This week’s edition of Fast Forward Weekly includes my feature review of Mass Effect 2. Released a couple of weeks ago, the sequel to BioWare’s space opera is equal to the expectations placed upon it by critics and fans.

Mass Effect 2, the second instalment in a planned trilogy, takes place two years after Commander Shepard saved civilization from destruction by a horde of machines. This time, the fate of humanity lies in the balance, and the Commander is once again called upon to don the heroic mantle.
