If you have been discouraged from this franchise so far because of the controversy about the ending, now is the time to get into it because of this pack. Yes, the ending is terribly flawed but apart from those last 10-15 minutes this series is absolutely stellar in every imaginable way.
1. It has an amazing cast of characters with incredible voice acting. Every character and i mean literally every character has been voiced very very well.
2.The world has astonishing depth to it. You visit a variety of planets and locations through the series and each location is well designed. There is an extensive 'codex' in the game that has information on almost everything you see in the game like technology, species, military structure, weaponry etc. Every planet you visit has a little tidbit of info about it, which while fictional, represents how much thought was put into these small things to make the series' universe seem more real.
3. It has a generous amount of humor. And heart. Most of the characters are well designed and their stories will move you and this is again helped by the voice acting.
4. The gameplay has a lot of variety because of the 6 different classes you can play as (Engineer, Soldier, Infiltrator, Sentinel, Vanguard and Adept with some very interesting and fun powers. The first two games are fairly restrictive in what weapons you can carry but by the third game you can choose all weapons from across 5 different classes of weapons (Snipers, Assault Rifles, SMGs, Shotguns, Pistols). The variety is further enhanced by the fact that you take two additional AI partners with you to missions and these AI partners also have their own special powers.
You can read my reviews about the 2nd and 3rd game on their respective pages but since I haven't been able to write about the first game, let me just write something about it here. The first game came out very early in this console generation and so the graphics and play style are a little dated. In fact it reminded me of the games I used to play in the 90s but with better graphics. What makes it worth playing through however, is the story, the humor, the relationships between you and your crew and the differing playstyles I mentioned earlier. The planet exploration in the first game is worth it for some of the sky vistas on certain planets but more or less worthless otherwise. However, the gameplay issues are revamped in 2 and 3. The gameplay in 3 is among the smoothest I have seen.
I would say that the 2nd game is my favorite of this generation. I've written in more detail about it in my review so please read that for an idea of what to expect.
The 3rd game is the first in the series to have multiplayer and if you are someone who hates playing against other people, be rest assured. This game's multiplayer is co-op based where you and three other players take on waves of 4 different enemy factions. It sounds formulaic and I didn't actually try it until 2 months after finishing the 3rd game. I was astonished at the depth of this mode. For starters, the multiplayer section has a series of free DLCs (Resurgence, Rebellion, Earth, Retaliation, Reckoning etc) that have added more characters, abilities, weapons and enemies to the game. This has resulted in around 60 characters that you can use in multiplayer with each character having their own set of powers. Many of the powers repeat but the combination of powers do not so each character plays quite differently. There must be over 60-70 different weapons if I recall correctly and it playing online becomes addictive. There are some problems with the multiplayer however. EA's servers are unreliable and expect to be disconnected from the game in the middle of matches sometimes. The method of obtaining characters and weapons is also frustrating because you do not know what character or weapon you will get next. The leveling system of these things also take time and are designed to encourage micro-transactions as I see it.
TL;DR ... This trilogy pack has something for everyone. Whether you're 18 or 60 years old, you will have fun if you can play a game.
Baldur's Gate 4 in 1 Boxset , Wing Commander III: Heart of the Tiger , & Planescape: Torment - PC are the first in an a growing niche of games with interactive stories. As technology as advanced, the quality of these types of video games has exploded, and the genre moved into consoles with Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic - Xbox . BioWare has become the industry leader making these games. Though I pray daily for other companies to begin challenging them for that title.
Mass Effect Trilogy - Playstation 3 's first released in 2007. Similar to Dragon Age Origins: Ultimate Edition - Playstation 3 Developing a new I.P. can be tricky because fans of this genre want historical and character depth in the stories that are told. That means creating a historical timeline of events similar to what Marvel has done with their movies such as Marvel's The Avengers [HD ], Captain America: The First Avenger , Guardians of the Galaxy (3D Blu-ray + Blu-ray + Digital Copy) , The Incredible Hulk, Iron Man, & Thor so far. However, abundantly delevered what video gamers want in 2009.
