It's a known fact that as soon as you talk about Mass Effect 3, someone will shout out "But... what about the terrible endings?"

The thing is, part three is a really, really great game, and having a bit of a dodgy end sequence doesn't take away from what is an excellent final part to probably the greatest RPG series ever made.

Not only does Mass Effect 3 have arguably the best combat mechanics in the series - and some real tearjerker moments - but the multiplayer mode is truly a thing of beauty. It may of gained notoriety for those endings, but it doesn't detract from this being a great finale to hundreds of hours of gameplay across the three games.
