. James, GameZone

8.5 for PS3 (even if it has extra stuff and goodies)
and
9.5 for X360 (because it first came out on it??)

OhReginald5618d ago

its because Mass Effect 1 isn't available, just because that they say its vastly inferior to the xbox 360 version.

mrv3215618d ago

That is single handely the stupidest reason in the known universe to reducde the score.

It's like saying

Fable 2 and 3 are 1/10 because you can't play them on 360.

Or the Fallout 3 sucks because the original was PC exclusive

Or Call of Duty 4 is the worst online shooter because Call of Duty 1 was only on PC.

YOU REVIEW THE GAME BASED ON HOW GOOD THAT GAME IS.

LunaticBrandon5618d ago

Last time I checked Call of Duty wasn't a story heavy game loaded with choice with the intention of it being a trilogy with things carrying over from game to game.

Blacktric5618d ago

@LunaticBrandon

Well said. That's what some people are ignoring when they think the PS3 version. BUT, that shouldn't be the reason to drop 1.0 from the original score. 0.5 should've been enough.

TomFG5617d ago

1 whole point doesn't mean vastly. Don't forget, just because this package contains all the DLC, ME2 is still a year old game, and without your ME1 choices the game plays far differetly to what you'd expect. So many choices you made in ME1 have an impact on ME2, and losing that truly changes the game.

no need to play since i already beat it on 360

TheSanchezDavid5618d ago

I need this game and I need it now!

TheSanchezDavid5618d ago

I know. I just don't have it in my possession. I need to go out and buy it. =P

RonRico5618d ago

This is like when Oblivion came out on the ps3. Except everyone agreed it was actually better on the PS3. Which it was.

topgeargorilla5618d ago

Never liked ME1 enough to finish it, so this could be the perfect game for me.

Silly Mammo5618d ago

Same here. I bought it for the PC and while I liked it, I lost interest in it and never finished.

Bro missing companions: Legion, Grunt, Samara/Morinth, Javik, EDI

anast557d ago

Legion, Zaeed, and Jack are my favorites.

RiseNShine557d ago

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.

anast557d ago

They lost too much talent.

IAMRealHooman557d ago

some in andromeda are decent, I agree with peebee and Vetra being good companions. Except Liam he's trash tier

anast557d ago

Liam lol I can't stand that dude.

IAMRealHooman556d ago

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

DustMan805d ago

Loved Alpha Protocol in all it's glorious jank. Great game.

SimpleSlave805d ago (Edited 805d ago )

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.
