So basically in the game you prove yourself a Jedi Knight, and the Council sends you after a rogue Jedi…….no wait, ah nevermind….LOL :OP
I think the subtitle for the next game should be Mass Effect 2 : Bad Driving Physics Attempting to Cross Mountains In 3 Colors

Oh, I whole heartedly agree. The only issue is it is hard to talk too much about the ending without giving things away.

Man, I love this game!
Some flaws to be sure, exactly what you mentioned and yes I've found myself annoyed with certain aspects but for some reason I have so much admiration for it. There's something about the amount of information and backstory Bio-ware packed into the game that makes the whole experience seem so vast and epic and for it's shortcomings with all the side quests and secondary planets (Barren, dull, virtually lifeless, virtually pointless) the primary planets are very impressive and provide some pretty breathtaking vistas and atmospheric environments. The combat is actually pretty intuitive but yes, for some reason doesn't quite click right away. Once you get used to it though it's a blast. I'm surprised you didn't praise the ending more. The story arc is very compelling and the final level/boss battle is one of the best most epic, cinematic conclusions to a game I think I've ever played.
