If you get the chance I would recommend playing them in order but in all honesty the first one can get pretty boring at times, plus the graphics make it look a little dated but if you stick with it it's a very satisfying game and even despite it's drops in action at certain points not to hard to get through unlike a game like Fallout.

Second one is easier to get into as it's much more streamlined then the first and it has a very good story.

The game gives you the option to import your character from the previous version or select the choices you made in previous games via a comic that activates before you customize your character.

Another thing I like about it is the difficulty allows people like me who care more about the story to breeze through the combat while giving hardcore players the option to make it challenging.

And the best selling point for Mass Effect......side boob.

I played the first one and felt like it was really hard to target and shoot people; like almost painful to do so

Yeah, like a lot of early 360 games the gameplay was unpolished. The second is a lot more streamlined and action oriented.
