Mass Effect Galaxy Review

Macworld joins the fray with a somewhat disappointing review of BioWare's first iPhone offering, Mass Effect Galaxy. The score is a 2.5/5, with this conclusion:
Like every EA Mobile game I run on my iPhone 3G, it crashes occasionally and sucks up your battery life pretty quickly (though not as fast as The Oregon Trail). It's not just the long load times that disjoint an immersive experience, but the lackluster combat, oddly unfinished animations, and constant loading. But despite all of these flaws, I still really appreciate that Bioware translated their science fiction world to a compelling (if brief) story with a beautiful art style. If they can only develop gameplay that is worth more than ten minutes of your time, then Mass Effect Galaxy wouldn't have already been deleted from my iPhone.
