Just curious to see where people fall in terms of which of the trilogy they like best.
As they say in Chicago, "Vote early...and often!"

I enjoyed them all though they all had faults of their own unique to each respective game.

I agree, spartan. The reason I picked ME2 is because it had the best balance in the games, I thought. ME1 had the best story but the worst combat mechanics. ME3 had the best combat mechanics but... well... ending. ME2, I found no serious flaws in either story or combat mechanics, though neither were the best of the series. For me, that makes it the most all-around enjoyable installment of the series. That said, I'd hate to lose any of that game series (except for the last 5 minutes originally and last 20 minutes in the extended agony DLC version).

I did enjoy them all, (Even the Mako 90degrees hill climbing). Mass Effect 2 however has a special place in my heart as the first mass effect i played on Xbox since it was my brothers, then years later i got mass effect 2 and played it before realizing that i had played the first before, that's when i decided to buy the first and start afresh, as a result it was ME2 That reintroduced me kinda, That's why it will be mine, without it i would have never been prompted to want to start from number 1.

The voting is in and it looks like #2 is the winner. But I also noticed a lot of "Overall it was good, but so were the others, just not as much", and I'm the same way.
#1: It introduced us to this wonderful universe and the people in it. For me, the biggest pro was being able to customize Shepard; I always put some more investment in the character when I have a hand in their creation. The biggest con was a rather large skill set and all the equipment customization. Maybe I'm just old, but I like it when things are kept simple.
#2: This was actually the first of the series I played (I owned a PS3, and ME1 wasn't available at the time). The biggest pro was simplifying the skills and equipment, it made things much easier. The biggest con was the planet scanning for resources. In #1 and #3 it was just launch one probe and be done with it.
#3: Like many other players, I was VERY disappointed in the original ending; I saw it and thought to myself, "Wait...that's it?". For me, the biggest pro was the "carry whatever you want" feature for weapons, along with their deepened customization. The biggest con (aside from the ending) was that it felt...rushed. You were pretty much running from mission to mission with no real time to enjoy the galaxy in its splendor.
