Mass Effect 2

After about 60 hours of play, I finished up Mass Effect 2. I had started ME but didn't finish it a year or so ago, and the release of ME2 motivated me to finish it up before importing my character into the sequel. Between them I played about 120 hours total.
The combat was a bit more interesting in ME2, although the "RPG" genre on the console is always a bit too simplistic for my tastes. Each character has only 4 skills to progress, and while the main character gets a few more, it is still even more simplified character advancement than ME.
The loyalty missions for your party were a nice touch, and being a compleitionist I explored everywhere 100%, finished all the missions that didn't require being a Renegade, and played through the paid DLC as well. Most of the DLC weapons were a bit silly, but I liked the "Project Overlord" add-on and Kasumi was a pretty fun party member.
Apparently there are more DLC packs coming so I might get in a few more missions even though I've finished the epic story arc...
