    Nothing really, just a bit of fun by the developers.

    Love. You can know all the math in the 'Verse, but take a boat in the air you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of worlds. Love keeps her in the air when she oughta fall down, tells ya she's hurtin' 'fore she keels. Makes her home.

    Yeah George Bush was such a Silly Goose that I'd punch him too.

    I knew Bioware had some Zen motivation. Having considered this koan I feel 1 step closer to full enlightenment.

    Doesn't matter to me which president it is, but if there is an option to punch out the president of earth (or whoever it is in the ME universe) I want to do it on principle. Especially if the game lets me punch the leaders of every alien race in the galaxy.

    Best game ever.

    Edit: I think I would be the one getting punched in that last example.

    I should really read this game's codex. I didn't bother because a lot of it appeared to be information from the last game, but there's probably some new shit in there I'd enjoy.

    Also, Codex Narrator is my favorite character.

    If it's anything like how bioware does alien porn it's a big cock tease and you still don't get to see their face.

    I'll forgive them if ME3 uses it for a touching ending.

    Otherwise...bad things will happen.

    huh.
    tbh i don't believe there's a timer on the run.

    1st run: longest time required, everyone survived.
    2nd run: fastest time, mordin croaked.
    3rd run(insanity): bit slower than run #2, everyone survived.

    Man why everybody gotta hate on the Volus?

    ME3 needs a Volus crew member. Maybe a CAS pilot or something - someone in a position to wreck peoples shit by proxy.

    EDIT: I'd also settle for "shifty banker who saves your ass because everyone everywhere tends to owe him money".

    I still say we need an Elkor player character.

    "Fierce determination: Lock and load."

    "Alarmed: Shields are down."

    "Triumphant: Got him."

    When I went to the Presidium for the first time, and you get a pan-shot across it and see an Elcor walking, I just cracked up. I need one of those in my team.

    A minor complaint: to butt means to strike with one's head, as in "the goat butted my friend".

    Headbutt seems somewhat tautologous.

    I dont get the discussion with Mordin during his loyalty mission over
    the dead Krogan female. It seems the only way to get Paragon points is to be an outright dick to him and be completely oblivious to the obvious fact that without the Genophage the rest of the universe would have simply made the Krogan extinct. He didnt even make the GEnophage he just reengineered it so that they wouldn't resort to killing everyone instead.

    Saying you agree/see his point of view and that he accepts his remorse gives you renegaed points

    Paragon is the ultimate idealist and is very against a "win at any moral cost" type.

    The fact that literally every species we've seen thus far (except I guess the humans and quarians) has been represented by one gender is fairly dissapointing. what gives bioware, it can't be that much more work can it?

    they are afraid the disturbing playerbase will start demanding sexual content from the other species if they introduce even just one female of their kind
