Just reread this whole thread. Gonna be joining Fig, Req and Baird on the whole "start from 1" dealio. You really can't afford to miss out on the First series. You make so many decisions in that game that carry over, nevermind just the main storyline big ending decision (which has galactic level ramifications in 2). Your decisions determine if people are alive or dead.
There are so many well written little moments in ME. Complements the overall good ass story so beautifully. The best part is that despite all these great (and actually well executed) concepts, the gameplay is fucking fantastic. It stands up well with shooters coming out now.
