I just started shouting "NO! NO! NO!" The wife ran in thinking I was on fire or something and is like "WTF IS WRONG!?"
I felt to so bad I had to stop playing for the night.
Dammit Bioware...

Do you mean the alien laser rifle thing? If so, yeah its still in the game. I got it right at the beginning but I have no idea how.
Whoevers running the xbox meta tag, can you accept my friend request? Capn JL Picard is my xbox Live name.
Check out my band, click the banner.
God damnit.
I get the idea behind making the power reset cards something you purchase, but did they seriously have to be rare?
Does anyone know if that warp ability that increase the power of detonations by 50% goes for if warp is used to start the move?
Wait...you have to buy power resets? That's dumb.
Was he a Drell? If so, he was trying to be Thane, though that's dumb, because an Adept would be a better choice for that sad little role-play.
There were so many good, emotional moments. I'm glad I picked my more-or-less 'perfect' ME2 import, rather than my original where Mordin died. I'm not sure how to go about replaying this...I played ME2 like six times, but it seems like the main differences here would be people not being there (making things less cool) or Shepard being a major dick. Just reading about how Tali could end up going...ouch.
As for the ending, I'll agree that it's perfect up til the elevator. Past that...eh. Not what I'd have written. Ideally my ending would involve Shepard having drinks on a beach, not to mention finding out what happened afterwards. Garrus and Javik were with me on the laser run, and for all I know they got fried, but I don't know. But, I've been listening to people forever going on about how it's the worst thing ever in video games, and I don't feel it was that bad. In any case, I'm not sure what BioWare might have announced, but through DLC or future ME-universe games I don't expect this to be the final word.
One question about war asset effect:
Vanguard is a surprisingly intricate class. The frustrating part is that it's deceptively easy. You can plow through Bronze like a fucking rock star, but that shit don't really fly in Silver, and especially not in Gold. Human Vanguards, with Charge/Nova, can be amazingly powerful / useful, but you seriously have to understand when to let it fly, and when to keep it on the chain. I played with some pretty serious guys the other night (all N7 rank 100 or so, like me) and they didn't even want to stay in the Lobby with me, at first, because they've just had really bad experiences with Vanguards. I was able to prove to them that we can be a really great asset, and now I've got some pretty cool people to hang out with.
Most Vanguards are fucking awful, though. It's to the point, now, where I don't even revive Vanguards anymore. At least not the guys who rush off, away from the rest of the party, and get themselves killed in the first minute of a round. Fuck those guys. Either they'll learn not to do that shit, or they'll roll up another class. Either way, it's not my problem. I'm sure as fuck not wasting resources like Medi-gel and Rockets on Bronze, trying to push up and pick them up from the middle of a goddamn enemy spawn.
That's.... wow.
This should be narrated by Marcus Vladov and his son, complete with chalk/crayon drawings.
"What's a Reaper?!"
Not gonna lie, I teared up a little when he said that.
I knew it was coming, but thought maybe he would be lucky like
I've just gotten past Thessia, and I admit, I'm getting too attatched to the characters. I mean, ME 3 took the interactions and fleshed them out even better than ME2 and ME1. My party members actually move to different parts of the ship, joke with each other, cook food, even talk via intercom with the 'guests'. Hell, they even acknowledge that me and Garrus are an item, and not in an unfriendly way. For a non spoiler example, Garrus tells Tali that some chick on the ship got him Turian chocolate. Tali tells me coyly to watch out, that I've got competition.
It also has it's downsides though... spoilers for Rannoch
Yeah. I've wondered why I've gotten kicked from a few games for no reason. Makes sense now.
Also...Cluster Grenade is ridiculous against large enemies. Saw some Drell using them. I dislike Drell Vanguard myself but I can see why it is effective.
Readiness goes up with multiplayer victories.
I kind of want the Asari Vanguard for Stasis. If I could use that on the tougher enemy and Charge one of its buddies, it would be perfect.
The bit with the Normandy outrunning the blast and crash landing on the jungle planet was made no sense whatsoever though.
The map notes lie
Spoilers, obiviously.
Infinitely superior.
only the start
No I heard it all.
No idea what the flags are, but I definitely heard it.
that's....weird
