Though, mind you, he was quite bullish on Saints Row 2. And he's his own guy...he doesn't have any pretensions to making his reviews objective or trying to hide his own preferences.

Though I actually think the vehicle sections of ME1 would've been tolerable if they'd had a terrain overlay for the mini-map. Once I started planning flat-ish routes using the terrain markers on the big map, the shocks-gone-wild physics stopped being a proble...you wouldn't drive a *real* car straight up the side of the mountain and complain about the ride being too bumpy.
