thanks guys finally some half decent responses still few issues tho..... the control chip thing is nonsense as anderson was controlled aswell.. also regarding the reaper tech saran was riddled with it GREYSON from the 3rd novel had even more so and neither could directly control i thought the control was mental never a phsical thing ??? the idea of been controlled like a puppet if true is outright stupid .... the lift stilll bothers me as sheperd was on the brink of death one min then next talking to the catalist ... suppose anderson could have got there with the place shifting ...im not arguin to promote IT just looking for clarification myself
1. The other guy provided adequate explanation for that, but I don't recall TIM controlling Anderson. Just Anderson staggering around.
2. How does the lift bother you? It doesn't magically make you stronger, it just lifts you up. You're still pretty much "on the brink of death" when you're talking to the Catalyst.

"Yes. But he could never have taken control because we already controlled him."

how come tim never attempted to use the terminal and if he was in DIRECT CONTROL why argue with us why not kill us both and use the crucible
Because he wanted Shep to join him. When you assault his base there are video files that have him saying to Kai Leng that he still has hopes for Shepard.

No, no, it wasn't just any old Reaper tech. This was like Reaper tech - enhanced by the Illusive Man.
Basically, Henry Lawson (Miranda's dad) was studying Indoctrination at the Illsive Man's request. They got to the stage where they could manipulate husks into doing what they wanted. Essentially, they could "indoctrinate" others similar to the Reapers methods. Kai Leng then comes in, ****s some **** up, steals this research and goes to the base. Once you hit the base, research logs will show you the Illusive Man getting modified with this new tech (hence, his ****ed up husky appearance at the end). Essentially, Illsive Man gained a limited/varied version of the Indoctraination ability in which he could physically control others. Obviously it wasn't too effective as you can shoot him down in the end.

What Nyon said. Basically, he could control Shep and co yes, but he was Indoctrinated. He couldn't use the terminal becuase the Reapers didn't want him to use the terminal.
EDIT: if you use the renegade check dialogue options, Sheapard will actually tell the Illsuive Man that exact thing, he'll say "then kill us and end this" The illusive man says he will but then he starts arguing with himself and deson't do anything.

Yes, the ending sucks. That doesn't mean IT is right.Daddy555 wrote...
some of you have some pretty good posts what doesnt make sense to me is how none of this is explianed on the game ect also the lift bothers me as it comes from nowere is attached to nothin is is activated randomly as you fall what if shpe fell further to the left we might have avoided the catalist ending all together....
If IT turns out to be true I would feel cheated because it's a lousy trick to do, making you think you've done something but actually none of it mattered. That said, if the ending didn't really happen, that means another ending is necessary, and that would be a good thing, because we could simply alt+tab while the awful false ending happens and then play the real thing.

The problem with the ending was exposition, as far as I'm concerned. This stuff isn't too hard to figure out, but they just didn't show it, which was a bad move.
If I'm not mistaken, the lift is directly in front of the terminal, right?

I simply can't believe it would ever be true. if it IS true, however, I'll lament what BW did, and move on.

Haha I think you're taking it too literally there. If was there for dramatic effect more than anything else. You have to give them some liberties.
If you really want an explanation, the lift was right in front of the terminal - it seems like the most convienent place to put it. Guess Shep just got lucky that he landed there

The no attachments thing is a little unrealistic, but I think the writers were going for some way to completely separate off the Catalyst's area.

It isn't. I'd stake my life on it.
But, assuming it was and Bioware had planned it from the beginning?
I'd laugh and then feel pretty darn stupid. And apologize to everyone on the BSN.
