BIG ANNOUNCEMENT COMING LATER THIS WEEKEND
Also, because I already did this for friends and I think maybe I should spare anyone within range of my words the trouble of finding out for themselves:
Be wary of Mass Effect 3.
Youtube the endings BEFORE you purchase the game. They'll be easy as hell to find on youtube by now, and I am just one of thousands of fans that is disappointed/enraged/saddened by how the franchise ended. I can honestly say if I had known that's the way they would've ended it I would not have bought the game.
Those last five-ten minutes? They're so low in quality and full of WTF creative decisions that it manages to sour the entire franchise. They're contradictory at best and retroactively invalidating at worse And the more you think about it, the more holes you find and the worse it gets. It's not even So Bad It's Good. It's like...It's M. Night Shyamalan bad.
Don't get me wrong, it's a good game, maybe even great. I was all set for saying it was Game of the Year. But yeah, take my advice, investigate the endings, and decide NOW rather than buying a brand new copy. Or rent it. Or buy it used. Just don't get a new copy and support this kind of crap with your wallet.

Down with the star child.
Which makes this a bit of a self-serving post, I guess.
I'll admit that I can be a bit too creatively paranoid, and that I hate EA with a flaming passion, but this has got to be them holding out on us. The rest of the game is pretty goddamned awesome, with the exception of the Crucible being not only a God Machine, but one who's arguments and choices make no sense. With that much cool stuff in it, and the fact that there's not even a few text entries to read, I am dead certain that they're going to be coming out with some DLC which we, the loyal customers who up to and including preordered the Special Edition(though also anyone who legitimately bought it), will have to pay for just to finish the goddamned game properly. Hell, they've already done it with Spore and half-done it with everything else they've come out with recently, and personally, I just want to find the particular bastard in EA management responsible for this marketing strategy and inflict some physical pain on his greedy ass.
Anyway, the game itself is still great, but with as much as the goddamned storyline can cut down on the killing-things time in the first place, prior knowledge of the ending would've been awesome. That way I could do a few minimal-story maximum-fun runs first. Which, I discovered yesterday, is STILL a bitch to do. The opening sequence is great, but by the time of my second run, I've ALREADY seen it twice, and I just want to get through it and start playing with my fun new abilities.
Basically what really angers me is this, We were told that we would "Take Back Earth" and all we did was play universal tinker toys with a holographic god child.
Whatever, I'm going to keep playing for all the wonderful writing beforehand and just stop at the point where Shepard's lying on the ground bleeding out so I can pretend the rest of the game is in his/her dying mind.
Everything so far I've played however looks amazing.........oh man why did they skimp the endings x.x
And I'm a bit addicted to the multiplayer.Bioware: the ultimate dreamchrusher. The ending may be horrible, but I can at least say mass effect died a trilogy. Knights of the old republic didn't even get that.......and knights 2 left far more questions for fans than it did answer them.
