Yes, and followed by Mass Effect 1. Also, I hope ME3 will take Mass Effect 2's place in my list.

It is. ME1 gave us a great world BUT as a game, it is a bit weak. Weak and stupid stat system coupled with subpar shooting experience...

KOTOR's good but.... dunno, it just doesn't have replayability for me.

DAO's good too BUT it is... heavy, slow.

ME2? Pretty much percfect. Moar DLC, and the ending could've been better.

Baldur's Gate 2 remains far and away the best bioware game. If you have not played the baldur's gate series, check it out. Its pretty "hardcore" RPG, but the combat is extremely tactical and deep and it is just a HUGE game. Its old but the "painting" style graphics are still beautiful.



I love ME and ME2, but they don't hold a candle to BG2. KoTOR was awesome as well...the only bioware game I didn't really care for was Jade Empire.

Of those I've actually gotten around to play, my fondness for each game would rank something like this:

Mass Effect
Dragon Age: Origins
Jade Empire
Mass Effect 2
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic


It's not a favourite. But I do like it. Very much so.

ME2 wins? Even on these forums?

On EVERY site, the user score for ME2 is higher than for ME1

GameSpot User Scores:
ME1: 9.1 360, 8.9 PC
ME2: 9.4 360, 9.3 PC


Please try and remember that just because something is awarded a higher score or a poll of 100 or so people say one thing is better than the other doesn't mean that qualitatively and objectively that thing (in this case ME1/ME2) is better than the other.

If you factor in the inclusion of all the improvements they made for the purely shooter crowd and all the complete removals of anything and everything that made it an rpg you get really skewed results.

One thing is very clear: whether you liked 2 over 1 or vice versa, the game elements and immersion intensive experiences that ME1 gave us are completely lacking from ME2, and have only been recently approached again with recent dlc like Sahdow broker and overlord. But even there, they're baby steps considering what was in ME1 and how they should have improved those elements for ME2 instead of removing them.

not sure... ME1 maybe... ME2 has just so many things that limit its potential... obviously EA greed is plastered all over it.

You know, when I picked up a copy of ME at the store, I was sure it couldn't be better than Dragon Age. I knew that I'd play it and probably get bored, and go back to DA without a second thought.

Oh man was I wrong.

But it did convince me to play more of Bioware's games. Finished Jade Empire and KOTOR, and I'm going to get the Balder's Gate series next. Everyone keeps warning me about the dated graphics and mechanics, but Bioware's games are too good to pass up. Love them all so far, but the ME series is my #1.

[Though picking between the first and second game? I can't even get past Eden Prime anymore, while I can replay the Omega-4 over and over again]

Mass Effect 2 is second, but the original Mass Effect is my favorite.

Mass Effect is my favorite IP from BW, bar none. I love both ME1 and ME2. I do not think either were perfect games and they both could have used improvements...but taken as they are, I loved them in spite of their faults and shortcomings.



I feel, regarding ME2 specifically, they took two steps forward and one step back in certain circumstances. The loss of many RP mechanics, the forced linearity of levels, the lack of substantial exploration, customization, and options, were all disappointments to me. Yet it did vastly improve many mechanics as well. I guess they like to give it a positive spin and call it "streamlining." I call it "cutting corners." :P



So it's a give-and-take and I love each for their own reasons. I hope ME3 will be a definitive culmination of the series bringing together the best traits of both games and bringing its own fresh perspective. If that made any sense at all.

Top 5

1. KOTOR
2. ME1
3. ME2
4. DA:O
5. NWN

If ME2 had the story and detail of ME1, I would have rated it much higher. I'm replaying ME1 again and there are so many wonderful little touches to that game that got lost in the sequel. It's a shame.

ME1 and DAO tie as my number 1 favourites, followed by KOTOR. ME2 would probably rank 7th or 8th on my list of favourite games. It doesn't have the same replayability for me as the others, the storyline is too weak compared to them.

Baldur's Gate. All of them, the entire Saga, tied for first. There is no RPG that even compares to Baldur's Gate in the slightest. I could play them over and over again and never be sick of it. I love it so much. The lack of people in this thread that have played the series is... disheartening,

Yeah, Baldur's Gate is pretty much epic win distilled into game form.  Although I will say that for sheer depth, Planescape: Torment does give BG a run for its money, although it's not a BioWare game.  PS:T breaks a lot of the rules of a traditional WRPG (fixed protagonist, fixed backstory, very low focus on combat) and works beautifully.

But in BioWare's games, for me ME2 comes after BG.  It's the only BioWare game other than Baldur's Gate that I've replayed as much.

No game has captured my imagination as much as Baldur's Gate 1 & 2. I've played BG2 at least 20 times over the years. Still, ME2 is a close second.
