I’m about 7 hours into Mass Effect and I’m struck by one thing.  Not the conversations or the combat.  It’s the elevator rides.  This game has the best damn elevator rides that I have ever played.  Oh, it also has the most elevator rides in a game that I’ve ever played.

Yes, I’ve played Elevator Action.  Mass Effect has more elevator rides than Elevator Action.  Mass Effect has more up and down action than this website after the Digg Effect.

Normally, games just zip right through the elevator ride. Not in Mass Effect!  Nope, in this game you’ll ride on elevator after elevator in slow, excruciating 720p. 

Most games have only one or two elevator rides, at the most.  Not in Mass Effect!  You can’t go friggin anywhere without partaking in the stand and stare meditation, known as the elevator ride.  You’ll Stand!  You’ll Stare!  You’ll wait silently, for what seems like an eternity, for that door to open… All in the name of Fun!

That’s why Mass Effect is the winner of the Sarcastic Gamer’s Elevator Ride Simulator of the Year!

Congratulations!

There was a lot of competition, but in the end, with over 5 plus hours of just standing in an elevator, it was a no brainer.

Way to pad out your game length in such a creative way Bioware!  That’s why you’re Sarcastic Gamer’s Elevator Simulator of the Year!

If you’re an elevator enthusiast, Mass Effect is a must buy!