The Milky Way in Mass Effect is rich in diversity of life, species, history, and character depth. Most importantly the games have inspired the audience to spend hundreds of hours in playtime by replaying the game with different characters and making different choices. Participants are are able to choose different 'careers' to explore with their protagonist but unlike Dragon Age, Mass Effect Trilogy restricts the participant to playing only as a (fe)male Terran.
Each game have myriad endings that can easily be fundamentally different from each other instead of a few minor differences. Furthermore the next game in the series allows the audience to import a completed saved game from the previous game. Importing the choices from the previous game can change the current game rather drastically depending on the choices. Some singularities are weigh more in consequences than others. Each choice affects the overall story in its own unique way.,
Despite all of these choices, the main and side stories lead the audience to love and care for the characters they have developed. We want them to succeed and dream of the next mission and planet we want to explore. As described the entire game is implicitly compelling in myriad ways. There is action, adventure, drama, and especially romance. All of these elements help the game appeal to a wide variety of sapients and attract new gamers to grow the niche further.
The one draw back is the producers at BioWare failed to advance, or at least maintain, the awesome game mechanics from the first game. Instead each game tries reinventing the wheel 'again' which I think is just a big waste of money and time. However someone at BioWare seems concerned about their job security.
As a quality game trilogy Mass Effect Trilogy - Playstation 3 is still felicitously worth buying even five years after its initial release. Fans of interactive stories should easily accept the dated graphics to experience the outstanding story of the first game and the greater customization of your playtime in the more recent games. I suspect that the vg series will be worth playing for years in the future
I hope & pray BioWare reopens work on Mass Effect Trilogy - Playstation 3 and a remake the vd game for the Playstation 4 and XBox One. There is plenty of opportunity to explore this trilogy further, after repealing the ending from ME3. From what I have heard their plans for ME4 is starting a new fresh story, so I believe they should just abandon using the number 4 as that game will fail to 'continue' from the previous games. A few people at BioWare seem to fail to grasp the concept of the customer is always right.
As for directions on getting past the monumental fail at the end of ME3: I suggest new members of the audience play the last mission once or twice but then just data dump it. Any future play through, simply 'end' the game thyself right before the final sequence of missions. Then daydream and/or write down the ending you want. I do this with movies and television series too; Particularly the ones with writers who love tragedy far too much.

Non sono inclusi i dlc del 3 capitolo ma a 30 euro è comunque un affare
Ayant bouclé le second opus des années en arrière et n'ayant plus le jeu, en plus d'avoir du mal à trouver le premier épisode. J'ai décider de reprendre la trilogie à 0 et d'en profiter pleinement.
J'ai été complètement conquis par Mass effect; bien que le 3 soit pour moi le moins bon, il reste néanmoins un excellent jeu.
N'ayant pas réussi à trouver les trois titres en occasion et surtout en bon état, c'était l'occasion de saisir ce coffret, qui est un indispensable dans une collection, et pour passer de longues heures de divertissement.
Mass effect n'est pas un simple jeu, c'est une expérience vidéo ludique riche et enivrante, que je conseille à tout amateur de science fiction, mais pas seulement,...
Juste déçu que la boite ai été abimée lors du transport.
El gameplay se va perfeccionando através de los juegos, el primer juego se siente un poco más lento y tosco en su gameplay tomando en cuenta que ya tiene tiempo que salió al mercado, pero va madurando durante la segunda y tercera entrega siendo más fluida y dinamica. Gráficamente ha envejecido como un buen vino, la primera parte es en donde reflejan más los años que han pasado en el, pero no le quita ningun merito, se conserva perfectamente, caracteristica que muy pocos juegos han logrado en estos años.
El envío por parte de Amazon fue impecable, me llego dos días antes de lo planeado en perfectas condiciones. 100% recomendable. Esta colección esta a un excelente precio, y más para coleccionistas, en México simplemente ya no lo encuentras nuevo. Aunque ya tenía fisicamente los episodios 2 y 3, no dude en comprar la trilogía fisica nuevamente.
