""All of this success doesn't come without a cost. The framerate in Mass Effect is as erratic as they come. This isn't something that happens occasionally. It happens incessantly. The game also has issues loading textures in when you enter a new environment. Flat, boring scenery gets filled in with details piece by piece for a few moments each time you load in.
We would be remiss if we didn't mention Mass Effect's numerous bugs and glitches. Clipping through the scenery is a regular occurrence, particularly when you make use of the singularity biotic. Shepard has a displeasing tendency to get stuck in objects, sometimes in the midst of battle. It happens to NPCs as well -- it isn't nearly as frustrating but it does kill your sense of immersion when an enemy "phases" through a wall. On occasion, the game stopped registering our button presses. Rarely, Mass Effect even went the whole nine yards and locked up. All of these bugs can be wiped away with a reset, but boy if they aren't annoying.
We wouldn't be surprised at all if Mass Effect saw a series of auto-updates for Xbox Live members to fix some of these issues, but that really isn't any excuse for shipping a product with this many bugs.""
9.4
Outstanding
whoah? wha? wait? excuse me?
not saying that the game deserves an 5/10, but i mean come'on!
this is rdiculous. can reviews from IGN even be trusted anymore? they clearly address many many issues that effect (no pun) the actual game. freezing, clipping, framerate, buttons not registering and a plethora of other technical issue whic arent rare in normal gameplay....and somehow this game get a 9.4?!?!?!
thats almost perfect!

Have you ever played a 90+game named Shadow of the Colossus? Its frame rate is always below 15. Frame rate is not a really touchstone to determinethe "Best game"
I played the game and Its far better than any game i played so far. (I play everygame)
Its adetailed sci-fi RPG with a movie quality scenerio.
