Fine, you want to disprove IT? Want to make us look all like fools and make us acknowledge you as the superior intellect for not being fooled by our straw grasping? Fine. Disprove every piece of evidence we have gathered. Take your time.
You going to say you can't prove a negative? That is entirely true. But the fact is, you CAN disprove the evidence we have gathered to support our theory, thereby making all the ground it stands on shaky.
Prove how smart you are for us. Go ahead. We'll wait.

He is a hybrid organic/synthetic being with the Prothean cipher in his brain. Javik explains early on that memories are "stored" in organic tissue and the Protheans were able to figure out how to read that information. Is that what the Cipher actually is? Is that why Shep's cybernetically reconstituted body can remember everything that happened to him before he died? Or did Cerberus just bombard his subconscious brain with the description of memories so that if he woke up he would believe he was Shepard? However it happened, we the player don't even question that we are the original Shepard. Despite that fact that Shepard frickin DIED!!!
So unless Bioware is employing a form of spiritual magic as well as space magic, there is no possible way he came back from the dead. It's preposterous. So if it can't be true, then what is the alternative? What is he? Because he isn't the guy we played in ME1. Nuh-uh.
To me, that is where the player has been fooled all along. Reminds me of Revan in that respect. Shepard even foreshadows it himself on the Cerberus base when he hears Wilson telling TIM there's no way a brain dead that long could come back and he tells the squadmate "Maybe I'm just a high tech VI that thinks he's Commander Shepard."
So there you have it. I could be WAY off target with this. But as far as I'm concerned, you can't come back from the dead.

You know what really bugs me? What bugs me so much that I came up with the VR theory as making the most sense in conjunction with Indoctrination? The fact that Shepard is DEAD! And has been since the beginning of ME2. Dead. Dead. Dead.

Liara said she knew it was really me the first time she touched me again. She can meld minds, I think she of all people could tell if I was actually a high-tech VI.

I love that song, its the one of the few things that can get me through the endings, that, the flashes of joker, anderso and Liara and of course the Indoc theory.llbountyhunter wrote...

I thought that reaper tech was used on Shepard.

I get your point but I don't think we know enough about the condition of Shep's body after he was "killed". Death isn't as clear cut as it seems, I think. I mean, you can have your heart stop, and all bodily funtions stop, and be dead, but still be brought back. I believe this has something to do with after a certain point the damage can't be undone.
With the future medical tech in ME, some of it probably coming from medical knowledge of other races, and that Cerberus has a lot of money and people, I think what happened to Shepard is plausible in that setting.
But like I said, we don't know a lot, they could throw in a twist or they could not, but with the info we have it is reasonable.

"leaving earth" comes in at a close second.

ME2's "The End Run" is still my favourite, along with "The Normandy Reborn"

Your all wrong , the true ending is the camera zooms out from a monitor into the bioware offices.Cupcakes arrive and they eat all of them , later they come back and get to work on a new ending.Which is every character sitting around eating cupcakes!
Approved

What happens if the ending takes you back to where Shepard is regaining contentions from the Prothean Beacon from Eden Prime. Won't that be funny if you have to to all the story lines again, but knows what will happen in the end,
I created a poll of possible 'new' endings, including this one,...needless to say everyone agreed that would suck

So the Illusive Man was just hangin out on the citadel?
Yeah it doesn't make sense though. How did he get there and not die when everyone else is apparently dead? How did no one see him come up? He just appears out of nowhere. If he was able to come up that easily, along with shep and anderson, then there should've been dozens of people on the citadel that were transported. Because harbinger just flew off. It makes zero sense.

Well, I have the feeling that even if we are correct with IT (which seems very likely to me), they may still have a surprise or two for us.
In any case, I keep wondering at which point we will drop out of the IT attempt. And given that Shepard doesn't seem to lively, if your EMS is too low, it will be interesting to see, what happens in that case.
Regarding the song:
For me, there's nothing that beats "Spectre Introduction". Humanity stepping up as a respected nation in the galaxy - feels unforgettable.

If you ignore all the Indoc. Theory evidence and take what you are seeing at face value, then one could make the argument that because he was already indoctrinated he was 'allowed' up to the citadel to stop shepard and he may have been there all along waiting for you. ...
...IF you ignore the indoctrination theory evidence that is

If you go the non indoctrination threory route, there is absolutly no reason for him to be there or for the reapers to allow him to come along for the ride.

Or if you're going to troll me we can just call it the space magic theory.
