TIM's actions can't be defended. You don't kill, tinker with or experiment on the very ones you claim to be saving.  The case can't be made, hypothetically or otherwise so long as the his past isn't marginalized he's a evil one.

Oh really? A lot of clinical trials of modern day medicine seem to contradict that.

Modern science has ethics. Cerberus scientists, not so much.

^EDI: Shepard, I'm the Normandy.

This would be the scene where my two thu- squadmates would carry EDI out an airlock.

Don't question how'd that work.

smudboy: That's a plothole!

Why does that sentence end with an exclamation point? Smudboy talking in a non-monotone, emotional way is unheard of.

Yeah, this.  There are a lot of federal regulations surrounding human trials in medicine (not in every country, but in places countries like the U.S. and Canada).  Cerberus, however, has no such accountability.

The Thorian was minding it's own business until Exogeni and Saren started disturbing and pissing it off. Then Shepard and his gang of thugs brutally murdered the poor plant in it's own home.

The "poor" plant was enslaving a human colony.

That was a defence mechanism, the thorian wasn't a malicious being.

Modern science has ethics up to the point where the gain outweighs the concerns.  I won't go into specifics as it's not ME related, but rest assured bad things have and do happen all over the world in the name of science.  That said, Cerberus is more like the evil scientists from your typical B-Grade monster movie.  They have no ethics at all and almost always screw it up.

As to the actual topic at hand, I would gladly help Aria get revenge on TIM.  Yeah, she's a thug, but more than that, she's a businesswoman.  Her evil deeds won’t jeopardize the entire galaxy.  In fact, her deeds probably help fuel the galaxy.

Amen to that.  Aria's at least trustworthy in that you always know how she's going to behave - which is to say in her own best interests.  I don't know if I'd trust her as a squadmate, since that requires a different sort of trust, but at least in business deals you can find ways of working with her.

Reading this from the laboratory where I'm doing theoretical chemistry research in the search for Alzheimer inhibitors has a certain degree of ironic charm.

Interesting cover for the December Issue of Invasion:

  and alternate cover:

Looks like Aria will be losing her Omega station for good. This means Aria may side with either Shep or TIM. What do you guys think?

Okay, I'm definetly interested.

I would trust Aria when it comes to going after Cerberus.  That is a deal Aria would do with Shepard.  Or I think so anyway.

Maybe he got his ass pretty badly kicked and needed to be rebuilt after the fight with Aria?

I like Leng better in that promo pic where he looked like Bucky.

When did TIM kill, tinker or experiment on humans?

Right, cuz even though Cerberus is the Illusive Man's clandestine organization, he should not be held responsible for anything it does. He's the universe's most secretive and well-funded incompetent boss. That's the ticket.

That's like saying the CEO of a corporation isn't responsible for what thier company does.  Sorry, but that doesn't fly.

I don't think fighting a biotic close range with a knife is a good idea, but if he manages to get it to work, good for him.
