Yeah, I had never even heard of ME and I never thought I'd like any series better than Metal Gear Solid. In fact, I was in the middle of a MGS series playthrough when I started ME. A year later, I still haven't gone back MGS and I don't even care about the upcoming MGS: Rising anymore. I think what drew me into ME was the amazing ME2 intro with the destruction of the Normandy, Shepard's revival and escape and the decision making where you can actually hear your decisions being voiced unlike in Fallout 3. It's been said before, but I flet like I was watching a movie that I got to be a part of. And since I'm an action/sci-fi/fantasy movie buff as well, I was literally in heaven. I remember my wife being pissed because it was summer time and she wanted to go places and all I wanted to do was sit in the house and play ME2.
