To be fair that wasn't me, I actually didn't vote for any Civ game.

I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favourite game of this generation.
Mass effect is a third person space RPG, where you assume direct control, if you want, of Commander Shepard, a completely awesome person who just happens to have what it takes to save the entire galaxy from more or less anything you could possibly throw at her (yes, her, deal with it). The game offers a lot of exploration, excellent music, likable characters and also a pretty cool story, bro. Although I personally thing some of the actual combat mechanics were better in the two later games, I think the actual "RPG" part is a lot better in the first of them.
The trilogy may not have ended on the highest of notes but from Mass Effect 1 to 3 the journey was amazing. It tugged at the heart strings, thrusting you into decisions with actual consequences - allowing you to be a goodie two shoes or a bad ass who makes trout happen. The refinements in 2 and 3 may not have been to everyone’s tastes but there's no denying that Mass Effect was a masterpiece out of left field.
All in all, Mass Effect is a game that everyone who like RPGs and sci-fi should try. Also, the Mako rocks and anyone who says otherwise is clearly mentally challenged.

I approve.
Two votes for FFXIV, and none of them were me, before anyone says it. Really glad it's getting that kind of approval, though!
And definitely glad to see Mass Effect up there, such a fantastic game.
Such a boring game.
Mass Effect was good, but Mass Effect 2 was on an entirely different level.
Also, how did Catherine get even one vote?
Never played Mass Effect, since it had never came out for PS3. Eventually it did come out as part of a multi-pack, which I may play at some point. I loved ME2 and ME3 so much that I probably should play the first.
I loved Mass Effect 1 but I hated ME2 and refused to play the third. ME from a gameplay perspective is extremely similar to KOTOR which is fine because that game was awesome. The story, exploration and everything was some good fun world building. Most of what I liked was discarded in 2 in favor of a sorry Gears of Wars style gameplay mixed with Ocean's 11...but where in Ocean's 11, the team is formed in the first 1/3 of the movie (if that) it takes the entire game to do that here. Additionally the big and massive decision at the end of the first game seems to get brushed under the rug to maintain a status quo.
Also, the MAKO was awesome and fun as hell. Gave a sense of how big and awesome the universe can be. That is replaced by a terrible scanning game from orbit. I want to explore!
I actually preferred the Hammerhead vehicle from ME2.
As for decision are you talking about (SPOILER) kaiden vs ashley?
Cause I feel there are bigger decisions in both 2 and 3.
