    Just pulled an all nighter to finish the game and now ehading off to work.

     
    Fuck that ending they gave us. I really don't mind everything that actually happened, but god damn, you have no idea what the fuck happened to anyone or anything afterwards. It was just a BOOM, bbtw you're done with the game. Even the post credits scene could have tooken place 1000s of eyars later for all we know. Such bullshit.

      So far, on full renegade, femShep, I've shot Mordin in the back, executed Legion and shot Wrex in the face
      The king was shaken. He went up to the room over the gateway and wept.
      As he went, he said: "O my son Absalom! My son, my son Absalom!
      If only I had died instead of you
      O Absalom, my son, my son!"

        I am just about to finish the game (even though I have pretty much no desire to given the universal displeasure of the ending). Overall the plot felt really messy and patched together throughout, and just overall really weak for such a strongly story-driven game.

        Gameplay was as great as ME2, but overall the character development was nowhere near as compelling to me as the first two.
         
        The constant 100% coincidence "where are they now" reunions didn't do it for me, especially since they were essentially the only side missions in the game.


        Overall I am more than a little surprised the reviews scores were as universally high as they were.

          All I did was think about this game while at work.

            This has led me to believe that the ending really works on a deeper level. I was shellshocked for 2 days.

              For you PC/360 guys:

              Operation Goliath
              Citadel Allied Command is mounting a galaxy-wide operation to cripple the Reapers’ shock troops: the turian-krogan hybrids known as “brutes.” To flush out Reaper ground forces, N7 teams are deploying to engage the enemy in key theaters. Heavy reinforcements are expected anywhere fighting begins.

              Community Goal: Inflict heavy casualties on Reaper “brutes” on March 16th, 17th, and 18th.

              Community Unlock: If this goal is met, all N7 squads will be awarded a Victory Pack that can be unlocked the following week.

              Squad Goal: Successful extraction from a Reaper-held zone at a Silver threat level or higher.

              Squad Unlock: Your squad will be granted a Commendation Pack.

              Your allies are counting on you. Now is not the time to let them down.

              Any player who is part of a squad that beats the Reaper faction on Silver difficulty or better will unlock one Commendation Pack. This means that at least one member of the squad must be extracted at the end of the mission – this will earn all squad members the reward. Each player can earn a maximum of one pack, and each pack contains a random N7 Arsenal Weapon. Originally only available as single-player weapons via the N7 Collector’s Edition, these multiplayer variants will be exceptionally rare and are NOT obtainable through regular purchasable Reinforcement Packs. The Commendation Packs will contain one of the following guns at random: N7 Crusader Shotgun, N7 Eagle Pistol, N7 Hurricane SMG, and N7 Valiant Sniper Rifle.

              Destroy as many brutes as possible – if the multiplayer community kills a combined 1 MILLION brutes within the hours of the challenge, ALL players will receive a Victory Pack as a reward.

                There's got to be a solid reason as to why they're jipping PS3 players other than "tech constraints."

                If it's to get money out of us through DLC (which they do anyway with the higher tier packs like Spectre and that Equipment pack that costs a buck if you're too lazy to grind), I get that.

                To just not do it feels... wrong... in some way to me.

                  Used my day of work to put some hours in this and get it finished. Yeah, the ending was more than just a bit disappointing, all things considered. But the explanation was a kinda cool way to pull it all together.

                    Beat the game. No way is this the last time we play as Shep. But I was really satisfied with the ending.

                      I'm not dealing with the game finally being over very well.... I don't want it to be over. This was the perfect trilogy of games I've ever played. I've never been so emotionally attached to a game. I feel like such a fucking nerd.

                            I really thought EDI would die on the assault on Illusive Man's base. Is there a way to sacrifice her?

                              It wouldn't be possible anyway. Unless the Normandy blew up too. Remember that (sexy) body is just a vessel.


                              Such a nerdy post...

                                I think I was close to breaking 4000 with my first playthrough.

                                I did everything but the Eden Prime intel and the Fossil... the stuff on the Citadel where you pick sides in arguments ended up screwing me out of some points.

                                After I boost all the way up to 100% on G.A.W., I'll never worry again.
