Yeah, I though Synthesis was the worst due to the fact that you are forcing change on all people.

what is worse, genocide, becoming space satan or gen rape? wow thats a tough one. i think (even though i would pick it) it's a tie between destroy and synthesis. destroy because it takes what we should get from the ending of the game and screws us out of it for drama sake and synth for the whole gen rape/space magic thing. control is just right out, i don't even think about it at all.

Synthesis. Makes the least sense, and you're changing everyone/everything against their will.

Low EMS Destroy.

There are no differences, the is only one end. And it entails screwing over EVERYBODY. Period. Different flavors, same outcome, one end.

Control
Not 5 minutes prior Shepard was forcefully telling someone how stupid and dangerous the idea of controlling the reapers was. Oh but all you needed to be told (by a character that makes no sense and has only just been met) was "Oh but YOU can totally do it, no one else could for sure" to completely reverse Shepard's entire opinion? Really? ****ing REALLY?
There's another point in the game (potentially) where you're given the option to do something that everyone agrees is a stupid, dangerous idea (including Shepard themselves) but can do anyway based on the premise of "Oh no Shepard, you are totally different! You'll be fine"; Romancing Morinth.
How well does that turn out again? Oh yeah that's right, you die, just like everyone else did.
Shepard might be an exceptional human being but he's not a ****ing God, he's still fallible and fragile just like everyone else.

Control and Synthesis are tied for me. Not a fan of Destroy, but at least that has SOME rhyme and reason.
On a personal level, Synthesis is clearly the worst of the three, in that it's stupid and nonsensical, it promotes the indirectly racist idea presented by the Catalyst that peace and emotional unity is not possible between individuals who are physically different, and it represents the most profound rape conceivable--the complete alteration of trillions of beings' bodies without their consent.
On the level of the game and its storytelling, however, Control is actually somewhat worse, in that it essentially undoes the (completely true) idea that it's madness to think that controlling beings like the Reapers is even remotely feasible. After tens of hours during which the game explains the fact that it's outright insane and stupid to try to control a being which can even in death indoctrinate you, has unmatched destructive power, and wants nothing more than to completely destroy your entire civilization and all its peoples, suddenly, for no rational reason, Shepard is expected to just accept that it IS okay and safe, because a highly suspect glowing being who made the Reapers in the first place happens to say it is? Not only is it ludicrous to actually think that Control is feasible, but if it really IS, then the ending has basically just invalidated Shepard's game-long conflict with The Illusive Man, AND has invalidated the entire conflict and dichotomy between Paragon and Renegade, since the question of whether one fights with integrity or does whatever is necessary to win is the core theme that Paragon and Renegade circle around. For ****'s sake, the gamer saw, literally not 10 minutes before, Shepard make a final stand against the man who represented Control, and tell him and us, with finality, that Control was not the way to go. What the heeeeeelllll!?
If you pick Synthesis, Shepard is an inhuman monster and the entire galaxy makes absolutely no goddamn sense. If you pick Control, Shepard was a complete fool to have common sense and integrity up until this point, and a major chunk of the ME series's story is inconsistent and broken. So the question of which is the worse of Synthesis and Control really just comes down to whether you think it's worse to have the surface level of the characters and universe you love violated and ruined, or to have the deeper level of the characters and universe you love violated and ruined.
All of that, on top of everything ELSE that's wrong with the ending regardless of which choice you make. Thanks a lot, Bioware.

Choice wise: Synthesis as it was a sudden addition to the the storyline with no foreshadowing, to the point that every coherent defence of it seems to be formed around a core of "In my head it means..." or "In the leaked script" and its counter-intuitive at best when you look at the material on Organic / Synthetic relations in the game.
Going further if everything is now one form of life we have disease issues as they "jump species" and we don't know if old medicine will work on the newly upgraded bacteria. Supply becomes more problematic as everything will now want the same resources which will no doubt lead to war between survivors left over from a highly militarised galaxy. Example the Quarians and Geth were working together and getting along: post synthesis they've now got a reasons to fight, they both need the planets resources. Well done Starchild!
That said Control is only just better due to the fact that it's been a long running theme in the series. Destroy is tolerable only because there is evidence to show that the Starchild was full of crap about the destruction of all Synthetics.
I think that multiple endings were a little redundant anyway, by making it multiple journeys to a single destination (destruction of the Reapers or the Galaxy's population) would've been easier from a storytelling perspective and would've at least allowed time for full closure sequences.
