A candle that burns twice as bright...
Having played and finished Mass Effect, I decided to pick up the sequel and continue Commander Shepard's story, hoping to eventually move to the much-anticipated third installment.
First thing I noticed was that although the gameplay mechanics were significantly changed, particularly ammunition usage, I got the grasp of the changes fairly quickly. The interfaces were also new, but with a refreshing "classic" edge.
Story-wise, I think it's a little too short. With the first game you recruited everyone in the prologue, bashed through lengthy missions on five planets and fought your way to the final boss. The other systems and their planets were encouraging, as well as the many assignments, which worked towards completing collections, getting codex entries and giving the universe a great depth of background. That was a winning formula in my books.
With the second game, this isn't so much the case: most of the game is / can be team recruitment, and the rest is short, semi-repetitive and hardly challenging. There are much fewer assignments and the whole exploring aspect has been scrapped in favour of orbital material scanning. Despite this, the background has maintained depth, if not built on it. One thing that made me smile were all the shout-outs to the events of the first game, such as returning characters and consequences of choices made (such as how the news reporter talks to you depending on your actions in ME1)
It may not be a perfect fit, but Mass Effect 2 is still a game that remains part of its established series.
SUMMARY:
Likes:
(1) Built on already impressive canon
(2) Still has some of the original flair
(3) Better character development
(4) Improved skill development
(5) References to events and characters from first game.
Dislikes:
(1) Complete turnaround of combat and exploration systems
(2) Felt much shorter

Good, deep game; well worth its money. I enjoyed it, you could too
I bought this game partly due to my growing interest in the Tomb Raider series, and also as it turned out to be a prequel to Tomb Raider: Underworld which I had recently bought.
Having played Tomb Raider Anniversary prior to the purchase of either of these games, I was immediately familiar to the play and graphical style of Legend. One feature I liked (though in a few cases also hated) was the intricate nature of some of the puzzles. One that I hated was figuring out how to move two blocks to a significantly higher platform to open a door; whilst one that I liked and found very interesting was not long after, where you could take one of a few paths to paths to reach a treasure or progress through the tomb.
Another feature that took me a long time and annoyed me a lot was a boss fight halfway through the game. Once I knew the answer it didn't take long to finish.
In ways this game feels significantly better than Anniversary. I can't really compare it to other games due to them being a completely different genre, but I suppose for quality of this version of the game it feels like it is close to par with games like Gears of War for graphical quality and depth of story.
In summary: It's a great game, but not on the same level as some of the big hits like Halo. It may be on a lower level, but it is easily one of the best on that level.
