Thanks, Mike! That's a good one.

I'm marking all new articles (as of this week) with an asterisk (*), so keep an eye out.

As for the fleet banners...I didn't make them, I just collected them and posted them for everyone. I give credit to Sl4sh3r for them, but I don't know if he's making any more. I'm sure if you poke around you'll be able to find someone willing to make new ones. I'm horrible with computers most of the time, so I ususally don't mess with that stuff. XD

Just found this. It's pretty good break down of how the ending breaks with the rest of the series.

heh been posted a few times, but its still amazing.

Been a bit busy lately so haven't kept up on the newest links in the thread. A friend sent me the link which I thought was great so just went ahead and posted it.

Also BUMP.

If I had an original I could do the banners; but as the originals aren't my work, I've sent a message to Sl4sh3r, but yet to hear back. Will wait and see. Meanwhile - keep up the great work!

Totally off-topic but..

I think cupcake drive really hit the message home. Funniest part is that the folks at Bioware chose an Option D, instead of the A,B and C.

Here's hoping they do that to the ending.

Too bad that charities cannot turn down gifts like Bioware, even if they don't like the reason.

I have another one - not sure if it was mentioned already and whether it should be in the Plot Hole or wayward Normandy list.
The Codex clearly states that when the mass effect field of a ship collapses while it is in FTL the result is catastrophic and everyone would most surely end up dead from radiation exposure if not from the big **** explosion following them. (for those wondering - secondary codex entries > Ships and Vehicles > FTL Drive)

Just making sure that the Forbes article link gets in here:

This, by far, has to be one of the better threads on this topic. Kudos for maintaining it when things move so fast. It's a great thread to understand the issues we customers have with the company Bioware. Thanks for keeping this thread updated.

[SwiftRevenant]

Amazing! Thank you for putting all that together. I used to think Social media was all about keeping tabs with friends/family/acquintances, but it has taken it to another level I never thought possible. Great job guys! Hold the line!

[locsphere]

Oh this is awesome! Its my one stop shop for everything I hated about the endings!

[Ibn_Shisha]

Thank you.

[spartan5127]

I would like to give my thanks.

[Ender99]

Good job. Thanks.

The ongoing problem of the face transfers (many ME1 Shepard's unable to import at all, and most Shepards period not really looking like themselves without serious tweaking, if then), and the problem's existence since before release with still no resolution 24 days later deserves a spot in the OP as well.

I think BioWare announced a fix for the face import issue coming soon. No way they were gonna get out of that one. XD Plus, this thread is solely about the endings, not a general "Look at how much BioWare fails" thread. Lol. If it's endings-relevant, I'll put it in the OP, otherwise it can just be a topic for discussion.

@Everyone - Hey! I'm finally done with this school week! Yay! This means I can finish organizing my notes and get some of the OP re-written and re-done. I'm adding a new section for the articles, a "news" section for the most recent articles, and an "archive" section for the rest of them. Sound good to everyone? I'll organize the article archive into categories, too (positive, neutral, and negative). 

Also, thanks for all the support and praise for this thread, as well as for all the tips. GREATLY appreciated, thank you!

Escapist have a few more articles written on the ending.
Another one from Shamus Young who gives an alternate look at why reviews don't examine the endings too closely.

 http://www.escapistm...y-Doesnt-Matter 

Another article discusses what really constitutes ownership in a video game.

 http://www.escapistm...s-Mass-Effect-3 

Plus, the bonus escapist podcast that takes a look at the ending of mass effect (the previous ones looked at the earlier parts of the game).

http://www.escapistm...Spoilers-Part-3 

Yeah, I read the escapist a lot. <_<

[Deaddude221]

For the line ... I will shamelessly BUMP!

Yeah.  That was 10 days ago.  Which was 14 days after release.  I do believe it is tangentially ending-related in that there are quite a few hardcore fans still holding out for a fix before playing.  Imagine the bumps threads like this will get when they do finish.  That's assuming that EAware doesn't just wait and bundle it with an ending DLC.  I would be one of that crowd if I hadn't fallen for the prerelease lies and pre-ordered CEs for both PC and PS3.  Thus, while my PC copy still gathers dust, my 2nd PS3 playthrough is under way.  I believe I'll take a suggestion from the relevant thread and exit the game after letting Mr. Shields kill me, to avoid that 5-10 minutes of absolute horrified disbelief.

May want to add this to the OP, it just showed up today and seems to be compiling all the negative/positive stuff for the game. Very strange.

What the..

I'm having a hard time getting a feel for what this is actually about and what purpose it holds. Maybe it's just picking up on things tagged with Mass Effect 3? Some things that pop up barely have anything to do with Mass Effect. Only a few things I saw mentioned the ending in particular, good or bad.

Strange indeed.

[Arkafazin]

Oh good thing I found this. With the PR thread that died last week sometime, I had a hard time finding a good place for finding out all the new info in one place. Thanks for the huge list!

Holding the line

Nevermind, I got an email from EA and this is just an ad for the game. Nothing else.

We were trolled again.
