At this point, can it really get any worse for BioWare? Seems like every other week they are getting bad press...
If by press you mean the huge public/nerdrage/forum outcry then yes you are right. If on the other hand you mean the gaming press in general then its more like "Brilliant!" "Fantastic!" "Amazing!" and all those other cocksucking superlatives, combined with 9/10 scores and only a passing mention of a 'slightly dissapointing' ending with a huge fat recomendation to buy the game if you even remotely liked the first two.
I'm in the same camp with the pro reviews. I felt ME3 was easily as enjoyable as ME2. I was watching my wife play through ME1 over the weekend and graphically, ME3 is just amazing compared to the first game. It's really come a long way.
There are some really great gaming moments in ME3 and the final push to retake Earth near the end of the game was really good.
The ending is disappointing, I won't lie about that. It's everything people have said it was. But it's not so bad that it diminishes from the previous 20-30 hours of game before then. It starts to unravel in the last 30 minutes, takes a really dark turn, and then falls completely apart.
Overall, I'd rate it low 90s and definitely reccomend it to anyone who enjoyed ME2. But if you're the type of person who judges an entire work by the last paragraph, then skip it.
