So far, I like the soldier the least. Granted, I have not played all the way through ME1 (and as a result have not played through ME2-3 as a soldier either). My first playthrough was as a Infiltrator. I was playing on veteran difficulty and enjoyed the character. In ME1 I enjoyed the medium armor as is looks less like a bodysuit than the light armor everyone else (but the soldier) has to wear. Once I had some points in sniper rifle, I got pretty good at it, and the pistol is very effective when the sniper rifle was not. Infiltrator ME2: Still played well, especially being able to hack Geth; and the Viper sniper rifle acted like a battle rifle. ME3: I raised the difficulty and was really hurting for a anti-shield power, although this was where I really learned to use my companions powers. Vanguard: I liked the Vanguard due to being able to use the shotgun, best weapon in ME1 in my opinion, then it was ruined in the rest. ME2-3 the Vanguard was still a great medium to close range character due to the shockwave ability. Especially good in ME3 since you can pick what weapons you can use. Sentinel, great, especially since I was able to pick up the shotgun thanks to my Vanguard playthrough. this character was where I was able to really study biotic powers. Very heavily reliant on biotic powers in ME2 until you can get yourself an assault rifle (I do not have any of the weapons packs). ME3: Very flexible, with the choice of weapons and powers, the Sentinel is probably the most flexible character in the game (that I've played through so far); I'm looking forward to the second playthough in ME3 with my Sentinel. Engineer: I'm still going through my first time with the Engineer. So far I'm enjoying it, I picked up the shotgun again, just so I had a close up weapon to knock enemies back. My favorite class in the multi-player is certainly the Engineer, since you have the powers to take down shields and then hurt you enemies with an Inferno. Yes, I wind up playing something of a support character, but it's all for the good of the mission.
