| I just finished Mass Effect on x360 and thought the story was ok. It wasn't bad or cheesy, but just ok; a lot may have to do with the game being part of a trilogy so a lot of stuff isn't fully fleshed out. The main game itself is also kind of short at around 10-12 hours, I did all the side quests and finished at just a tad under 24 hours. Worth a rental or used/cheap buy, I wouldn't pay $60 for ME though.
Was just starting assassins creed but quit after 10 minutes, the game starts out with some retarded starter story (you are some kind of assassin in the present and reliving memories of the past), I was really expecting a "you are a 14th century assassin" straight up story instead of this scifi shit. I'll get back to it later I'm sure.
Did enjoy GTA4, imo GTA:VC or even Liberty City was better storywise but I enjoyed all the side quests and main story of GTA4.
Gonna mix it up with Bioshock and Star Wars Lego too, try those if you haven't - played a few mins so far of Star Wars Lego and its AWESOME (heard Indiana Jones Lego is great too). Also just recently finished Portal and HL2 Episodes 1 & 2 (played HL2 years ago but never played the episodes), all were really fun. Loved Portal, I finally get all the cake and companion cube references people make (haha)
if you never played em go back and check out Planescape:Torment and all the Monkey Island games. |
