I liked the first one, but it was very similar to KNIGHTS OF THE OLD REPUBLIC, with a similar plot and even some similar graphical styles (even the CGI in the final battle was extremely similar to KotOR, both ending with a massive alien artefact needing to be blown up by tons of ships whilst you're fighting inside it). The random missions were awful and controlling that jeep was ridiculously lame. Once you got past all of that, it got pretty decent, but then ended way too soon. BioWare's shortest game apart from JADE EMPIRE. All in all, well below BioWare's usual standards for me (having play every BioWare game right back to BG1).
That said, it sounds like ME2 will be a stronger game with a better storyline and a somewhat grittier atmosphere.
I'm also looking forward to ALPHA PROTOCOL, DRAGON AGE and FALLOUT: NEW VEGAS. Also HALF-LIFE 2 EPISODE 3 if Valve actually ever release the damned thing.

There are a LOT of good games out right now.

It's getting to that point where the developers are confident with the technology

I'm definitely buying L4D2 and MW2. Maybe Dragon Age, Borderlands. Cave Story on WiiWare, too. *NM*

As long as ME2 is better than the first one.

The random missions were indeed awful, but I actually liked driving the jeep. . .

There was just something about the boost physics that captivated me.

It was at it's most fun when boosting up and landing back down on top of the Geth walkers...
