^ I wrote an answer, but just realized how long it was. So I split it up to a short and long version.

Short Answer: Mass Effect is a trilogy of science fiction role-playing video games. The third part was a major disappointment to fans everywhere, particularly the ending.

Long Answer: (don't know how to add spoilers so I did super-small text)
Mass Effect 1 and 2 were sci-fi role playing video games that take place throughout space. Kind of like Star Wars, Star Trek, except the main appeal is that you get to play a "role" (where ultimately the fate of everything ever is on you, as the main character, like Luke Skywalker or something). One pretty cool aspect is that saved data from one game could be recovered in each sequel, and in each game you had choices that were heavily emphasized to impact the story, the outcome, everything.

Or so we thought. By Mass Effect 3, everything that made the games appealing was abandoned entirely in an attempt to be more appealing to a wider audience. They copied already tried gameplay mechanics (Gears of War), and treated a mostly adult audience like children. They stripped away all choice in this game, and no matter your choices throughout the previous games, you end up in the same place at the finish, given a multy-choice of three endings to pick right on the spot (all three endings were ultimately the same exact shitty thing, no seriously, they copy-pasted each ending on each choice, look it up on youtube I am serious), giving the player a MASSive feeling of "I did all this for THAT!? WTF!!"

Even Hip-hop could not have saved this atrocious abomination of a game. I'd rather eat the rotten asshole of a road-kill skunk and down it with beer than play it ever again (AVGN reference).
