Unlucky. :( I'll probably be able to play Thursday, if the PS3 version comes in the post then. Ordered from shopto and they're shipping Wednesday I think. Normally takes one day, with being first class. Will probably get the PC version at a later time, as I guess Zavvi may not get it to me for release (never pre-oredered with them before, but it's a good price. And I'm daft, i know, getting two versions but friends are on the PC. Yet I prefer a console controller. Do have the entire trilogy on the PC though, so that's something, or will have anyway...)


Well, I think the framerate will be better on PC. Image IPB
Might find you too if we get online. Image IPB Although, I don't know yet how much MP I'll play.

Did you hear the soundtrack yet? It has been uploaded by 1-2 (or more?) people on Youtube already. Image IPB


Sure, can always do some online play if you'd like, though I'm not a big voice chatter. Do have the ability to chat though. And yeah, framerate will definitely be better. That's my one complaint with the PS3 demo and I hear it's the same in the review copies and such, so... *shrugs* Hopefully the patch will fix it.

I haven't heard the soundtrack, no. What bits I have heard are either very similar to Mass Effect 1's music or they're exactly the same.

The plagiarization of Deus Ex by Bioware for the choice of endings is beyond disappointing.They might as well switched Sheppards name to Adam Jensen.


Deus ex machina

It's not plagiarisation but a plot device, like any other.


A plot device universally recognized as lazy and cheesey.


He was talking about the game, not the plot device. The endings are all pratically the same,

Where are you getting this information from? The thread you linked me to had nothing on that and everyone said no.

Copy and pasted from another thread....


Little did we all know we are in control of Jesus. All you have to do is walk around with medigel healing people and apparently you're Jesus.

How many apostles where there? 12? LOL ME2 characters: 12.

What I don't understand is this: If you kill a higher end reaper, the reapers under it get confused and stupid. Al the reapers are under the Guardian. Why not blow up the Guardian and just kill the reapers the old fashioned way while they're confused and stupid?


Because that makes no sense.


Not really, it would be something like Sovereign's moment of weakness after the death of the Saren husk.

Ok, it's agreed these endings blow. Is it possible in any capacity to create DLC that is viable for all these branched ending scenarios where we see Shepard simply rejoining his squadmates or LI? I mean they clearly don't care for avoiding plot holes or common sense. God help me I want to believe in some minute inkling that this can be salvaged.

@ crimzontearz What happy ending? Your two squadmates still stay on earth or no normandy crash? etc.?

Seeing as many of them involve Shepard dying then the answer must be no (I can't imagine DLC being made that'll only work for a limited number of players).

Please stop giving me hope, they said in all the playthroughs the squad mates always get on the normandy and crash. I asked, everyone said this was true.

Well, I find grimdark endings really artsy and I generally prefer them over ones filled with sunshine and lollipops. If the ending was all bright and happy, most of you will be complaining about how contrived it feels, even though the Reapers are described as the most incredible force of destruction ever.

I just don't like the lack of closure, that's all.


1) There's room between crapsack grimdark endings, and "rainbows".  Lots of room.

2) Billions dead, tens of billions suffereing, worlds on fire, intelligent species extinct or on the verge, general chaos and trauma.  Even if everyone on the Normandy lives, where is the rainbows and candy in that ending?

3) The Reapers are still just ships -- people, Bioware included, need to stop trying to make them into gods.

Source? It's impossible to get a score of more than 5000.

I totally agree with you - surely there has to be a way achieve this without much effort at all.

Perhaps Shepard offspring or a macguffin that brings him back from the dead. A parting message that suggests he and his LI did the dirty and his awesomeness continues for generations? I wish I could pull at straws but the overbearing logic in this weighs so heavily on my heart..... I never expected him to stay with space waifu but this.....

I really doubt that my Shepard's ultimate happy ending relies on a stupid fish. :lol:

You mean play as Shepard's kid? Like the ending of Red Dead Redemption? Nah that ending was too good for the writers at Bioware to come up with.

I'm not sure if its a happy ending, but apparently some ending depends on them.

to be honest, im not angry at the endings but im scoffing over the reveal, y'know, like why the reapers were doing what they did.

but some part of me, the inner moron within us all is making me think that this isn't true but only a massive conspiracy done by super elite russian hackers working for china.

You mean that thing mentioned on the guide? Sounds more like an easter egg.

Not even as awesome as RDR, just the indication that [insert LI here] carries Shepard's genetic code on ice/ is pregnant.]
