Ilos was my favourite in fact. The music, the planet, the atmosphere. And then the conversation with Sovereign and meeting Virgil. It was the moment where everything that the storyline had led up to fitted in place. By far my favourite mission.

I liked Noveria, but I ended up getting lost on my first couple of playthroughs. But it is all worth it for Wrex's epic line:

'They are fools. You should eat them.'

I'd have to go with almost everything in LoTSB first... the combat there was far more fun that most of anywhere else in ME2... everything from the settings to the music to the banter and of course the story / mystery itself.... it was a perfect combination of everything.

After that I'd have to choose the suicide mission... despite the boss being silly the whole mission leading up to it was a nervous, fast paced thrill... I still have good memories of how much I enjoyed it on my first playthrough... and while fighting a baby reaper felt goofy, the ending was satisfying and so was 99% of the final mission leading up to the last scene and dialogue.

LotSB, Suicide Mission, Tali's trial, Virmire, saving the citadel.

It generally seems that LotSB, Illos / end run and the Suicide Mission are the best missions of the series, if these sort of threads are anything to go by. Noveria is good, but not quite up there with those three imo.

Of the series so far, LotSB is my fave. Great pacing, combat, banter, music, eclipsing most of the other ME2 missions in my eyes.

Otherwise, Ilos and the subsequent Battle of the Citadel in ME1 come a close second and third for me, great settings, conversations and music.

I didn't like Noveria. Kept reminding me that I hate snow and the rachni were just as annoying.

No, that spot goes to the battle of the Citadel for me.

The suicide mission, Ilos, Tali's loyalty mission are my favourites. In that order. The only wish the SM was more challenging to keep all the squaddies alive. I really liked Samara & Thanes loyalty missions to, big change of pace from all the shooting. LoTSB & Arrival were great fun to though.

I liked that one side mission in ME2 where there was an infinite wave of husks. Made so many new friends there. It was like a rave party.

Suicide Mission. The music, the cinematics, the atmosphere, The music, The music.

They need to continue the MUSIC trend in ME3. It will add like a whole other dimension.

Otherwise I'm trading it back; is what I would say if I were one of the raving lunatics that plague the forums.

Virmire. One of the few times they pulled off a mission with an intense atmosphere without hype-machine. It really came to life, no boss required.

Also loved Arrival "last stand" - Shepard's biggest test in the series IMO.

-LotSB: great music, the first time we can see a "human" Shepard and with a different view of the renegade Shepard, a pesimistic soldier who is tired. Simply loved it.

-Mordin and Tali LM: great balance between story and character development and combat.

-Suicide mission: loved that Shep can order his team and assign specific task to each one.

Noveria, the best? Not even in my dreams. I'd give it to the Suicide mission. Mainly because of the music.

Correction Number 1: Sovereign is encountered on Virmire, not Ilos.

Correction Number 2: The prothean VI on Ilos is named Vigil, not Virgil.

Correction Number 3: Contrary to popular belief, cats cannot become space marines and say "Dayum Shame" in a heavy southern accent when things do not go their way.

I don't disagree with your post, except on this point.  The most dramatic moment in the ME series is the background assignment, "I Remember Me".  I found myself choking up while talking with Talitha while at the same time being amazed that a video game was having such an emotional effect.

Just sayin'.  Back to what you were talking about.

I don't remember that one. It's one of the background specific ones, isn't it?

Lair of the Shadow Broker probably gets top honors. But I'd like to throw Tali's Loyalty Mission in there as well.

Good exposition on the Quarian race, as well as good dramatic writing and a very intriguing choice (that sorta gets ruined by the Para/Rene system, but oh well).

yep. this is a colonist-shepard exclusive. the quest is given when shepard takes the elevator down the dock in the citadel, if I remember correctly.

LotSB and SM are awesome no doubt about it.

But Virmire has the best moments for me in the entire series.
The death of Kaidan or Ashley. I always feel bad when I leave one of them behind.
The talk with Wrex. The first time I was scared ****less.
Kirrahe's epic speech... Shepard is not even close to Kirrahe in the SM, not at all!
The first talk with Sovereign and Saren confrontation.
And a big explosion.

Virmire has it all!

Yes.  It is the Colonist background assignment, and I almost missed it as I had only done play-throughs as a Spacer.

You speak with a confused woman who has just been rescued from a life of slavery with batarians.  Her story and mental state are tragic and gut-wrenching.

(Did I say 'speak'?  I mean, 'talk down'.  She broke away from her rescuers and grabbed a gun.  She's terrified and has no memory of being able to think for herself.)

Virmire is my best mission. It had that whole sense of urgency, a pretty planet and Ashley dead at the end...As for ME2 I think Horizon was one of my favourites.
