Mass Effect 1 and 2

Play ME3. It is good. Scruffy just hates it irrationally.

The game is great, the endings are now passable based on the re-do.

Exactly. The entire trilogy is one of the best gaming experiences I've ever had minus the last 10 minutes. With the new endings it is alright and either way, 10 minutes isn't going to ruin the minimum 60 hours required to beat all 3.

Dark Souls. But you have to really pay attention to whats going on around you.

Or become a Youtube junkie.

ME2 has a great ending. It was good enough for me. I disliked ME3 in its entirety, except for a few scenes.

Regardless of the ending debate the fact that war assets were useless was a HUGE glaring error. The game had some glaring ending issues, but I enjoyed the journey in 3.

I have almost 500 hours investing in this story line and am not looking to starting over with a new one in 4.

Infuriating. And you had to play multiplayer to get a decent number. Go to hell. Ugh.

I agree this was dumb, but I did actually enjoy multiplayer. I just hated how you had to constantly play to keep it high or it would decrease.
