 count me in for it :) ...

didnt enjoy endings seeing 'em on youtube so was all WTF!! ...still disappointed about the fact that the game was freaking short lived...but now i say this is the best ending if u think about it...shepard had to have to die in the end no other possibility i would say now...i would now go a bit further with saying why did they include those endings where shepard survives after all that mess he gets into... also that indoctrination theory they mentioned is only to calm the whining lot of mass that are whining over the fact that the series ended with shepard dying (considering i was one of them... "stupid me")

its actually something like from the beginning of me3 the catalyst (boy) was keeping an eye on him and studding the very want of all the species, through shepard, to stay alive and not get wiped out. and not that shepard was indoctrinated or so...

in a way its almost similar to ' The Day the Earth Stood Still' ...Keanu Reeves there is the Catalyst (boy) here... :)

YEY to BIOWARE :D though i still feel Dragon Age Origins to be the best by bioware :innocent::whistle:

I didn't want an ending full of speculation or symbolism. I wanted a satisfying, original ending to Mass Effect. I didn't get that.

Nope. Haven't touched it. 

  The ending was just the icing on the crap-cake, with that day-one DLC as Casey Hudson called the "sugar on top." The entire narrative seemed to just fall apart more and more as the game went on, lore seemed to just cease to exist, choices did NOT matter (LOL at the dark purple Rachni queen), and everything from how the story was told, to the ways characters interacted and were portrayed as was dumbed down. All bimbos, boobies and hurr durr macho gun action. Gameplay was dumbed down, not "streamlined." I get it, you can roll, and use an energy sword omniblade, but the game itself became what felt like a Gears of War clone with influences from COD and Battlefield 3. Not bad games, just bad elements to be trying to copy and cram into Mass Effect for the "wider audience."

  If you weren't romancing one of the "canonized" LIs such as Liara, Ashley, or Kaidan, well, sorry. You're screwed  in that department too. Oh, and what was that five-minute photoshop of that iStockphoto...that was supposed to be the face of the most popular character of ME2? Talk about crapping on a fanbase. I would love to see how the "Shepard deserves better fans" bigots are going to try to justify that one.

  Also, what happened to the sleek, clean, sci-fi look and feel to Mass Effect? It seemed like technology in the game universe took a major downgrade as well. We went from the cool blue, purple, red and green muzzleflashes and bullet trails to boring, modernized machine gun sounds and effects. Even the grenades got a downgrade, going from the cool floating disc grenades to these...hunks of crap that quite frankly don't do a thing (I'm not talking about sticky grenades, but that was also very unoriginal of BioWare). Aesthetically, everything seemed to be clunkier, boxier, and even the hardsuits went from that clean, sleek and coherent look to big, bulky, and Gears-esque, especially when you look at Vega's armor. 

 Those were just a few of the issues I had with Mass Effect 3. Quite frankly, the only ME game I can bring myself to play is the first one. 


That's a good point........ How did the Rachni queen get so BIG!

AAAAHHHHH! Of all the things. That's going to bug me for a few days now. Maybe she ate alot and became a BBR........

DA:O rocks I soooooo agree. ME1-3 are awesome too, even with........... ok if I completely ignore the last 10 mins.

I watched a youtube vid that synched the endings with each other and played them scence for scene. There are slight, very slight, incredibly slight variations beyond the colour scheme but they play out roughly 95% the same, give or take.

I think the BW ME team, who were reported to be working under a labour of love, found it to be a needy and possesive beast and cut it off......... (oh grud, mental image get out of my head).

Nah, other things to do. I still think sometimes wtf was that about, did the other games happen? did they get the enough of the CoD players to make it worth turning the game into what we got.

Last time I played ME3 was March 19 when I saw that artistic beautiful ending.

Did not play until yesterday for the TurnME3on campaign. Replayed Tuchanka. Probably not playing again till EC.

Starting from 1 again which I thought I wouldn't do a few weeks back, just trying to ignore thoughts of the ending. Haven't replayed 3 yet, might leave it til the extended cut comes out.

I'm not really angry or anything like that. I just don't want to play it again because the ending makes replaying the game unsatisfying to me.

I never had this phase.I am on my 6th play-through but after this I am putting the game back in the case until EC gives me the highly Anticipated cinematic and Epilogues the game needs to truly feel complete.

I tried replaying ME3. Tried replaying old Bioware games. I can't. I've just... moved on. There are so many fantastic stories being told in this industry. I hope that they salvage ME3 some day and it gets the ending that it deserves (hell, an entire reboot of the third game would not be bad). But I've moved on to fertile pastures.

Mass Effect will always have a place in my heart. I already put Shepard up there with Indiana Jones as childhood heroes. I'll just think of Mass Effect 3 as an Indiana Jones 4. It never really happened.

Nope, still not playing anything related to ME. I will give it a look when the EC comes out and see if its worthwhile.
