      Nine years later I’ve seen this comment. I am completely the same. Very game of all time. Maybe biased, but the greatest video game ever made? I’ve loaded this up recently nearly a decade later on the legendary edition. I’ve just put my controller down and let this music play. What a masterpiece man. Damn I’ve gotta replay the trilogy again soon.

    I played the whole trilogy in one go, one after the other. Years after it came out, I didn't know the story at all, just that it was a really good game with lot of story and great game play.
    The first game, it wasn't the most refined, but I could feel it had since of "awe" to it. Then the conversation with Vigil happened, it really struck a chord in me. I knew there was even more waiting after that moment(excluding the fact there are 3 games).
    Then this came, not sure what to say, but the atmosphere, the scenery, the music, all just at the menu loading screen. There was something big at the end of this game I just knew it. Best ending to a game EVER.
    Finally, the third, where it all ends. Yeah, the endings meh, but that citadel DLC really puts the cherry on top.

      just did this a few weeks ago. A friend of mine had an xbox 360 he wasn't using anymore so he gave it to me, including his game collection, including all three mass effects. I could only play on weekends, but you'd better believe every single weekend was mass effect non-stop for like a month. What an awesome experience, nothing else beats it.

    The mass effect trilogy was the first game ever that made me cry. Played it when I was 12, and the ending of three made me cry simply because it reminded me of my dad who is in the military.

    I never knew what Mass Effect really was until about 10 days ago. I barely like the Sci-Fi genre nor I'm a big fan of RPG games. Having just finished Dead Space 2, I'm getting a bit more into Sci-Fi. Then I saw an ad of Mass Effect 3 in a game shop and thought why not give this game a try. But I thought if I'm ever going to start Mass Effect I'm going to start it from the beginning, so I started playing the first part and finished it today and now into Mass Effect 2 straight away! Amazing music!

      @@adrianvargas1380 Hey! Mass Effect is my favourite Sci-Fi franchise of all time, without doubt. I didn't buy Andromeda at launch due to mixed reviews, however, having played it 4-5 months after release, it holds its own compared to the rest of the franchise. It is not without its problems (which are well-documented), however I recommend it to any Mass Effect fan. But play the trilogy first. It is a shame the franchise has been put on hold, and we never saw out the story of Andromeda.
      Also if you like space games, Star Wars - Jedi: Fallen Order is one I recommend. It has a strong story, great game play and graphics. Different game to Mass Effect, but every bit as good IMHO. Looking forward to more Star Wars games from Respawn.

      I remember the first time I look upon ME2 characters when installing the DLC one by one... Each one feels interesting; looking at Grunt, Thane, Miranda, all of them have context in the story.
      Nowadays, diversity in games are abused without any context whatsoever, even ME Andromeda followed that route... I'm glad to see Dragon Age is not, and hopefully, Bioware can rejuvenate ME5.

    Like nearly everything about this game, the menu music for Mass Effect 2 was just perfect. It evoked all the themes of the game, from the fear of the unknown, the tensity of the high stakes, and the wonder of exploration over a background of dread tried to a sense of impending doom. Just an absolute masterpiece, Jack Wall deserves all the praise and accolades he's won, and more.
