I'm going to once we get the DLC. I've started playing through it twice, but decided I'd wait...
Have you played the game again since witnessing the ending for the first time?

I've played the game since having beaten it before, but i think i'll wait just a little longer until the ending gets fixed before i have another go at it.

Yes, I played it again. Got to end and kept shooting the Starchild in the head. Very satisfying.

Despite being seriously disappointed in the endings, I still imported my ME3 Shep for a New Game + playthrough. I'm just taking my time with it, savouring the moments I enjoy and playing some multiplayer.
Yeah - pretty much stalling until Bioware announce what they plan to do about the endings. Once I finish this playthrough, I intend to do an epic trilogy playthrough...

I've become more sympathetic to the ending (not fully supportive, just more understanding), but I still haven't gone back. Since there wasn't an Ashley-FemShep romance, I figured I'd load up a male playthrough, and then realized the only male playthrough I had would be missing Mordin. I find that unacceptable, so I found a decent ME1 playthrough, loaded it into ME2, and decided I'd go for my "Insanity" Achievement. I might get around to finishing that after finals. I'd hate to destroy my college career over a game with an ending I find unsatisfying :-).

I am doing my second playthrough now, but I didn't want to play any ME games for about a week and a half after I beat ME3. Normally I would have dived into my second playthrough right away, but the ending bothered me enough that I had to get on the net to see what everybody else was saying and if the rest of the fans were as bothered by it as I was.

Just started my 3rd playthrough right now, imported from an ME2 one which I finished about 3 hours ago.
Yes, the ending sucked, there are loads of plotholes, the cinematics are rushed, the whole thing is a massive letdown and I was sickened by it as well.
However, after playing ME2 again and experiencing all the epic moments I wanted to play ME3 again. Despite the ending, the ME games are the best ones I have ever played and ME3 reaches the gameplay peak in my opinion.
ME3 is an excellent game if you stop thinking about the ending. Granted, many decisions you made in the previous intallments are largely irrelevant (like the Rachni fate and the Collector base decision) but up until the ending the story is great and doesn't lack in emotional weight.
This time I'll just alt+f4 after Anderson dies.

Nope, it killed all desire in playing it again, as well as the entire franchise.

I have a second run through going. But most of the times I sit down to play it, I come here instead. Like so many here, I guess I'm mourning my favorite video game. And this is where I find others who get that.
And I don't want to start a new ME1 character unless they fix the face transfer bug. My ME3 Shepherds sound like my Shepherd, act like my Shepherd (until the end), but they don't look like my Shepherd.

Nope tried playing multiplayer but even that's got a bad taste after the ending.

I'm on my 4th time through but I've stopped after Horizon on each one past the 1st.

I can't stomach the ending again right now. I'm just waiting to see what DLC is released before I enter the mental debate over whether to play the game again or not. Once I do my second playthrough, I'll probably only go until just before the London mission and then stop until I know what, if anything, they'll do about the ending.

played MP ike a maniac after the horrible ending. Then I felt...empty.
I still occasionally play MP, but I will not play SP if they don't change the ending.

I managed to finish an Insanity play-through today, and got the breathing scene. The only way I did that was because I was obsessively thinking that it was Indoctrination the whole time.
So, basically, I'm living in possible total denial, depending on Bioware's next move.

I've beaten the game four times and got all of the achievements. I do not like the ending, but the gameplay is addicting. Aside from the ending and sometimes buggy dialogue, I absolutely adore Mass Effect 3.

Yep, I am going to start from ME1 here pretty soon and play all three.

I've not played any ME game since then. I had originally planned on inishing ME3,then going back and buying ME1 to do a complete play through from the start (I started on ME2).
Its not actually the ending that caused me to stop. The ending is simply the most obvious example of the problem with ME3 - one's prior actions are irrelevant. As has been pointed out by both others and myself, ME3 plays through in an almost identical manner irrespective of what has happened before. In most cases, all that happens is that there is a different NPC for the quests and a slightly different amount of total military strength at the end.
Since one's choices have no real impact on the game play of ME3, what is the point of replaying anything?
