Random plug! don't forget if you play the MP to go join the Talons! Garrus-Turian centered MP Group founded by our own Rannin social.bioware.com/group/6985/http://social.bioware.com/group/6985/


This is a great group and I hope I get to play with you guys.  So far I've been playing with a bunch of Kaidan fans, and while I love all of them, I'm getting tired of the Garrus related MP conversations (i.e., how can Garrus be attractive? He's an alien! How does sex even work? etc.).


le gasp! you poor thing :( which platform are you on?


I'm on Xbox.  And I'm not saying anything bad about them because they're all amazing people.  I just don't like the Garrus bashing.  He's my fella and I don't like any trash talk!
Also I usually play with my lvl 20 turian sentinal..because da**, they are just too much fun!

Stupid Bioware, they're just being lazy and trying to cop out on making a different model for female aliens -_- as much money as they make they can't seriously just freaking make them?



The issue is that the game is also being ported to consoles, who suffer from severe technology-lag. PC's are basically 5+ years ahead. While PC players do get some extra eye candy such as crisper textures (and hence sexier full-HD Garrus) there still won't be any females / children to be seen ingame any time soon - unless Microsoft/Sony finally get their next play-bricks out.



The life action trailer looked neat... but my inner geek ruined it by gushing during the making-of "SQUEE HIGH POLY MODELS!!! ANIMASHUNNN! CAN I RIG THIS?"

Have to re-watch it again to see whether they were using Maya, 3DS or something else. Just because. <3

If anyone was thinking about picking up a kinect--I just saw this offer from Gamestop:

Pre-order ME3 at GameStop and suit up with the latest weapon in the war to save the Earth; a Kinect Sensor! Everyone who picks up their pre-order at a participating GameStop retail location between March 6 and March 11, 2012 will get $50 off a Kinect sensor. In store only, not redeemable online.

Apparently the sensors are going for 99.99 right now, the $50 off knock it down to half the price.

Damn you all if that's wrong, because I actually went EEE at the thought that Gavorn is a turian chick.

Ohpleaseohpleaseohplease.

I'm actually pretty excited about NOT sexual dimorphism and vocal difference in my video game.


The vorcha you speak to on Omega say "Tell Gavorn we know HIS tricks"...so unless they're confused on the gender-issue as well, I doubt very highly he is a she.  Also, Gavorn is voiced by a dude (Gideon Emery, in fact!) - I don't think Bioware would be d!cks enough to have females both look like AND sound like men, haha.

I fully support gay!Gavorn, though.  :wub:

Haha all that constant vigilance!!  You're doing a good thing for the universe though!  It took me a while to get the hang of it what, with all the freaking things you have to keep control of..... but I'm like a raging rager out there now, I like it so much:O

Do you have a turian yet?  EDIT:  That'll come a little later on, duh.

Oh yeah, silver is beyond hard even with 4 experienced players.  Hopefully you can play on Bronze with beefed up team members to survive while you get experience.  Get better soon!

Time to go stand next to Gavorn on my Shepard and stare at him/her until I figure out what sort of tricks that turian is up to.

I'd almost like it more if they used male voice actors for female turians, just because... well, that's unexpected. Who does that? That'd be AWESOME. But I might be in a minority here. Gay Gavorn is fine, too. Or hell. Maybe the human is just a buddy and we're reading too much into it.

But I really hope Gavorn's a woman and we just didn't notice.

Isn't he a bareface? Or did I miss the markings? Nothing good if he is.

Well physically, Garrus is certainly... interesting, very exotic but I don't think he's all that attractive. It's his voice and his personality that I like.  Of course, I'm of the thought process that physical looks don't matter all that much, the personality outshines and outlasts looks just about all the time.

^This! Totally agree with ya, Yoji, that about sums up my thoughts on the matter.

Besides, something I don't understand about people who like to bash on the Garrus romance is that they are failing to recognize that these characters - Shepards of various incarnation - are not ourselves. Would -I- throw myself at Garrus? Probably not. Sorry, but haven't been surrounded by aliens for years and years, working with them, living with them, risking life and limb with them... to me it'd still be "Holy sh*t! Alien! O.O".

My Shepard, on the other hand, has gotten increadibly acclimated to aliens of all sorts. She's known Garrus for a long time. She's lived with him on the same ship. Risked life and limb with him at her side? Yeah. Throw in the personality, the voice... and I can see this woman who is my version of Shepard falling for him and an attraction that grows from the mental/emotional to the physical.

In short: People too often underestimate that the biggest sexual organ is the brain.

Nice to see im not the only Garrus fan who sees a diffrence between appreciating Garrus as a character and Shep's romance with him ! He is adorable and estheticacly pleasing to look at but like you said I wouldnt throw my self at him. To me he belongs to shepard because of what they shared together.

Ooh, shiny MP group. /joins

Such a shame that so many people can't get past Garrus' physical appearance to see the sizzling hunk of turian man beneath. I have a Kaidanmancing friend, and there's no end to the grief she gives me about it :D

People think that ^ is ugly? People think the space Batman (a marginally more sane Batman) with the joygasmic voice is ugly? Me and two of my friends think Garrus is hot, and hot Garrus shall forever be!

End of true story.
