If Shepard was a spacer in ME1, then there was a chance that the player could meet his/her mother. Yet, very little is mentioned at all about Shepard's father.

So, without the basis of evidence, I think it is quite likely that the Illusive Man is Shepard's father, and mid-way through ME3, as the player confronts TIM in his hideout, TIM walks out and declares himself to be Shepard's father. Just like what they did in that Star Wars movie.

Why is this possible? It is a well-used plot device. Also, it would probably explain why the Illusive Man bothered to bring back Shepard: he wants his daughter/son back.

Well, if this were to be the case, I hope daddy dearest doesn't mind me warp bombing him into atmo.

I just thought that Spacer Shep's dad died some time before the game began.

Also, if this happens, I will laugh my ass off.

It'd be really weird if you made a black Sheperd only to find out your parents are white as white can be...

Earth's all culturally and racially mixed. Stranger things have happened.

Tim:  Luke (Shepard)  I am your father!
Luke Shepard:  "noooooooooooooo"

When Bioware said they had Luke twist in the game I dont think they meant literally.  :P

There will be a twist with Shepard and TIM but I think Bioware can be a bit more creative then using a well established plot from another sci-fi movie.

Oh wait they used the Terminator at the end of ME2 didnt they :whistle:   ;)

Well, maybe the ancestors of Shepard's mother and TIM had intermarried between races generations ago. It happened in South Africa once. Two white people had a black child. During Apartheid.

I suppose. But then you look at people like Jacob, who clearly looks kinda hyrbridish anyways, but still presumably has black parents. <_>

Completely possible. TIM sounds like the guy who would do that.

I'm mixed race myself... you'd be surprised at the many shades we can take, even in one family. ;)

OMG, are you f***ing serious, man?
This is what I was afraid of. Mass Effect slowly turns into a brazilian TV series in the minds of indoctrinated people. We must find a cure! Shepard must authorize release!
Wow, a new meme.

Metaphorically, TIM brought Shpard back from the dead so, in a way, he could be viewed as Shepards father. Of course, this would mean, Miranda could be viewed as Shepards mother. So.. If Shepard romanced Miranda, oedipus complex. Eww!

Why did you make me go there?

Well with Spacer and Colonial Sheps, the parents could have been foster parents who adopted Shepard as a baby...

But I hope this plot twist stays with Star Wars.

ME3 will NOT involve these sick mindplot twists, or I shall delete it from my computer instantly as that happens. Leave this sh*t for housewives! I want an action game with elements of drama, not a love drama with elements of action.
*sigh*
