Throughout the game, by and large, players' Shepards have been allowed to make their own decisions. Whether the lives of civilians were worth saving, whether to kill the batarians, blah blah blah. We get to set the moral path for Commander Shepard.
But suddenly this changes at the end of the game. We are shepherded into killing a baby. This is outrageous and morally repugnant in the extreme. It is simply disgusting that we be forced to destroy an infant to progress the game. And to those who suggest is it necessary because it is a Reaper baby, this is a sickeningly intolerant view. Justifying the death of any child or childlike being based on its origin is simply racist.
I am disappointed at BioWare's decision to push their neo-fascist views on us through Mass Effect 2 and hope that the next instalment of the game does not have us committing even more disturbing acts of infanticide. I for one did not play Mass Effect to role play a baby-murdering psychopath.
The ending of this game is truly disturbing

Considering said baby was created by effectively murdering 10s of 1000s of people in a rather nasty way, I felt it rather okay to end it.

haha that baby is being created by dissolving humans, and feeding them to the "baby" thru tubes. Oh yeah, technically is not a baby, its an embryo.

Sometimes, abortion is not only reasonable, but only sane option.

Well technically, the baby is sentient. It didn't even learn how to speak before we killed it. Poor thing trying not to fall while we shoot it in the eyes. And all it wanted was a mom to wake its eyes upon. Tsk tsk tsk

The baby reaper has a soft, gooey center of sweet, sweet human mush. DELICA-LICIOUS!

Tonight on Fox News, the new video game Mass Effect 2 teaches children that they should kill babies. Here's some footage of Hillary Clinton being outraged at this horrific "abortion simulation".

Yes, because even though they liquified tens of thousands of humans the reapers made sure that abduted pregnant women and children were spared the atrocities

No I think the Op was trying to be funny over the fact the media over blows everything with a fake Christen front ((Case drama make great TV)). Personally To me it like takin a hammer to a half way done toaster.

Not killing baby = killing millions of humans.
It is racist to insist that a reaper is worth more than a human simply because it's a reaper.
Race neutral logic holds that terminating the reaper larvae is the best possible course. Allowing it to live would only be the next step in bioware encouraging flagrant anti human racism amongst the youth that play these games.

When I first killed the baby reaper I was using the cain. It was a fun fight, I thought. Half the time it looked like the reaper was playing peekaboo. Thus when I knew I had it down to a quarter health I launched one final cain slug at it and said:
"Peekaboo!"
"Peekaboo!"
