Glowing reviews for Mass Effect 2

The magazine reviews are pouring in, and fans will be delighted. Xbox World 360 has published a 6 page review, and the verdict is that BioWare's highly anticipated sequel is "arguably the best RPG in recent years," and goes on to rate the game 90%. "Magnificent characters" and "actual role-playing," are praises delivered, but it's not necessarily all positive; "Mass Effect 2 may not have quite the depth and consequences of Dragon Age - although it's impossible to tell, as both games contain so many variables - but it's the more polished and confident of the two." Earlier in January, OXM gave the game an outstanding 95%.

It didn't with the first, as they designed a UI specifically for the PC. Will let you know as soon as I find out - Steam pre-load has just started!
