Yes your argument comparing games that have nothing to do with one another is the supreme example of the perfect debate winning line.
I'll say it again, a game that has similar mechanic isn't a ripoff. I remember shooting in gears of war, totaly ripping off grand theft auto. Metroid prime has tricky 3d platforms, totally stealing from mario 64, If the game for you was 50% combat, then I doubt you did any exploration, because I remember those sections in GoW where I flew to another space colony, or in Mass Effect 2 where I threw those grenades before chainsawing a guy in half. Little note, or of the most fun challenges I had was going as a biotic and seeing how far I could get without firing a single bullet only using a gun when I had to, and I can garuntee it wasn't very often, I remember that from GoW. I'm not going to argue for story or cutscens as it is obvious you are trolling there.
But don't worry, just go back to heavy rain because for you the game was mired down by too many sections where you actually play it.
If you like, I could go through the entire game for you, listing off FACTS where the game is just a near constant barage of shooter gameplay?
This isnt an argument, its me stating facts, and you stating falsehoods. The only reason you are suggesting "trolling" is because you are a butthurt fanboy who doesnt like to see ME2 being criticised (fairly common occurance) and starting off by claiming I havent played the game has led me to use language like I have done just previously.
Like I said though, I can give you a runthrough of the entire game, listing off where cover shooting is the most of it.
You see, in ME1, you have to set aside large amounts of the game where it doesnt involve just tedious cover shooter combat. You know, like the multiple visits to the citadel, going through port hanshan, or finding out about the colonists on Feros etc. Time where the devs didnt think "shit, we havent used our Gears clone combat in the last 10 minutes, get back to it, NOW!"
