No Shepard Without Vakarian: Garrus Love and Turian Discussion

On the other hand, I don't care all that much for Tali and Liara either--just feels like it would make sense for Tali to return for the third game. Garrus, Wrex, and Mordin are the only ones I feel particularly strongly about. Especially Garrus.
As boring as the new ME2 cast was for me, however, I think it's a shame that some random dude-bro they just made takes up a spot that could've been given to an already established character. I'm just glad Garrus is back though.

What I'd really like, would be to play as Saren, with Garrus and Nihlus backing me up.
Speaking of Nihlus...

So here's a question for everyone, if you had to pick a squad of 5 who would you choose? I'm just curious who everyone's favourites are
Well I guess for me it depends if youre asking for a squad (ten I'd pick who Isee working together as a team best) or who I want to see in ME3 (then I would probably pick some characters who butt head with my Shep cause I want a good story)
My dream team would be Garrus, Wrex and Mordin (like everyone else) then probably Samara and Miranda. I fellthey would be profesional enough to get things done and dont hate each other when were in the shuttle.
As for who Im excited to see in ME3 theres Garrus and Wrex of course, then I want to see what happens to Jack (my Shep has high hopes for her) and to Miranda (i love the rivalry). Last one would be Joker. I miss his brand of humor.
I have nothing against Tali or the VS being on the Normandy but I dont miss them that much.

Mine would be:
1) Garrus (not a surprise
2) Wrex (Garrus and Wrex were my running team in ME1's canon PT)
3) Tali (I like her. *shrug*
4) Mordin - because he is a very model of a scientist Salarian *song stuck in head* (He's just that awesome!)
5) Tough call - probably Jack or Liara.

But since that's probably never gonna happen... my Awesome Force Five would consist of
1. Garrus
2. Wrex
3. Legion
4. Tali
5. Mordin

1. Garrus
2. Kasumi
3. Wrex
4. Mordin
5. Miranda
I just think all five of them are awesome, both in terms of character and combat usefulness. I'm a little sad that it looks like Garrus is the only one from that list who will actually be a squadmate for a large portion of the game, but at least my Shepard will have her favourite turian by her side through all the fighting.

That's what's hard for me in narrowing it down - I forget other of my favorites like Kasumi. I really do like her.

But I do love everyone. Even Jacob!
I wasn't that excited about Vega either, but I think he's growing on me.

Wow I've missed so much! I would comment on ALOT of stuff - but it might break the post reply box of its sheer amount of words. I'll stick to current.
Its was Rebel666 ;P And I told her she got the RL Paramour achievementObsydian wrote...
and that picture of Shep and Garrus? the cosplay one? That was one of us in there....can't remember who. cause i'm a tool.lol
She also has a DA , where the pic [among others] can b found.
She and I might even end up playing ME3 together XP CHARRRRGGGGGEEE! *leeroy jenkins style*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Gameinformer article - I got mine early this week and Im avoiding the article XD I just read the non-spoiler section. 6 pg spread full of spoilers about the 1st couple hours - PASS! I DID scan the article for any sentence with "Garrus" in it though.....nothing. I also just looked at the pics/captions. Way to water my appetite for March 6.....UGH! XP
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As for 5 squaddies? Here's mine! GARRUS FORCE FIVE! Apparently 5 Garrus' is too much epicness for anyone to withstand, so random Mordin!
.....well - Hyrule didnt say 5 DIFFERENT squadmates.....*likes finding lope holes*

1. Garrus- I brought him almost everywhere in ME1 and ME2.
2. Wrex- I always brought him and Garrus everywhere I went in ME1
3. Zaeed- Strong fighter, and I like him despite him being a d*ck. I liked to bring him and Garrus in quests where I fought mercs (particularly the Blue Suns), because I'm sure they'd both appreciate the opportunity
4. Miranda- Another strong fighter.
5. Wildcard. Maybe Kaidan for added drama with Garrus? If my Shepard's not feeling dramatic, maybe Liara or Kasumi depending on which skills would be most helpful.
Edit: Fixed typo on the last line.

For those that dont keep up with IGN - they ADORE mass effect [claimed it as the #1 game of our generation for example] and in anticipation of ME3 - they made a Top 10 BEST Mass effect teammates article.
I'll give you all a hint as to who got the #1 spot......*points to her avy*
The FIRST words in his description is more than enough, and the end is pretty sweet.
"The ultimate badass of the Mass Effect series, Garrus began his tenure in the series as a stoic man (or rather Turrian) of action, bound by honor and appreciation for the law. However, his personal honor code is turned on its head come Mass Effect 2, where we find Garrus as a fugitive vigilante, taking out criminals and seeking revenge against the former squadmate that wronged him. Any way you slice it, Garrus is simply an awesome counterpart to Shepard, and hands down the best supporting character in the franchise."
Well said IGN. Well said indeed.
Score another for Garrus Vakarian being #1 on yet another gaming journalist site.
Celebrate!

On a side note if I were to hypotheticaly get a pic with 3 or 4 turians in a cross over scenerio?what would be 3 or 4 games that you would like to see a Turian crossover in? Right now, most likely I aim be mixing Turians with SSX! other ideas would be loved!

Thanks for sharing! I love reading that. A well developed character like Garrus definitely deserves the recognition. He's my Shep's Space Batman.

1. Garrus: Her best friend and main man. Solid backup leader.
2. Ashley or Miranda: Her 'sister' figure[s], who she spends more time fighting then actually getting along with.
3. Vega: [for script spoiler reasons]
4. [SPOILER]: She feels a kinship with this character
5. Kasumi: Most people want to be Shepard. My Shepard wants to be Kasumi.
Although her pool of 'people she likes' is quite a bit larger. Jack and Tali she'd probably keep out of her squad through somewhat misplaced big-sister motives. Mordin seems better in a noncombat role. She's also pretty cool with Liara.
There's really not a lot of characters I dislike, so I'm pretty much like, "BRING ON ALL THE PEOPLES."

Pyn, those are cool pictures. I like that Saren statue. Too bad I can't have it in-game (because it's DLC). MainShep is so jealous. Everyone else has a Saren statue, badass merc, and gets to kill off many more batarians than her.
I haven't watched the different language Garrus/Shepard yet, but I'd like to ask if anyone has a video of Russian Shepard? I've always imagined one of my MaleSheps with a Russian accent, so I'm curious to see it.
We're not allowed to post magazine scans here, just so you know. But there is a thread in General Discussion that sums up the article. I read it while I was waiting for my Game Informer.txmn1016 wrote...
I scanned the GI article for someone on the boards but won't post it here because of serious spoilers. It's not great quality, but if anyone wants the link free to PM me

That would be the most awesome playthrough ever. But seriously, the choices would change depending on the Shepard I'm playing, how "possible" the choices need to be, and how much spoilers I knew at the time. I'll post the team that I wanted most before I read the spoilers, which I believed to be a good possibility -
1. Garrus
2. Tali
3. Thane
4. Jack
5. Grunt
Honorable mention: Zaeed, in the game and not as DLC
Wrex is not on the list because after ME2, I loved his role as leader of the krogan so much that I wouldn't change it, except to be a temp squadmate "just like old times."
Arcana, I saw that article too! It's so cool that Garrus got #1.

Actually, I'm going to need some confirmation on this first. Those of you who want the Garrus spoilers, were you only talking about the break-up lines, or his whole part of the script? Because if it's just the break-up lines, I'll copy and paste them from the link so you guys don't have to look through everything else to find them.The Sarendoctrinator wrote...
@everyone who wants the Garrus spoilers: I'll PM them to you guys in a minute.
