  • xD gotta love elevator music, makes your fucked up day seem like any ordinary fucked up day at the office.. :D

  • Turian's have a badass like Garrus, Krogan are pretty tough and do not afraid of much, and Salarian are the assholes of the Citadel. Also, raping dat sacrifice Ashley button within the first ten minutes.

  • I like mass effect but it's a bit of a halo rip off.

  • @hendrixemence what! why?

  • @hendrixemence Except not, since the enemies don't say, "I TOTALLY PWNED YOU, NOOB!", enemies aren't religious fanatics, there's no plague-like species raping all lifeforms, humanity isn't hyper-dominant, and the storyline isn't as customizable.

  • @8BitMunky Yeah what i did was watch a walkthrough on youtube and THEN use the digital comic

  • @nicksmi56 I should have done that. I did the comic first but 5 minutes later i didn't remember half of it or the choices i made... But Mass Effect 1 is out of the question, for the PS3 at least... Guess I'll get it for PC if I have the time, at least I can enjoy this game at its fullest.

  • Wow, that's a lot to take in. I recently bought Mass Effect 2 for PS3 (without playing the first) and I'm feeling a bit lost. The interactive comic isn't nearly enough to understand what happened on previous game. The game's storyline itself makes references to previous events assuming the player knows about them...

  • @8BitMunky That's because this game is a trilogy, you're supposed to play all of them in order to get the whole story. Trying to play ME2 without ME1 is like watching The Two Towers without watching The Fellowship of the Ring first.

  • @Adrdell I see where you're getting at. But don't you think Bioware should have thought of that when developing ME2 for PS3? They launched it for PS3 even knowing that many players were new to the series, so I assumed I would have no problems understanding... But there's always the ME wiki and the Codex ingame.

  • ,, I dont take orders from you ''

  • Better than the comic, thx man

  • '248 000 BCE: Reapers stop for gas. Blow everything up' XD

  • i like the elevator rides in mass effect cuz its so awkward that its funny

  • Was this a mass effect one or two recap?

  • @2010KTV This was a recap of Mass Effect 1.

  • they also travel by these giant tweezer things......lol XD

  • hard decision to let ashly or kaiden die? bitch please i was raping the kill ashly option before it even appeared

  • @caimisace Go suck Kaidens dick then. I love Ashley. bitch please.. ;)

  • @TaePoDongIII

    Bro's before Hoe's.

  • @TaePoDongIII Ashley, the racist religious chick?

    wtf.

  • @TaePoDongIII I didn't even think it was possible, but when Ashely said she believed in God, I couldn't believe I wanted her to die even more. Honestly, she is a cow whom deserves to blow up on Virmire. At least she dies a "hero."

  • @xmikeyxlikesitx So u hate people based on their religion only? I'm no a Christian, but I don't hate her. If you actually talk to her over time its better. I found out more about her family and Shepard even ASKS her if she's racist, and she explains no, but her sentiment towards aliens is hard because of her family history and how she was treated after her grandad surrendered to Turians.

    I myself am Buddhist (Thanes based on) and I have Christian friends who respect me. Don't be so ignorant.

  • Squid?! WHAT?!! They're big stupid jellyfishes!

  • 1:19 SHEPHARD FACE XD

  • Whos Cerberus?

  • @Zeduuh A human organisation that will happily kill Alien lifeforms if it makes Humans stronger/better. Basically, Human Supremacists

  • But in all seriousness I hate people of jewish descent who happen to contain genes which make them desire the same sex and also happen to have dark skin . . . but I digress.

  • Both games were GAWD DAAAAAAAAAMMMMNED GOURD!

  • dragon age in 5 minutes

  • it's videos like these that IGN really comes in handy

  • Rated M - for Motherfu*ker.

  • 1.20 is priceless :D

  • @LinoTheLittle If that picture of Shepard had been any older, you might say he had a colorLESS past!

  • All I understood is that Chuck Norris is a hunter

  • Can someone dumb this down for me.

