Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - It's probably better on X-Box
All review numbers should be high. After all, nobody buys a game they expect to hate. So when you see low scores, that's often a sign of disappointment from someone who wanted to be a fan.

i have played the PC version of Mass Effect far enough to get all the characters but quit after that. The biggest reason is technical. i've double checked a couple of times now and my system exceeds the recommended specs and i still get single digit frame rates, even with all the options turned low.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A Fantastic Space Epic
I know there is a lot of controversy over Bioware's use of DRM and although I agree they should find a better way to protect against piracy, I can't fault the quality of the game over these other issues.

The story was also very good, even with the basic ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - SecuROM ruins it
It is very unfortunate that they have to give such a promising game the death touch that is SecuROM. There is absolutely no way I'm letting EA put Malware on my PC. Games like Sins of a Solar Empire and Galactic Civilizations prove that games can do extremely well without SecuROM. You have to have an activation key to get updates, but it never expires and you only have to enter it once as long as you have the same email address. Piracy is much worse for SecuROM games than others. EA is actually making things ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Never able to load game
Have a top end system, but never could get the game to load. Sucks to be me.
