Maybe if BioWare outfitted him with a wizard hate and gave him the Staff of Ridiculous Name he's be accepted by these RPG purists.

As one of those "RPG purists" you're no doubt talking about, I don't give a frak what Vega looks like.  He's a big, tough-looking marine.  I accept him as such.

All I care about is:

A) does his outfit look more appropriate for a superhero or runway model than for a military officer?

and

B) Does his armor look painted on, or otherwise missing crucial pieces, like sleeves, helmet or chestpiece?

If the answer to both of these is "No"  then I have no problem with him in the game.  And from what little footage we've been shown, I'm not going to have a problem with him.

Even better, the description of him sounds like a character I'll want to hang around with too.  Bonus!

and fwiw, I'v enever played a Gears or War game, nor do I have any intention to.

Except Marcus Fenix was cool. This guy really looks like somebody you'd see on Jersey Shore.

I think Vega is the type of character that wants to learn from Shepard's actions like a student. A gears of war character lacks an enthusiasm of learning consequence when blowing up too many places like a Michael Bay film.

The irony behind the title of this thread is, if you visit his character thread in the other section of the forums, you'll find it mostly consists of hormonal fangirls who just want to get into his pants and post laughably bad fanart. Not exactly what you think of as the typical Gears of War fan. Then again, that may have more to do with that particular section of the forums (which is why I avoid it like the plague:sick:).

He's there to shatter your ignorant misconceptions of faux-hawked, spray-tanned dudes.

Not everything has to do with other video games. Sometimes, a character looks teh way he/she/it does because it makes sense to the character and teh story.

Indeed. He looks weird to me at first glance, but it *is* refreshing that he looks different, and I have no problem imagining that a certain Louise Shepard, Soldier, may go for him.

Give Jimmy meathead a chance. He may be kinda cool. At the very least, his body will make a good shield..

Yeah the critics are even more douchy than Vega being a douche...  Ironic isn't it?

From his last name I'm guessing he's latino, so that's probably his natural skin tone.

:devil:

Man, they've got you by the balls, don't they?  You probably don't even realize how full of marketing B.S. you sound anymore.  OF COURSE vega's designed to appeal to the mouth-breathing masses that BiowEAre is so desperate to sell zomg 10 million copies to.  Just like Miranda's catsuit, Ashley's ****-over and AEWSOME BUTTON!!1!1

Here's an idea for diversity:  How about they model the next character after you, Chris, and he can be a 400 lb. sphere that sits at his desk kissing corporate ass and spouting meaningless talking points all day.  Deal?

He definitely wouldn't stand out in gears. 275 pounds, a mohawk and a neck tattoo, yeah, that sounds about right.

I just realized; Sam from GoW3 has the same VA as Admiral Xen in ME3! This means pre-order cancellation!

Chalk up another person that can't be taken seriously.

The list keeps on growing, now sit down.

Well aren't you a horrible c.unt? Although in saying that I love to see what the scum of the internet has to say, it is interesting to see at the very least. 

Man, I can't wait for Vega and Mass Effect 3, it's going to be AWESOME!!

I'm not a Gears of War fan, in fact the character design is one of the things that put me off those games.

Vega though? He can pull me anywhere, anytime thank you very much. ;)

LOL what? Vega is a soldier, Improving his body is something he SHOULD be doing... I'm not sure what to say apart from "does he make you feel inadequate?".

Unless you people have an actual reason to not like the guy you all sound like sad people that are made that they have someone who doesn't look like a carbon copy of all the other guys in the game.

I'd hazard a yes to that, saying "looks like he's on roids"... no, a proper diet while having the determination to "find my limit" yes, roids no.  just because we are nerds doesn't mean we have to be fat or skinny, start low and stay focused BSN mates :)
