Well, I'll admit I was kinda annoyed that they basically put the band of Mass Effect 1 back together for this (and added EDI and the big Hispanic bear, which I can't help but like, God help me). They said they shrunk down the team size to concentrate more on the single members, but then they put the three/four team members in there you had the longest time to explore, as they've been with you all the time (except Ashley/Kaidan for two, and Liara only when you bought the Shadowbroker DLC). Liara even had a comic mini, for heaven's sake.

Personally, I'd have prefered Grunt, Jack, and Samara to make it into the team again.

Yes, but you have to play Femshep to get with her, though you do get Girl on Girl showering in underwear action, if you're into that sort of thing.

I would be more than happy to explain it but then the thread would get negative and I don't feel I have the right to do so unless I play the game. I have no problem not buying the game based on what I've researched and saying such but if you look at my post never have I reviewed part 3 because again I haven't earned the right.

It's cool Lester, I can understand having concerns and not wanting to buy the game because of them. I didn't buy DA 2 cause I played the demo and felt unimpressed and even more so after reading some of the reviews. I don't have any plans to buy Diablo III even if I did have a computer that could run it, cause 1) It just feels like same old same old and 2) all the "Anti-piracy" shit that Blizzard has been pulling, and they continue to pull from what I've heard.

Being asked to fork out $50 to $60 or more is an expensive commitment, especially these days, and its only natural you'd feel hesitant about spending that kind of money. Hell if it wasn't for some of the trade in deals I got from Gamestop that considerably knocked down the price, I probably wouldn't have bought most of the games I did in the last 8 months, and might have been more critical with the games I did buy. Except Batman Arkham City, I picked it up for 30 with trade ins and felt it was every bit worth the $60.

The impression I'm getting from Mike Gamble's twitter is that the amount of war assets required for the various endings has been lowered. That should make some people happy.

Ok so since spoilers and what not will be flying soon let me make a list over some problems and how i think thy will address them.

Your crew flying away from the battle: Joker ordered to pick up someone..
The total annihilation of all life on earth due to massive bombardment from the fleet: what bombardment?
The total annihilation of all life in the galaxy due to the explosion of the Relays: just a longer scene showing the explosion and that its small.
and so on and what not

It would make me happy, that's for sure. It seems impossible to get all possible endings unless you go for multiplaying, which kind of sucks.

The DLC is available and the endings are on YouTube.

Yeah, just finished the extended cut ending and have to say...I personally was happy with what they added. They shed light on some details that were glossed over in the first ending and extended the actual ending itself. I will say, however that I don't think other players are going to be anywhere near as satisfied as I was. I hope Bioware is prepared for more flak, unfortunately.
