Mass Effect Review

So, in the end Mass Effect is yet another fine effort from Bioware, and overall is a top notch game. However, I have to say that for me - and I fully admit this could be chiefly down to the nostalgia factor - I enjoyed KOTOR more. When playing that game a few years back I was continually astounded by what was on show, with every new scene, character and shocking twist feeling truly special. Yet, as much as I wanted to feel the same with Mass Effect it never seemed to kick in. Yes, it is still a good game - I have reiterated that countless times - and yes, at its core it's laced with immense quality, but unfortunately as you play you can't seem to shake the feeling that it all could have been so much better. The tone of the game is just about perfect, but was it to much to ask for a bit more structure?