  • @WackyFunkMunster Humans get spaceships. find mass effect relays. Relays take to citadel, like new york of Space if New york had the white house. Farmers find shinny thing. farmers die. Alien which is good at fighting, called specter, touches. Alien gets fked up. Mentally. sees spaceship ITS ALIVE!!(reapers) The citadel is a teleporter. You see, repaers get bored, they make mass effect relays, and Citadel....

  • @jaiar12 Thanks!

  • @WackyFunkMunster after all the other life-forms (turians, other aliens, human, etc.) get smart and get powerful, they blow shit up, as in everything. Then remake citadel, let aliens get strong again. SURPRISE Reapers RE blow shit up.They do this MANY times. Now back to the present. Shepard no like surprises. He make a team, like a bunch of people working together. Crazy alien get lots of robots. The reaper and crazy alien and robots fight a bunch of people, many die. Reaper dies. :D... or D:

  • @jaiar12 Thanks, like the caveman talk at some points lol

  • wtf is that at 1:20 lol

  • Gay...

  • Well that just blew my mind lol

  • was this both games or only mass effect 1

  • @x2sXeST0RMZz only mass effect 1

  • agreed ending with elevator music = best ending ME2 ending for shepards death he's actually killed by an elevator XD

  • i thought 4:33 was the best part

    

  • 128 people missed out on the sweet elevators.

  • "Reapers do a drive-by" WTF HAHAHAHA

  • I hate when I have to wait for the fucking advertisement to load

  • ''Protheans appearently also built the Citadel, a massive space station that's home of the council *and has lots of sweet elevators*.''

    LOL!

  • how does the protheans from ilos compare to the protheans that turn collector in me2?

  • @Kelystic They are the same race. Supposedly, the Reapers enslaved and mutated the last of the Protheans, creating the insect-like creatures referred to as the Collectors.

  • So funny yo ! I got poop in mouth yo!

  • skip to 4:15 best bit

  • 4.45,you stuppid pindoss idiots,not 5 minutes

  • @newuuser256 READ asshole in the video it said sort of stop trolling and read

  • Still don't get the storyline ... But great video guys.

  • Mass Effect 1...Y U NO FOR PS3!?

  • @ChinaDollMaiden Because Microsoft is an asshole and has to rights to it >:(

  • and i f**** up both loling out loud

  • reapers do a drive-by. dude i spit my drink everywhere

  • omgod, I laughed SO hard. thanks yo!

  • Love the timeline haha

  • If it wern't for the fact that Kaidan is voiced by the same guy that played Carth, I wouldn't have been able to stand him. He just sortof sucked....

  • I tried mass effect when it came out because I heard it was really good. For some reason I hated it. I just tried mass effect 2 a month or so ago and I can't stop playing it. I feel like I missed out on a lot by not playing the first one. thanks for making this! I still might go back and play the first one if I have time before the 3rd.

  • This video was absolutely awesome. I really wish you had done the same for Mass Effect 2.

  • The pre-Navy recruitment photo at 1:20 almost made me spit out my drink! LOL

  • do mass effect 2 in 5 minutes

  • greatest 5 minutes (sort of) of my life.

  • haha, gel.

  • Saren's gone more rogue than Sarah Palin ROFL

  • ME TOO!!!!!!!!!

  • I HATE ADVERTISEMENT THAT YOU CANT KLICK AWAY!

  • 2:53 to 3:00 is the funniest part. LOLOLOL THIS GUY IS TOO FUNNY

  • They need to do a "Mass Effect 2 in 5 Minutes"

  • NURHUR IGN IS SO BIASED TO CALLADUTEH- ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL

  • "225,000 BCE: Wil lFerrell arrives in The land of the Lost"

    Hahahahahaha

  • @TerranElite1551

    fuckin spoiler 

  • It is truly a shame that this game couldn't be released for the ps3.. I own an xbox 360 so I've played mass effect 1 & 2 and they are Such good games!! the first one needs to be shared with our fellow ps3 players :( on a side note I can't wait for ME3!!!!!

