No...both the saves I had were for FemSheps, I don't have a MaleShep save I can pull, so I was planning on running one through ME2 to have one available for ME3...but after the unbelievably gawd-awful "pick which way you'll screw everyone, red blue, or green" ending, what's the point?
For Those With Multiple Shepards: Will you play through again?

I can't bring myself to, as I've said previously, so, no.

I guess it's a testament to how great ME was. But after this **** ending, I just can't bring myself to import my male Shep and jump back into to mix. Just don't want to.
I've never really been that invested in a video game before, but this series was special to me. And seeing it all thrown away with one of the most insulting, incoherent and unfinished endings imaginable actually ... hurts. As weird as it is to say that, that's kind of the truth.
So, no. I won't be going back to ME3 unless there's some kind of remedy to that ending. And that's a shame because I was already planning to be four or five hours deep into my second playthrough by now.

I loved everything up until the ending, which means I can still get at least 24 hours or so of enjoyment out of it. But even with that said, it'll probably be a while before I play again. Maybe this summer.

I was wondering what my purely Renegade Shepard's choices would affect at the end of the game as I played through with my Paragon Shepard, but which his choices in ME1 and 2 affect ME3, the choiced you do in ME3 doesn't mean a thing nor do you get to know what happens afterwards.
Atleast Dragon Age let you read what happened to Orzimmar and so on based on your choices afterwards, even that would be better then pretty much a identical cutscene only with the energy spike being in different colors.
Do the Quarian and Geth peace last?
How are the Krogans doing after being cured?
Will the citadel be rebuildt through the combined work of the council races?
Did Tali build her house on her homeworld?
Did Liara return to being the Shadow broker?
Did Jacobs kid be named "Shepard"
and so on.

Nope. I beat ME2 several times with many classes and had lots of different shepards ready to import into ME3, but what is the point? I can't bring myself to play it again. I will get blue, green, or red the galaxy is screwed ending. You know I was looking forward to seeing "Blonde Shepard" (youtube it) playtrough of ME3, but I can safely say that Blonde Shepard will be just fine- she will get the game ending everybody else got because in a series built on everything you do matters... nothing you did mattered.

At first I said no. The Ending spoiled it for me. Then I decided to start again and got to Mars. Took one step off the shuttle and said its not worth it and exited the game.

Gonna get every one of them ready for the DLC endings, if they don't release DLC endings? Never buying Bioware games again.

If and when the shock runs it's course, I might decided to replaying with my other two commander Shepards as well as finish my 4th run of ME1... but if I do replay ME3, I'm just going to cut myself off before the end.
And I agree with The Almighty Ali. With Dragon Age: Origins at least you got an epilogue that talks about the choices you've made, the consequences, what happens to your character and their LI, what happens to other characters, and so on. I was hoping for something like that in ME3 where we got to see whether our decisions meant anything and how they impacted the species that it affects.

If/when BioWare cops to this mistake and tells us real endings are coming, I'll definitely pick the game back up. If not ... well, thanks Mass Effect, it was fun for two and 3/4 games.

I would only partially finish a game to see the realization of a Liara romance. Other than seeing romance outcomes, what's the point?
The ending just makes you feel empty anyway. Not a fan of R.U.R. styled endings (I hated reading that in highschool) . The ending felt like the game you absolutely fell in love with just said, "I think we should see other people." And left you with the heartbreak. Don't really feel like taking 10 different paths to be dumped each time.

Throughout the whole game I was thinking about how different it would be
if I had made different choices, saved different people, what would
have happened if that character wasn't there. I was looking forward to a
(hopefully) very different story the second time around. Then the
ending-button machine showed up and I really can't bring myself to play
through it again, even to see how Kaidan acts vs Ashley.
It kills
me that two shepards that act so completely different over the course
of the previous two games will be doomed to the exact same ending(s). No
glorious victory with all the races united together or a (potentially)
grimdark human-dominated galaxy, no choice between saving the normandy
and my friends or saving earth itself, just various colors of the
destruction of the very civilization I was trying to save.
I have
to say, I never would have expected such a small amount (time wise) of
bad in the third game would be able to sour me on the entire trilogy so
utterly. I can't even bring myself to play 1 and 2 again, knowing how it ends.

I just downloaded the Arrival and was going to download Shadow broker to play through 1, 2 and then 3 again. But now after that ending, I can't see myself playing Mass Effect again.

Not only will I play through again, I'm about to begin to play through all three games as an Adept, something I've never done before.
I guess for me it's a journey versus destination thing. And the fact is that from my perspective I was never really Shepard, either. I was somebody watching his story unfold. Like it was a novel or a movie. I just happened to have a little bit of a say in how certain parts of that story unfolded. But the main points were always going to be out of my control. If that makes any sense.
That said, however, I liked the endings much more than I had problems with them. The synthesis ending was actually the direction I was hoping the game would go.

I'll look at the good bits for other choices on YouTube. Can't bear to take another one of my precious 7 sheps through again. Heck, I can't even bear to look at the games or the console for that matter!
