Mass Effect Main Story Completed

Yesterday evening I completed the main storyline of Mass Effect. The ending was epic, if not completely a setup for the sequels. There were a bunch of great moments leading up to the ending, and several heart-wrenching choices that determined the fate of the lives of many. The level of storytelling in Mass Effect is so high that you honestly feel good or bad depending on the choices that your character makes, and the consequence of those choices are highest near the end of the story.

I'm very much looking to a replay through as a different class, and will probably play more to the renegade rather than paragon behavior, to see how the "dark side" lives. Hopefully by then the downloadable content will be available, as it still can't be downloaded!

But Mass Effect was a blast, and will be worth at least one more playthough.
