Bug interacting with environment (Retina Targetting awry)

Edit: I'm uploading a short FRAPS session now to
Youtube - says it'll be a bit, but should be viewable in about an hour
(approx 01:30 EST) at: - it shows my inbaility to target the bit in the war room, even though I'm told I should be going there to talk to Hackett.  This is a single example of many situations where I have encountered this problem.

I have a bizarre problem that is incrediably frustrating and ultimately has caused me to not really want to continue playing the game.  I've tried reinstalling to no avail.  I have issues targetting objects I am supposed to interact with.  Strange things allow me to actually see an interactive object, but sometimes I can't interact with things at all.

For example, when trying to get through the last checkpoint with Moridin on Tuchanka, you kill some folks and then have to hit a button on a console to continue to the 'boss fight'.  If I stand next to the console nothing shows up for me to interact with, however if I use space bar to duck, it will briefly show the targetting retina, but I'm unable to click it.  After going through this for 3 waves and then 15-20 minutes I got lucky and when I was ducking somehow hit the retina, advacning me in the story.

Other times, it seems if I just wait long enough I'll be able to target things.

The part where it gets beyond bloody frustrating is on the Normady, I've never been able to target the vid comm bit to call back to Admiral Hackett.  I figured I was just retarded and was in the wrong place, so when my brother came to town this weekend I asked him and he said "That's weird **** man, I dunno, it's the right place."

While it'd be more difficult to illustrate the problem I had on Tuchanka, I could in theory play again until it happens once more and then fraps it to demonstrate, but basically it wont' show retinas to interact with until I do something like a heavy melee or duck against an obstacle.  If it'd be helpful, and possibly to prove I'm not totally retarded (Or, consequently, to prove that I am) I could easily FRAPS a bit of running about on the Normandy to show my inability to interact with the vid com.

Would love any help/advice, getting stupidly annoyed that I'm probably missing some mighty important stuff, since everytime I return the ship, I'm told that Admiral Hackett is waiting to have a word with me on the vid com.

Again, this is not the only place this happens - it is a frequent and irrating as hell issue.  It normally happens in combat zones (It happened in Tuchanka -bad- at a door you have to stand in front of to get access into the facility and the last checkpoint, again) but it's normally something I'm able to get past.  Here it's not and it's driving me batty, so I'd appreciate any help.

Edit #1: Added youtube link to the top showing the issue on the ship: 
Edit #2: Added youtube link of it happening during combat, and the resulting heavy attack that fixes it.  It's still uploading - but it says it should be done by 01:15 EST.  http://youtu.be/MFPzuGQHXSE

I have the same problem, but its with everything. First it was with the door that the husk was trying to get through on the first level. Somehow I managed to get that working. Then it happened again when trying to use the radio to contact the Normandy. Which somehow worked after a reinstal/install for the 7th time. Now im stuck at the control panel at the Mars Archive and nothing ive done works.  Good luck trying to get any help around here. Ive been trying to get a response for 4 days.

Better off just asking for a refund or some such?  I'd like to play the game, but it feels almost unplayable at this point to me (Which makes me feel really bad for you, since yours is -actually- unplayable).

Their customer support folks pointed me here, and said that developers would need to address it... Is there anywhere else worth posting, or just a waste of time?

I'm not sure. I've searched the net but apparently you and I are the only ones having this issue because I can't find anyone else with this bug. It would be nice to play this game now and not 6 month down the road when it gets fixed in a patch. I would like to think my $80 went towards something worth while.

Still no luck finding a solution? I decided to load me3 on another rig and somehow managed to get into the mars facility. Everything workef up until I needed to use the tram. Now im stuck again.

Ive come to the conclusion that this game is bugged.

Same problem here, made it through the mars section and got stuck trying to enter the shuttle to finish the next level.
This is a bug and a patch is probably needed, usually if I turn and catch the right angle I can get it to work by tapping space over and over when I'm positioned so that the circle on the item that I'm trying to react with flashes.

So you guys are not alone.

So 3 people with the same problem. Definitely not a coincidence.

Hey Vyrali, you by chance add the LensFlares=False line to the Mass Effect 3 config file? I had done the same and not knowing that was the cause of my problems. I started deleting custom lines I added one by one to see if one of those were the problem. Once I deleted the LensFlares=False line, the retnia targeting thingy showed up again. So just to double check it, I re-added the line and started the game again. The targeting thingy was gone. Not really sure why disabling lens flare would mess that up. Hopefully that's your issue as well. Let me know if you have any luck.

I had the same problem when I tried opening the door with the husk on the first level and now I get with some doors and objects on the Normandy. Usually, they work again if I hit escape and then resume the game but when I go to the captain's cabin, that doesn't work. I can't interact with any of the stuff or even exit the room! :( I tried to contact EA about it but they were absolutely useless and suggested I come here to ask someone to help me...
