Ok, get this. I don't like Mass Effect. The characters didn't appeal to me; I disliked most of them, save for the aformentioned two. The combat was almost a carbon copy of Gears of War, a game I found to be incredibly dull and stupid. Since my teammates were dedicated to stopping my shots directed at the enemy, I ended up charging everyone with shotguns. It worked pretty well since apparently the other guys aren't expecting this, ever.
Nothing about the game's story interested me after playing it for two hours, and this is generally not a good sign. I quit, because I honestly found every other 360 game at my disposal to be more interesting.
The fact that you believe the combat system to be a "carbon copy of GoW" just further illustrates my point that you have no idea what you're talking about and probably haven't even played the 2 hours you claim.
It had a cover system and was in third person - that's were the similarities end. What about the weapon mods and ammo types? What about being able to control your squad's load-out and command them to use their special attacks?
I don't give a shit if you didn't like the game, but when you start trying to make out like you're some kind of expert on it just because you saw your friend playing it for 20 minuites, it pisses me off. Just admit that you don't know what you're talking about then shut up about it forever.
