Sometimes you come accross as borderline evil you do know that right?

Oh, come onnn.  Remember taking Wrex and Garrus to fight the rachni queen?  Legion on the Flotilla?

CONFLICT.  SQUADMATE B*TCHING.  TOTALLY WORTH IT.

Actually hes such a hothead I can see him at odds with Miranda too. Garrus wont like him very much either me thinks (depending maybe on if you allowed Garrus to kill Sidonis or not).

Eh, it's okay if no one on the ship likes him.  My Shepard will love him.

... in the gay way.

You wonder why we love you so much

Meh, I won't really judge until I meet him in ME3 and won't fly into a rage about how he's "OMFG ANOTHER MEAT HEAD GOW RIPOFF BAAWWWWWWW" like some people are. :|

Who here is saying that?

I'm saying that he looks like he'd fi into the Gears universe, whether or not his presonality will fit in, remains to be seen.

Seems to me Anderson set Vega to guard Shep so the two could get to know each other. From the looks of it, Vega could use a serious mentor, and Shep fills that roll perfectly.

Get to know each other or "get to know each other"?

In a purely plutonic he's my brother from another mother kinda way, my Shep isn't gay.  I also figured that mentor kinda summed it up.  Vega seems to be a down on his luck needs a moral boost, and Shep is at the top of his game taking one for the team, so to speak.  So stick the two together, let Vega learn a few dozen things, give Shep something to do while he is sitting in handcuffs (on his own ship btw, that annoys me) and let the two bond.  Seems reasonable.

I really hope you were meaning to make those five double entendres, maybe I'm just up too late

Got news for you guys:

If he didn't have some sort of troubled past then he'd be Jacob Taylor. Just sayin.

Anything but another Jacob. Anything.

No sarcasm, I'm dead serious here.

Considering the atrocity Shepard caused, those bats were completely justified in roughing Vega up, at least after his little "TV stunt".

"Roughing him up"? They came at him with military knives. He's completely unarmed. The first batarian attacks him with a knife, and James turns his own weapon against him. Then the six of them surround him. They start telling him what they're going to do to him, and he attacks before they're finished with their speech - what's the point of waiting for them to kill him. They're using knives, he doesn't use any weapons.

You think they did nothing wrong? You seriously think it's okay to kill someone who implied to have insulted you?

I don't ever want to face even one person with a knife against unarmed me. And James fought seven. It was self-defence. Nobody forced them to attack him. Nobody forced them to continue fighting him. They just keep chasing him down.

I only saw one knife in the whole fight which got embedded into a guy's chest shortly into the fight, I think I saw a gun but it certaintly wasn't the guy Vega tackled and if they didn't shoot him that seems to be an indicator that they weren't just going straight up kill him. They do make a threat, after Vega says "I do look better than you" when he is asked if he thinks he's better than them. Keep in mind the fight started between him and two Batarians, who he dispatched quickly then the others came in after he murdered one with a TV knife, then he proceeded to tackle one of them off the balcony, (probably) killing himm too. So the Batarians are mad, poor little James Vega, hated for no reason.

[marshalleck]

Self-defense isn't murder.

Hardly surprising that in the mission to be as politically correct as possible, people will go so far as to excuse an unprovoked lethal seven to one attack on an individual as long as the seven are perceived to be 'victims' of stereotyping, even in a perfect example of fulfilling the stereotype.

Neither of the batarians that attacked him initially had a gun. Look at the comic again, if the TV wasn't in it's way, that knife was going straight into Vega's face. I'm pretty sure that would be lethal.

[SandTrout]

Was Vega justified in smashing the TV? No, but he offered to pay for it with his game winnings. Was he justified in used lethal force to defend himself? Most certainly.

[albafica]

 james will probably be a useless character just like jacob,besides who would play with him if u save garrus etc etc

[Inquisitor Recon]

Must everybody on Shepard's squad have some sort of psychological trauma? Seriously!

That is, until Anderson shows up to provide him with an opportunity, as he clearly admires Vega's skill as a soldier. Turns out Shepard has turned himself in only days after the events of Arrival, and Anderson chose Vega to guard Shepard.
 

I have garrus to protect me so no thx

[Inquisitor Recon]

Guarding an imprisoned Shepard? That is just asking to have your face smashed into a wall when Shepard breaks out of jail.

Anderson isn't the guy you want looking out after you it seems.

Have you read any of the other threads that mention Vega?

How do you figure? Shepard appears to have turned himself in to face the consequences of his actions. My guess is Anderson has recruited Vega to watch out for Shepard so nothing happens to him while in custody. One surly individual such as Vega would be a perfect choice to keep him safe until he gets to the trial and perhaps beyond.

A lot of people don't like the idea of their Shep submitting weakly to imprisionment. They would rather go down guns blazing and fists flailing, me included.

Well, since we already know that ain't gonna happen why not assume the logical tact?
