Review: Mass Effect 2(360)

+'s
-improves on the original in every way (graphics, frame rate, controls, inventory management and story)
-really aren't any side quests or frustrating missions anymore
-tons and tons of hours of gameplay (all of which is very, very good)
-six very different character classes to choose from (all with enhanced abilities)
-outstanding writing and characters
-fantastic music and sound (perfectly fits the game)

-'s
-scanning planets can be monotonous
-still some weird bugs (standing on platforms that aren't there, not being able to turn while moving forward, etc.)

Neutral
-importing a ME1 character is not quite as easy as it should be (I had to load my ME1 save and complete the game gain before this would work)

Overall, this is my favorite game I've played by BioWare and one of my favorite RPG's ever. I could barely put this one down, and I couldn't wait to play it again when I was finished.
