After 40+ years gaming this is as close to starring in a blockbuster movie as I'm ever likely to get. I'm only part way through it and it has already had a profound effect on me. Thanks to the amazing plot and superb voice acting, you really have empathy towards the main characters. The graphics are astonishing and the music score helps to add tension and excitement to proceedings. Some might argue that a lot of the game is just based on pressing a single button to make a decision and, whilst this might be true, the fact that it only gives you 2 or 3 seconds to make this decision, means that you actually get an insight into your own thought process. Needless to say this game has a HUGE replay value because EVERY decision you make changes the course of the story and final outcome and there are literally 100s to be made.

This is a superb series, I wondered what all the hype was about and now I see why! Well scripted and acted, zny Star Wars fans should love this. The effects alone are astounding and its refreshing to see them use masks and not rely too heavily on CGI. Having said that the CGI is sublime and the team should be commended.

I've got 40+ years worth of gaming behind from the original daddy of the consoles, the Atari 2600, to my modern PC. This game is bar far one of the best I've played! The original game was good but it was bug ridden and the gameplay was flawed in places. This sequel fixes ALL the problems and is so satisfying to play. Little things such as the game telling you if a soldier can get a shot at a particular enemy BEFORE you move them is so useful. All the abilities your soldiers learn or earn are needed. You need to plan your moves ahead and when your tactics work you get a huge sense of achievement. On top of this they then add the DLC 'War of the Chosen. This is the cherry on top of an already awesome gaming cake! Somehow they even got the cast from Star Trek TNG to voice the main characters! A stroke of genius.

I started watching this series when it was being released on VHS back in the 90s. Although the pilot episode was underwhelming, the first 2 episodes (Babel & Captive Pursuit) set the tone for the rest of a brilliant series. Every 2 or 3 weeks a new video was released and I went scouring the shelves for it and ended up collecting every episode. The characters are so fascinating and watching each of them develop was a sheer joy. I laughed and cried as they all went through their respect roles. The episodes were diverse and the series really kicks off from series 3 with the introduction of The Dominion.
