Mass Effect log pt2

I finished the game :\ I don't get it, I thought it was supposed to be long and deep and massive, but I finished it in about 25 hours.

Ok, let's reassess that sentence so I can maybe get a better appreciation of the scope. Most mainstream games are built to last, what? 12 hours? 10? 5? I guess I'm too used to endless games that are meant to be repetitive (TF2 and CS:S). 25 hours is a pretty good length. I was just expecting more I guess, cos I did a lot of side quests.

Ah well, final stats:
Female Soldier
Paragon
Love interest was Liara
Main party members were Garrus and Liara
Level 35 I think, I stopped checking after 27

Now, I can either try to justify the $40 for Mass Effect 2, or I can work on another game on my to-do list. I think I'll play the Oddworld series next.
