First game in the series despite very rough clunky gameplay is my absolute favorite. The story hooked me with the sovereign reveal and the plot is the best of the three entries. And the music felt the best with how atmospheric and less Hollywoody it was, so added to the scifi other world vibe. And I liked how the lighting was darker in places like the Normandy adding to the feeling of being in space.
Yeah, I always remember the first game the best. It was an RPG first and a shooter second. The vehicle sections, while terrible did provide a sense of scale that the other games lacked.
I absolutely loved the Mako. I know I'm in the minority, but I just love how it drives. And stomping on a Colossus with the jump jets is always funny.
I thought Mako was great too. I played with mouse and keyboard so maybe game pad controls were clunkier in comparison?
