I could never put the guys in Phoenix armor. xD I just can't imagine them... actually agreeing to wear it. And I like to keep Garrus in something that has a blue color scheme, to match his colony markings. Just like I keep Wrex in red to match his headcrest. And those were the colors of their original armors, so it's kind of the "iconic" version to me. Maybe when I eventually play one of the FemSheps I've started planning out (yes, another one) who's a real tough girl that always wears pink armor, she'll have the might and the crazy sense of humor to make this happen.

Also, for any of you who have trouble finding good names for your Shepards, I suggest behindthename.com - you can search through a big list by the letter, origin, meaning, most popular, ect.

Thanks for the compliments you guys <3

I actually didn't  have much of a problem thinking of a name for my shep. Jane already seemed fitting (since I constantly think of Shep's alt ego as Kathyrn Janeway) So I thought of my next favorite space faring red head.

I don't know how many of you know Lexx but I absolutely loved Zev/Xev XD My shep is always a red head, I chose Xev naturally. It was unique and short enough for me to go with it. I really don't like going over the top for names for my sheps. I always imagine them as short, somewhat uncommon, unisex names. Names that aren't necessarily 'pretty' but are appealing by those three attributes.

All my Femsheps are either my nickname or "Zoe," because I worked Xmas casual one year and the department store could never get my name badge right so I ended up nabbing a spare badge and I was "Zoe" for the retail Xmas period.

If I ever make a dudeShep he will be a Zed and he and Garrus with be BROS 4 LYF.

My next Mass Effect playthrough (straight from the first game to the last) will be with a MaleShep who romances Tali. Garrus and Wrex are his bros, of course. :)

Nah, I still like the idea of exclusive romance options. No offense.

Agreed. Personal main reasons in case of Garrus: 1. My Garrus-romancing FemSheps are already suspicious of half the galaxy during ME and the beginning of ME2 (+ X percent extra due to the Asari), no need to upset them more. 2. I already feel weird playing FemSheps who don't romance Garrus - if he was an option for MSheps, I'd have the same problem, just with all other romances.
Though I admit that this point of view is a little unfair and mainly based on the fact that I walk around with two X chromosomes.

Aha don't worry ;) I don't intend to promote the idea for Garrus/MaleShep. Can't picture it, at all. Do. Not. Want.

:whistle:Too busy promoting S/S for another dextro partymember :wub:

Needless to say, the broosity between Garrus and MaleShep is monumental.

FemShep don't need to worry about her brother MaleShep stealing Garrus from her. Even though MaleShep is a potential Kirk just like FemShep. Garrus is only interested in one human: FemShep. But there are more turians out there for MaleShep, Solana Vakarian for example.

I only pair Garrus with FemShep. Her wearing the Collector armor during cuddles is funny though.
@Terror: Have you seen the "Zombie Garrus" images in the OP yet? I think you might find them amusing.

I like this idea. Garrus' best friend and his sister. :)

Really? xD Oh well, it's hard to tell them apart. Hopefully her own squad doesn't shoot her while she's dressed up like the enemy.

"Zombie Garrus" is what happened when switching Shepard's character model for his goes wrong. It's hilarious.

Eh i'm a supporter of options for everyone so long as its written well. Then again its pretty much too late now anyways.

Also never been a fan of those cabin options...was kinda hoping there'd be more to it, like cutscenes and dialogue depicting things after the SM.

Another conversation after the suicide mission would have been nice, I think only Tali and Jacob had one. The main problem people seemed to have was Garrus repeating a random line from before the final romance scene, which sometimes worked well (it was the "I haven't forgotten what we talked about" line in my game), but more often than not turned out badly (a lot of Garrusmancers here got the "Are we crazy to be doing this?" line). I don't know if the other romances have this issue as well.

I like the cuddle scenes though. :) Garrus and FemShep look adorable together.

Yeah... Garrus kept asking me after the game was finished whether I still wanted to get it on with him, the one where you have a yes/no option. It was like he was in denial that it actually happened or something :P

I miss the cuddles in ME3. I was looking forward to a non-spastic version of them, but nope, it's just drunk Tali.

I was lucky to get the line that I did. A couple others have managed it too, and at one point, we all tried listing exactly what we did in our playthroughs to see if we could figure out what triggered it, but I don't think we ever found an answer.

The cuddles never seemed awkward to me. What system do you play on? It looks fine on my Xbox.

Some ME3 cuddles and / or other romance-specific repeatable scenes (dancing ME style perhaps?) would have been great, I agree.

About Garrus' last dialogue: I know of two versions, the "I have some diagnostics to finish, but I haven't forgotton what we talked about" one that I consider canon and the "I want to try it with you - YES/NO" repeat of the third romance dialogue which I'd consider buggy.
In my personal experience, I get the "true" dialogue when I do the romance as normal, but stop talking to Thane and Jacob one dialogue after their respective loyalty missions. Sure, that does not make any sense, gameplaywise or whatever, but on my system, with my chars and my usual playstyle, I can repeat this and get the same results any time. Once I tried 'saving' side missions to be able to get the rest of the dialogues of Thane and Jacob after the Suicide Mission, while testing when or if Garrus' dialogue switched. It indeed did, so I'd guess (and it's only that, a guess) that one of Jacob's or Thane's later dialogue options can cause a bug that makes Garrus default to his pre-Suicide-Mission dialogue.

Yeah, that first one you listed is the line from my playthrough. I think it's a repeat of what Garrus says when you've completed all romance dialogue before the final scene, but it fits just as well there. Especially the "diagnostics" mention -  the Normandy did take some damage, after all.

I finished all of Thane's conversations, but only played out a couple of Jacob's. FemShep's flirty tone was annoying.

I noticed that I got the "I haven't forgotten what we talked about" line after making sure I wasn't interested in neither Jacob nor Thane. Basically Garrus was the only romance I could still pursue and I couldn't reject him anymore. Not that it was a bad thing...

As for S/S options, I love the fact that they exist, but I don't think everybody should be bi, it makes picking your character's gender closer to being purely decorative, and for me choosing to play as a male or a female is your first RP choice. But that's off topic, shutting up now.
