    I want to play a game that is just like the Mass Effect games, but I can't think any.

    Are there any games at all that are like the Mass Effec games?

    If you are talking about games that have strong plot and narrative try Dragon Age 1 & 2 or the Witcher 2 Enchanched Edition

    This. Unless you're talking more about the sci-fi setting, that is.

    Go with Alpha Protocol, or go back in time and play some Knights of the Old Republic. That's the closest game you'll find to ME.

    i ment that where you aim and shoot to hit the target is based on the statistics of your character instead of the where you target is where it lands.

    walking dead episode one and 2 (video game not tv show) this is a short and not very graphical and not very big to explore, in fact you can't explore at all. but its only five dollars a episode and the choices thing is a lot like mass effect. you can get off the xbox live game marketplace

    I have played Dragon Age 1 & 2, Witcher 2 Enhanced Edition, Alpha Protocol, The Walking Dead episode 1 and 2, and Deus Ex: Human Revolution. All of except for DA2 were good games.

    So I guess that there really isn't a game out currently that is like the Mass Effect games in sci-fi rpg that is in space with starships except for an older game series? I guess that I will have to try out Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic games since there isn't much of a choice.

    There is nothing modern that is comparable, really...

    Try out Knights of the Old Republic, it's a very good game and it has that space-travelling feel to it as well.

    Right, I figured that's what you meant. I guess we just had different expectations for the game

    Well the only other Sci-fi RPG I can think about is Star Ocean the Last Hope but it isn't like Mass Effect.