  • @Peelzkeelz yeah i felt the same way, Mass effect 1 should of definently been on PS3 as well. PS3 owners are missing out big time.

  • ah yes, IGN. The company that reviews electronic entertainment. We have dismissed that claim

  • @punn213 You forgot the air quotes! "IGN"

  • 2:37 :D 186.000 BCE Luke Skywalker unknowingly kisses his sister Leia :D

  • This is a great and kinda funny summary. Way better than Odysseyofj's summary (don't watch his, its total crap)

  • I learnt the meaning of life during those elevator rides

  • LOOOOL 2:37 "Will Ferrel arrives in the Land of the Lost"

    i almost pissed myself

  • ok so i have me2 and its incredible but i never played the first game does this thing preety much clear up everything i need to no ?

  • @gameteacher101 You should get it. Its only 20$ on the Marketplace!

  • @gameteacher101 for the most part. he failed to mention the rachni queen. but rly u need to play the original to grasp everything. Mass effect genesis dlc gets the main choices but not the fun little ones

  • dam IGN u lied to me and everyone else its not 5min its 4:45

  • This is great for people who have a ps3

  • @Maroon5Habbo

    Shut... your... fucking... mouth fanboy

  • Lmao awesome vid. Mass Effect in a nutshell

  • i wonder if commander shepard ever gets bored

  • wow i had to look at thi8s casue i bought this when it came out then bought number two last night its 2011?its been a long time and i got t say number two very impressive :)

  • @capperz412 play the game and find out, but here's a short run down he only has enough time to save one before a bomb goes off.

  • So why does he have to sacrifce one of those people?

  • thanks!! really useful for those of us who bought number 2 on PS3 :)

  • @speddsk8rocker or 360

  • @speddsk8rocker not even close to playing it your self, also there are a lot more things that carry over then the stuff in the comic

  • @speddsk8rocker You guys missed out on the epic elevator rides!

  • @speddsk8rocker no body has the same experience in mass effect, so its better to play it yourself because you could do something different than what was told in this video, but this is pretty much everything you need to know for me2

  • what a pop crap

  • CONRAD RETURNS IN MASS EFFECT 2 FUNNY ASS HELL

  • listen

    im not fat

    i am social

    life comes first but

    in my free time i play 17 hours a day

    and i can certeinly say trough a big fan of halo battlefield and bethesda

    mass effect 2 had the moast personal story ever i really felt in the game like being sad when some one dies even more then ever

  • @traxgod2 same Thats why i was always paragon i actually care what the people think of me it's weird to say tho =/

  • What i find most ironic right now, is that my name is seren and a character's name is seren. XD

  • I had a hard time cause i ... F***** them both!

  • Guy: where every thing can be fixed with a little gel.

    Shepherd Circa Lair Of The Shadow Broker DLC Time: remember when u can slap anything with omni gel and it would be fixed?

    O_O no wonder the reapers are coming.

  • Where can I get that reaper cycle of extinction timeline? that shit is just too funny!

  • I've never even heard of Mass Effect, but when I looked at the top comments, I figured that they were as long as the recaps in Naruto >__>

  • how long were these "long elevator rides"? Were they the same length of a MGS cutscene?

  • @darkstef14 they were OVER 9000...feet off the ground floor...

    Long enough for Wrex to deliver an ultimatum to Kaidan, evidently. (Takes a long time, mind you.)

  • "148,000 BCE: Reapers do a drive-by" LOL

  • @URsuckishATlife "98,000 BCE: Reapers blow everything up" ROFLMAO

  • anyone else pause to look at the time line?

    mediafire . com/?d2wx44elguhlt29

  • I'm sure Tili miss the talks in the elevator

  • It's not "tens of thousands". There's 50,000 years between galactic extinctions, and the oldest KNOWN reaper is 37,000,000 years old.
