The GameDaily One-Minute Review

Even with a history packed with blockbusters, Bioware astounds with Mass Effect, a sci-fi epic with memorable characters and enjoyable shooting. The emotional weight by itself is worth discovering, as you'll face some hard decisions that will eventually piece together Commander Shepard's fate – along with the galaxy's. The production values are incredible, with breathtaking worlds to explore, a huge cast of memorable characters (Wrex is awesome) and hours of missions and side quests to delve into. When it's all over, you'll go through it again and find something exciting and new. Mass Effect sets a new standard for sci-fi gaming.
