New series by Bioware exclusive to the 360? That was enough to get me interested, and after that it was a no brainer.

I saw a picture of Wrex. Coolest looking character ever, must play!

[Metalunatic]

I saw it on the used-shelf in a local gamestore and wondered if it was any good. I headed home to find out more about it. I watched the trailer, went back to the store and bought it. Been hooked since.

my brother bought ME2 for the ps3 because one of his co-workers said it was a good game and it was on sale. then i played that like 5 times... then i decided to go out and buy a xbox and ME1&2 for the 360 hahaha. mass effect is literally the only games i have for my xbox still XD

ME2 Demo.
Was amazed (the saving Joker scene alone...). I saw a new chapter in game history.
Went out and got ME1 then played ME2.
(ME2 didn't really have the a sea-worthy plot [full of holes], but it was still fun, and certainly a link in the evolution of games if not a shining example.)

I first played Mass Effect on Christmas of 2010. I can't seem to remember what started that initial interest (it may have been Game Informer), but either way I received both games as gifts. I was blown away.

Some guy I hooked up with was like, "check on this game that is going to come out in the fall". So i downloaded the little video off xbox live and I was like, "oh man that looks cool". And over the months I saw more about it. When it came out I got it and played it like crazy. Hooked ever since.

[ChuckNorris18]

played mass effect 1 back in december of 07 at a cousin's house, thought it was pretty cool. I ended up getting some money for my birthday about a month later, bought it and was hooked. logged in about a total of 400 hours between both games.

Friend of mine told me I had to check out this trailer on gametrailers. Bought the game the first week it came out on Xbox360.

I'm an old Bioware fan, started with Baldurs Gate in 1998, but after the horrible Dragon Age DLC and devastating awfulness of Dragon Age I lost faith in BW's ability to make good games. 
DA2 didn't even remotely meet my expectations and it left me frustrated and angry, looking for another game to wash away the bad taste two BSN friends suggested me to try Mass Effect 2. 

I wasn't a Sci-Fi fan but I gave it a try anyway, just to try out something new and see why fans are so crazy about this game. Totally loved it, got pretty much all the DLC for it and made about 4 playthroughs. 

Now I can't wait to continue the sci-fi saga!

About four months before the release of ME2 I was looking for a new game to play and searched online for recommendations...came across a few ME1 reviews and decided to check it out on youtube...saw the opening scene with Shepard and knew I had to get the game...picked up a used Xbox copy at Gamestop and loved it...joined BSN not long after and found out you could import your saves...lol...not with Xbox at least not for me...I've killed 3 with RRoD...I have bad luck with them so I pre-ordered ME2 for pc and bought a new copy of ME1 for pc to get my saves ready.

[Alex06]

Friend kept telling me how great Mass Effect is, and my dad even rented it for me once, but I never really was interested because I thought it was a really long game I'd have to go through and it would feel like a drag. So I never really played it until ME2 was about to come out. I gave in to what my friends were saying about ME and boy, were they right. It was totally worth it.

I remember being there when they announced the game back in 2005 or 2006, and seeing the trailer and presentation. When I tried the game for the first time, I never really ever got into combat, so I assumed that the gameplay was still a lot like that, that Shepard was racist, Garrus was a jerk and Ashley had that horrible voice, and was sort of racist, too. I also didn't like how the environments looked in that first presentation of the game, but to my surprise, it was NOTHING like the original reveal, when I finally decided to commit to playing the entire game 2 years later, which is good.

I still remember seeing the little ME1 conversation clips on YouTube before its release. I bought it within the week of its release, and I remember my close friend got to play it before it was released since he rented it from some video game place that didn't care about official release dates. I was extremely jealous.

So, yeah, once I played it I was hooked. It's been 5 years. That's quite a long time to be attached to these characters. Garrus, Wrex, Liara...ME3's going to be at least somewhat emotionally impacting, that's for sure.

[Holoe4]

I kept hearing about how cool this new Mass effect game was, So I decided to rent it sometime in early 2008. I really liked it and I decided.... Screw Renting This, I Need To Buy This Game!

After playing through the game a couple times I heard a new one was coming out....

[Jerjud45]

I had just gotten back from a 15 month deployment in early 2009, and was looking for a new game to buy since I hadn't played any for a while. I saw Mass Effect at Best Buy for $20 with the included Bring Down the Sky DLC disc. Saw the Bioware logo and immediately knew I should pick it up due to past games like Neverwinter Nights and Knights of the Old Republic.

This turned into getting ME2 on release day, and then pre ordering the CE for ME3. Its unfortunate that Bioware was acquired by EA though, ME3 will likely be the last Bioware title I purchase.

[mghjr6]

I loved KOTOR and enjoyed Jade Empire. I saw ME1 in a GameStop around summer 2008, and didn't even realize it was made by BioWare. I was married and didn't play games much at the time, but my (now ex-)wife's kids had an xbox360. I had never heard of ME, and I picked it up just based on the package. It just looked like a fix for my sci-fi addiction.

I only got to play the first few hours, then I could never get near the console; but I loved what I'd seen. When I got divorced in 2009, I moved back in with my parents, updated my PC hardware, then heard about ME2 and grabbed ME1 for PC. Been addicted ever since.

Well, my Hubby bought ME1 for me after I started playing DAO and couldn't get enough of it and I said 'Oh, thanks Babe but action RPG's aren't for me and I really don't want to be a spaceman - can you take it back to the shop and get a refund?'   

He couldn't because it was a steam copy and so ME1 sat in my uninstalled games file until about a month ago when he went away for fortnight's business trip and I got so bored in the evenings without anyone to chat to that I thought I'd give it a go.
Since then I've played ME1, ME2 (which I had to buy because I never bothered redeeming the get ME2 free deal when I bought DA2!), bought every available piece of DLC, pre-ordered the ME3 DDCE, played the demo and endlessly lurked on the forums.  My washing pile has taken over the spare room and my husband says I haven't spoken to him for longer than 5 minutes since I started the damn game!
So I'm officially hooked and I guess I did want to be a spaceman after all!

Deep down all good people want to be spacemen.
("Spacepeople" doesn't quite have the right ring to it does it, can we declare "spaceman" gender neutral?)

[Carnage752]

Walked into Game-Stop one day, saw it was cheap, and bought it. Played it, was like "WTF is this??" and quit. One week later, played again, beat it, and realized "Holy balls this is awesome!"

[Lee T]

Since playing KOTOR and played and liked their older games, I've kept an eye on all things Bioware. The Mass Effect project was one of the main reasons why I do have an xbox. I was completely hooked when they mentioned the trilogy concept with uploaded saves (I'm a sucker for sagas).

Well since I think 'Spacebarbie' definately belongs to Miranda and 'Spacegirl' sounds like a bad 70's comicstrip, Fem Shepherd can be officially be a (gender neutral) 'spaceman'.
