Yes. I did not start playing the first one until 2010...but it is worth every penny. I wish they were re-released on next gen, which will probably happen soon. Despite what people have said about the third installment's ending, it is an amazing franchise. Everything is superb; music, characters, locations, factions, alien species- it will surpass the lore of anything you have played before if you put the time into it. ME1 can feel a little outdated and clunky gameplay-wise. Prepare to waste hours upon hours of your life...it is the pinnacle of a sci-fi game done right. I miss it...just listen to this. All the feels...
