Mass Effect 2 is 1st when it Comes to Best PC Games of All Time

A Game that Will Change How You Think About Video Games

Nick Van Sandt
Most of us in this day in age know and have played at least a couple video games on the computer, whether it be solitaire, pinball, Tomb Raider, or a more recent game such as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. However, every once in a while, as with the music and film industry, an absolute masterpiece takes everyone by surprise in the world of video games. In this article I would like to review a recent PC game that I feel is arguably one of the best PC games of all time. I'm talking of course about the action role-playing game Mass Effect 2 that was released in late January 2010. This game cost about $50 Dollars and can also be played on console systems. Make sure to check to see if you're computer can play it before you buy it as the system requirements require a computer with higher end hardware.

I don't consider myself to be an avid video game player but I have played a fair share of video games, and this has to be one of the best games I have ever played. This game can be summed up in one world and that is quality. It is amazing to see the amount of work that has gone into this game if you pay attention to all the details such as background noise, the voice recording, and documentation. The game is basically a Sci-Fi adventure with a whole universe to be explored. It portrays a futuristic universe that is less corny and more realistic than that of the Star Wars that we all know. The story line, voice acting, music, and attention to detail are amazing. The plot and characters are great and as the player you are fully immersed in it being able to see and hear your surroundings. There is a main plot in which you, as the main character, embark on a supposedly suicidal quest but there are many subplots that can also be explored.

In conclusion this game is a must play for experienced and non-experienced gamers. It offers a little bit of everything and is a must for anyone who likes sci-fi or wants to try out a new video game. It has a well developed plot, great dialog and voice acting, it has intense first person shooter moments, and it allows the players to make crucial game altering decisions. The only negative aspect to this game is that it isn't longer and that once you play this game you won't be able to go back to playing the lower quality mundane PC games. Not to worry though because in a couple years the sequel Mass Effect 3 is coming out. Mass effect 2 is one of the best PC games out there but don't take my word for it get out there and give it a shot and you won't be disappointed.
