Eve gives Shepard a crystal she dug her way out of the cave with during her Shamanic ritual and says, "In the darkest hour, there is always a way out." Hmmm.....
Oh, wow, I remember thinking that seemed important when it happened, but then I must have completely forgot about it.
Reminds me of this
Exactly! Maybe Shepard has it on her and clutrches it at some point...Who knows? But the point about things like that when you write a story is - Don't draw attention to something you are not going to ever mention again or you cheat the reader!
Eve doesn't give it to Shepard, she just shows it to her. It's a part of Eve's backstory, not Chekhov's Gun.

In a Mass Effect Game: The Shepard VI makes a joke about being put in a Mech, then quickly changes it's mind "Put me in a drone and strap a cain on it!" - My favourite line.
Although I'm certain most of you know both of those things =D

She gave it to me! Made me feel even worse about sabotaging the genophage cure.
I just noticed on my last ME2 playthrough that Admiral Koris vas Quib Quib sometimes yearns for a respectable ship name like the Deferens or the Ectomy.

Is this from the Normandy medbay conversation? I could be wrong, but I think your imagination made the leap from her showing you the crystal to handing it over to you (we never actually see the crystal so perhaps there's some ambiguity stemming from that and the animation). If I'm mistaken, is there a very clear scene/dialogue where she makes it a point to give it to you that you can show me? I've never seen anything like that in my playthroughs and my Shep totally bonded with Eve; so now you got me (albeit skeptically) curious.

Another one I forgot to add. If you completed Citadel: the fan, feros: data recovery, UNC: asari writings, and you obtain the Elkoss combine license (all side quests in me1), talking to Conrad verner in me3 BEFORE you fix the medigel dispensers (docks: holding area) will give you extra dialogue and a "Dark Energy Dissertation" war asset
You can fix all the medigel dispensers before talking to him just don't go back to the doctor. I like the idea that Conrad was finally useful if you had done all of that but there is no difference in war assets if you did all of that or just get his paper that he wrote in college. Curious about this, if you don't save Jenna in ME1 does Conrad really get shot jumping in front of Shep at the end of that quest?

Normandy is visible for Collector ship, but invisible for a Reaper.
They explain this with a convo from EDI about the Reaper IFF allowing them to spoof the reapers.

If you get drunk in Purgatory, you wake up on the couch next to Aria, who then gives you a cryptic look before the screen fades. I wonder what that scene means.

actually there is a difference if u do all those side missions... very little though, if u didnt do them, it only counts as 1 war asset, but if u did do all of them, it counts as a total of 5 war assets... yes u read right, all those side missions which took so much time in me1, add up to a total of 5 war assets. the same amount as choosing one conversation option and letting diana allers on ur ship...aryon69 wrote...

She's actually given it to me every time during that conversation. I don't remember the exact line now, although my current save is about to start this part, I'll pay more attention.BeefheartSpud wrote...

Regarding any other references, it's an Easter Egg, it doesn't really need any more references.

- Almost everyone you meet saying "The right choice is usually not the easy one." destroy ftw.
- The volus from Noveria in 1 who watched his colleague get killed by rachni sends you an e-mail in ME2 mentioning how this could all be "an ugly hallucination before a beautiful afterlife."
- Garrus' father has a radio conversation with Garrus, while he's trying to flee Palaven. His father says his sister has a broken leg, and the radio cuts out just after what I presume to be a reaper horn/growl sounds.
- The Krogan poet from Illium in ME2 dies in the Rachni caves.
- During the dream sequences the shadow figures gravitate towards the child for some reason. Eventually encircling him.

- Spacefight: What's described in the codex is quite different to what actually we see in the game.

In Mass Effect 3, when you complete the game, you get 3 endings. Blue, green, red. Sorry, it had to be said.

Also, there's the bit after Geth Dreadnought where Legion arrives in the War Room and freaks out all the quarian admirals. Thing is, he arrives just after you eject Admiral Gerrel from the Normandy. It occured to me that surely they would have bumped into each other while waiting to pass through the loading screen/door. Given Gerrel's attitude towards the geth, how was there not some sort of diplomatic incident?
