Well what else are the marketing team going to say? Mass effect 3, the worst ending ever? "What the ****" -ANGRY JOE SHOW

There is nothing inherently wrong in what they said, but their timing sucks.

I agree, but doing anything but having a mass suicide pact at the studio with confession note will always ****** some people off.

And those people are horrible. Surely there must be one person in the studio who could return it to its former glory if given the chance.

Now if it were EA making the pact....

EA would make the event pay per view

True - but it's infuriating to see EA/BW co-opt/spin fan disappointment to market the product that disappointed them in the first place.

It's akin to advertising a the 2007 Virginia Tech shootings as an "..expert display of marksmanship by a dedicated and focused individual."

Some places, you just don't go.

No. No it's not. In the one example, five minutes of a game were horrible. In the other PEOPLE DIED.   That's like comparing apples and THE HOLOCAUST.

I'd rather you called the ending of ME3 "The Star Wars Prequels of the Mass Effect Universe." Seems like an apt comparison.

You are correct - that was an incredibly poor and tasteless comparison on my part and I apologize for being crass.

Its not a problem really. Marketing teams will be marketing teams and it will not affect whatever they are developing for the Ex-cut dlc. We are here to remind them we have not forgotten, getting outraged over every thing that happens that is not directly related to the dlc is pointless

 Sooo, ME3 related.

Have you guys seen the new hoodies they are going to make?

On the brighter side, Witcher 2 Enhanced Edition comes out this week and it looks like it's going to be amazing. They rebuilt the ending as well, which to be honest was too abrupt. Looks like CD Projekt has taken over Bioware's place as my favorite developer.

Love the mordin one. Actual game merchandise I wouldn't mind wearing outside. But that ending. Damn you bioware.

*edit*

Love the tali one too but that one would feel so wrong to wear as a male :!

Yup. It's technically true. Even if the quality of the review scores is suspect, and the nature of the fan reaction was decidedly negative.

Is this legit? i have seen this going around yesterday a bit aswell, i didnt get any answers if it was fake or real, i just assumed it was fake, since EA would never be so dense.... But i guess EA really is that stupid?
This is becoming borderline bullying... "haha, see that *vocal minority*... lets make fun of them..."
