Looking to go buy a budget friendly, alien invasion type game. Loked at both of these, and got great reviews. Anyone who has played one, the other or both care to weigh in on where my money would be better spent would be much appreciated.

 
Mass Effect 2 easily. One of the best blockbuster games this gen. The sequel comes out this March, and you'll be able to import all of your decisions and data from ME2 into 3 (as long as you buy 3 on the same system). All-star cast, huge environments, great 'Dirty Dozen meets the Great Escape' story, and it's beautiful to look at.

*Plus* if you have a 360 or capable PC, pick up the first Mass Effect, and start from the beginning, as your decisions in 1 will carry over to 2 and 3.

Crysis 2 is good, but it's not ME2 good.

Well, you already bought both games, but you're gonna like Mass Effect 2 a lot more. Better plot, better gameplay, better acting, etc. The only thing Crysis has is better graphics.

 
ME2 and its no contest. ME2 is one of the best games I have ever played. In fact I ended up with it on both PC and PS3. I've beat the game at least 6 times, and even went trhough on Insanity...and damn that was hard...some of the hardest boss fights I've ever done, and that includes anything from Dark or Deamon's Souls.

 
Thanks for the info. Picked up Mass Effect 2 and will get started tonight. Got a 5 day return policy w/ no questions asked to return for full value, so it's a no lose situation. If I dig it I keep it, if not I go turn it back in and get my $17.95 back.

 
Just finished Rage. Will have to go back and replay the side missions. Pretty good game somewhat similar to Borderlands.
