Firstly, kudos to Bioware for making the fight in London, but naughty Bioware for typical portrayal of London.

Big Ben can be a pass, but you just happen to land right in central London. With Big Ben right in view...

Also and my main point... the insane, and I mean insane number of Red Phone boxes.
Seriously, there isn't many left anymore, and 180 years in the future you had them of every street corner.

Hell on some parts they were everywhere, two on one corner then a few more just down the road one for cover ect. I was surprised there wasn't a futuristic red bus.
Yeah I get we're in London, you don't need to show us a bloody red phone box around every turn to make us remember that.

But, but think about it, some guy in London thought that by adding more of them red phone boxes in the city would one day allow Commander Shepard to take more cover during the invasion that would mean the end of humanity and it'd all play out in London, so obviously more of them would help the cause.

As a Londoner I did find the number of red phone boxes pretty hilarious, I must admit :)

Well, Bioware got the dark depressing feel about living in London spot on.

I'm surprised London still has white people.

I have never even been to England, let alone London, and even I found this to be ridiculous. I actually only even noticed one of them and thought "wtf...".

And apparently people that are born there have thick American accents.

If it really was London it would have been raining the entire time and even the Reapers would start feeling depressed.

That got to you too huh? lol I know my username states I'm "In Japan" but I left there 4 years ago, and even in that time things have changed. Why the heck cant things be drastically different 180 years down the line for crying out loud?

The Doctor would have fixed all of this **** in a jiffy.

I would give my right arm to see the Doctor beating the Catalyst down. Seriously, the Catalyst and it's logic would be a physical representation of absolutely everything the Doctor hates. EVER. Except for pears. Not sure how those would fit in.

To be fair, apart from Big Ben and the red phone boxes, I think they did a pretty good job. I remember taking cover in some corner coffee shop and thinking that it was fairly realistic. Also, I liked the 'old' buildings/ruins. It could have been worse (i.e. futuristic red buses).

Was it just me or all the characters who were born in London were black/mixed?
