 I realize that at times, he is a bit shady, and definitely not to be trusted at other times, but in the long run, he seems to have the galaxy's best interests in him, albeit human interests. The man is a somewhat of a xenophobe, I agree. But sometimes, I look at it like this.

Alliance: not doing anything about missing colonies (even though it is outside of their jurisdiction)

Council: Refuses to believe in the Reapers (can't wait 'till ME3 and see the look on their faces); won't bother helping any colonies

Cerberus (Illusive Man): Resurrects Shepard; has him investigate the colonies; his means may be a bit risky (he almost gets Shepard killed) but it gets what they need; rebuilds the Normandy for Shepard; gives him dossiers on new and old crew members. 

I realize he is pretty evil, with his "The ends justify the means" doctrine. However, he isn't the bad guy ENTIRELY.

I think, like a lot of things in ME, he is neither 100% evil, nor 100% good. I still want to put a bullet between his eyes in ME 3 though. :)

That's kinda the point: he's supposed to be the morally ambiguous character. The one whose methods are suspect but claims he is doing it all for the good of mankind. Of course, most real life dictators responsible for murdering millions of people also claim that they did it for the good of the majority, that's kinda the trap. It's easy to say it's necessary when it's you making the decisions...

I may accept his methods if his goal really is human dominance. But "humans dominance - or just Cerberus?" - that's the question.

One of the favourite characters for developers' idea and those genius greyness in his plans, however. Definitely want to see in ME3
