The PS3 version of Mass Effect 2 was my entry point into the series. I didn't have any interest in the first game back when I owned an Xbox 360, and the second game didn't really catch my attention when it was ported to the PS3. It wasn't until I played the demo of the third game and heard a lot of good word on it from some Star Trek goons that I picked up a copy of the second game. It's flawed, occasionally embarrassing, and has a couple of horrible DLC missions, but it also has very likable characters, a fun world, and some very exciting scenes. It's not a perfect game, and maybe it borrows a bit too heavily from prior sci-fi, but it works and is ultimately a very satisfying experience.
