Mass Effect 2  (for PC)

Mass Effect is a space based Role Playing game for the PC, however, the console versions are also available. The game has been published by EA, or Electronic Arts. Mass Effect 2 is a sequel to the hugely popular Mass Effect and is the second game in a trilogy with a massive fan following. The game is set in the Milky Way galaxy, which is our own galaxy in the universe. The game takes place in the distant future where a new Element called Element Zero, or Eezo has been discovered. The discovery of this element led to an exponential advancement in technology that allowed Man to engage in FTL or Faster Than Light travel that facilitates journeys across the galaxy in a matter of hours or days.

Early before the events of Mass Effect 2, Man discovered the Mass Relays and opened a few of them by accident. This led to them coming face to face with the Turian Race. The Turians are known to have the most powerful military in the galaxy and they wage war on the Human fleet thinking them to be too primitive to handle the Mass Relays. The war ended only after the Galactic Council intervened and inducted humanity into the Galactic Council. The game also comes with the option of getting DLCs like Overlord, Lair of the Shadow Broker and Arrival among other less significant DLCs.

Mass Effect 2 is a critically acclaimed RPG which sold over two million copies in the early days of its release. The success of the game, together with the whole Mass Effect series is largely due to the interactive storytelling in the game coupled with deep rooted characters with believable background stories for all of them.

Mass Effect 2 is a Single Player RPG where Commander Shepard is the pivotal character that you control. Developing and customizing your character is one of the main elements in the game. Interpersonal relationships between the main character and the crew members is also very important to the mission. Team loyalty is earned through missions in the game where you help your team members get through their own personal trials and tribulations.

Another important aspect in the game is the fact that, even though the game occurs in Real-time, you can at any point, pause it and take aim at your enemies while using powers and special abilities. This comes in handy when commanding squad members to target different enemies or the same one as you. The game uses the concept of shielding and cover during fight sequences. The characters have regenerative health and shields which make combat that much more enjoyable. The game has a PEGI rating of 18 for violence.
