Then, there was

And it was so awesome that everyone realized that the first one was actually kind of not that great.

Now, in just three days...

As the thread title says, spoiler any and all discussion about ME3, no matter how trivial.

Lots of folks are playing the multiplayer demo. You can get a list of people to add for Origin, XBL, or PSN here. The multiplayer demo is going offline on Monday, and your XP and unlocks won't carry over to the main game. So get these games in while you can before you have to go back to spending every night praying for a cool class unlock!

I just sorta slapped this together so if anyone would like me to add anything else lemme know.

    Flood of batarian traffic brings rumors of war
    By Shirin Kazemi

    UTOPIA SYSTEM – A massive influx of batarian ships is raising tensions in the Exodus Cluster, putting Alliance forces on high alert. According to Alliance officials, the ships came from the batarian-held Harsa relay with minimal warning, some barreling right through. The Alliance reportedly fired on some of the ships with the intent to disable them.

    “It’s a miracle any of them are still alive,” one human frigate captain said. According to the batarians, they are neither invaders nor defectors, but refugees. They claim a hostile species has attacked the Hegemony’s fleet, bombarding Khar’shan and other batarian planets.

    With the Harsa comm buoy system crippled, communication is sporadic at best between far-flung batarians and their government on Khar’shan. Some refugees claim the attackers were Council. Others blame the geth or even the rachni. All report that the enemy, in whatever form, is blockading the relay, destroying most spacecraft trying to make it through. The refugees are not solely civilians. Hegemony Commander, Eruz Mathat, who is under guard while his cruiser is inspected, was blunt in his assessment of the situation. “I never thought I would say this to the human navy,” he said, “but we need you.”

    I was just crafting a new OP. Thanks for beating me to the punch. Seriously, mine would have been mediocre.

    Just made it to wave 9 on gold with some forum peeps. Our defeat was of questionable circumstance.

    Put in info about the saves, since someone asks about transferring between PC/XBox360 and saves so they can import about every 10 pages. Also add some info re: adding old copies of Mass Effect to Origin. Aside from that, whatever strikes your fancy.

    So I went from having no revenant to having a revenant II.

    You know how sometimes you've been trying to get something so long that finally getting it is just kind of hollow?

    Yeah, it's not like that. 8->

    A trap is for fish: when you've got the fish, you can forget the trap. A snare is for rabbits: when you've got the rabbit, you can forget the snare. Words are for meaning: when you've got the meaning, you can forget the words.

    Speed Racer, you need to put in the link to the google document for multiplayer handles.

    edit: Make the multiplayer list stand out more

    Also, this video

    The multiplayer link is in there, just maybe not as obvious as it could be. And if you include the cinematic trailer, you gotta include the femshep one. Dat music.

    Amazon delivery date shipping still hasn't shipped. I had a book ship yesterday that arrived around 6pm today. Really hoping that the game arrives earlier in the day.

    By the by, I saw that earlier in your op, did you put it in after I found it today or was it there for a while?

    Honestly just curious.

    I told you guys three days ago that a full rip of the install disc had been leaked. I don't care how many spoiler tags you shove it behind. Every last cut-scene and audio file is currently available. Don't post shit that's ripped from the leak.

    Or if you do post shit that's ripped from the leak, without a proper "Hey I got this from a leaked rip", then you get jailed/banned.

    Also jailed/banned for trying to get the game early.

    You should go carnage-spam build and find out how well it works

    A trap is for fish: when you've got the fish, you can forget the trap. A snare is for rabbits: when you've got the rabbit, you can forget the snare. Words are for meaning: when you've got the meaning, you can forget the words.

    I too remember when ME1 was the best thing ever

    why did you have to go and ruin that, ME2

    The sad thing is that they couldn't beat the first one in terms of story. It's like the noodle incident in Calvin & Hobbes, revealing things always leads up to a disappointment since nothing can live up to the reader's (or in this case player's) expectations. That said I haven't taken a look at anything ME3 related, since I have no access to a console or a PC strong enough, I don't want to torture myself with anticipation. So maybe ME3 will blow my mind more than any other, who knows.
