With a Library approaching two hundred game titles on GameCube, Xbox, Xbox 360 and PS3 (and even a hand full on PC), to say I have played a number of games is a bit of an understatement.  Of all the games I have played very few have captured my imagination in the way the Mass Effect Trilogy has.  The story of Shepard’s personal struggle to save the universe from The Reapers or the Collectors is a narrative I have fully embraced.  I painstakingly crafted the appearance of my “custom” Commander Shepard when I began the first Mass effect and I carried his “personality” to Mass Effect 2 unchanged.  He made the moral choices, spoke with other characters in the Mass Effect universe, and attacked challenges in the self-same manner I would if I were faced with the same circumstances.  I like Shepard and I like playing as Shepard. In many ways when I play a Mass Effect game, I am Shepard.
