Review - Mass Effect 3: Citadel (PS3, 2013)



Citadel is the final story-driven DLC release for Mass Effect 3 and marks the official end of the game's development. It follows From Ashes, an almost essential DLC that adds an important new character, Leviathan, which I found to be a mixed bag, and Omega, which had some fun combat but often terrible writing and wasn't worth the price. After being massively let down by Omega, I wasn't expecting much from Citadel. Thankfully, Bioware proved me wrong; Citadel is the fullest, most well made DLC content in the entire Mass Effect series.

Review - Mass Effect (PS3, 2012)


The way I was introduced to the Mass Effect series was definitely a strange one. I started out with the demo of Mass Effect 3, liked what I saw, and soon after picked up a copy of Mass Effect 2. I had a great time with the second game and picked up the third one about a month after it came out. I'd read plenty of summaries of the first game, so I had no trouble following the plot, but I was always curious to play it for myself. By the time I became interested in the series, I no longer owned an Xbox 360 and I didn't have a PC capable of running the original game. Finally, five years after its original release, EA released a PS3 port of the first Mass Effect, and I quickly jumped at the chance to check it out.
