I could see Shepard helping Aria retake Omega AFTER the war, but considering the utter devastation the galaxy endures, that's just not possible.
Unless retaking Omega changes the ending (regardless of what the EC offers), I don't see the point. Shepard would tell Aria to take a hike.

Retaking omega would mean having access to the omega 4 relay and even if the base was blown up cerberus built some research bases in the galactic core to study either the cb or the remains of the cb. Getting control of the omega 4 relay would be a big deal during the war.[/quote]
Why? Did they move it in the comics or something?[/quote]
cerberus constructed some research bases on the other side of the omega 4 relay after shepard put down the collectors. It's in the books and comics.

I get that, but you don't need the Omega 4 relay to access the Omega station in the second game.[/quote]
Having control of omega would pretty much give you access to the omega 4 relay though since controlling omega would mean controlling the system.

Why would the Reapers even bother with trying to control that system if every other major galactic hub is under their control, and that they can just shut down the relays at anytime, so controlling Omega/Omega 4 relay would be pointless.
And supplie are limited so eventually they would have to go elsewhere. Also what's the point of using the Omega 4 relay if you aren't a reaper seeing as how right as you use it, your ship collides with debris or explodes on the way there. There is nothing of value on the other side anymore.

Who said anything about the reapers? it is under cerberus control at the beginning of ME 3. With that said I am sure the reapers would love to have that resource back in order to build more reapers though I think that is what they were going to do with the citadel when they moved it to earth. But right now cerberus is using it as a resource we see how their troops are modified with reaper crap. Taking away that resource would weaken cerberus and we are at war with cerberus as well as the reapers.[/quote]
I mentioned the Reapers because it's a system not under their control yet, so eventually they will head there, so no matter who controls Omega, will lose it to the Reapers, if supplies haven't run out before then and it will be completely unocuppied.
Cerberus's main HQ station gets attacked and destroyed, and their leader bails on them and heads to the Citadel where he is killed, so no matter what Cerberus manages to accomplish over in the Omega 4 relay, will be in vain. We are at war with Cerberus, but Cerberus is also at war with the Reapers.

Um you are kind of metagaming at this point.[/quote]
So...the Reapers will skip the Omega system because they know it's a future DLC content, even though there is a major number of inhabitants there...
How is that meta-gaming? The Reapers all of a sudden only cull the systems that use mass relays that they 'choose' to? Even though this system uses the Mass Relays, and uses THEIR technology.

No but you mention that cerberus hq gets destroyed and that is obviously after the fact. I am thinking this would take place mid game. By weakening cerberus or taking over a few of their bases we could get our hands on some tech (or destroy it if it is dangerous) we weaken cerberus (pick up some ems) and get a return trip to the core. Yeah cerberus might be at war with the reapers but the reapers are using cerberus. Indoctrinated lackies are most useful when they don't know they are being used. A group like cerberus is one of the things that screwed over the protheans during their war with the reapers.
