Harbinger and the Shadow Broker are Reapers, why the hell wouldn't you send them both in during the attack on the Citadel? They definitely would have won that battle with three times the firepower.
not to mention that
if the shadow broker is a reaper, why would he try and sell sheps body to the collectors?
And why would the Shadow Broker hire Wrex to kill Fist when Fist turncoats and joins Saren, no longer selling to the SB?
Makes no sense. The SB is not for the Reapers.

Is it possible to get to level 30 on the first playthrough?
If you import a level 60 character from ME1 and do every single quest in ME2 then yes, I got to level 29 on my first playthrough and I skipped a decent number of the side quests.
It's actually a lot easier than that. I imported a level 48 character who hit 30 before entering the final quest. It's very easy to cap out in this game.
Edit: That is with the xp bonus. So technically not on your very first playthrough without a high level import.
So, things we'll possibly discover in ME3.. may as well spoiler them..
* Reaper tech was used to rebuild Shepard, so you're semi-reaper
* The engine core of the normandy (that big spherical thing in engineering) isn't just a element zero engine core but possibly from Sovereign itself
* The lazarus project massively increased Shepards life span (this is slightly out there, but it sort of makes sense if they want to do future ME games beyond 3 with Shepard.. for example they could skip 50 years or however many years they like.. it'd be a good way to stop themselves from being locked in with most of the the old characters from ME 1 & 2)

if you complete ME2 you get a 15 or 25% bonus to XP gained.
I did a second me1imp game and got to 30 waaaay ahead of the final stages of the game.
guys, i'm having an issue with this game.
and the more i think about it the more it drives me spare.
how the hell do biotics actually do any of the listed things their abilities mention?
mass effect fields could AT BEST render the mass of any object to zero.
this does not (the codex even says so) accelerate the object in anyway shape or form.
In the case of singularity, you're generating a mass effect field that adds a shitton of density to a subatomic particle, which creates a singularity capable of sucking in objects. Lift/Pull probably works very similar to that reasoning and probably nullifies the mass of the target to make lifting easier. Warp is described as a series of unstable mass effect fields that cause "rapid asymmetrical mass changes" that cause the target to rip itself apart. Barrier surrounds the user with a high gravity field which slows incoming projectiles. I'm sure every other power can be described by a combination of those effects.
I also agree with the above post. Pinnacle Station would be a lot of fun. I also think the game could have a fun class based multiplayer mode (you obviously couldn't have the whole toolbox a class does, would have to be trimmed down). Not that I think it will get one, but it would be interesting to see.
Sovereign, Harbinger and the collectors didn't simultaneously attack the Citadel for a variety of possible reasons:
1. Harbinger is in dark space, remotely controlling collectors (although the remote control aspect seems a bit far fetched, let's assume it's somewhat similar to TIM/Normandy's quantum entanglement communication).
2. Against a fleet the collector vessel would likely suffer catastrophic defeat. The ship was suitably pummeled by the ground-based defenses from the human colony (not really severely from what I recall, though). They may have a relatively powerful main gun, but their shields aren't inpenetrable. With the size of the fleet the Alliance brings to the battle the difference would be negligible (even before Sheperd's decision the human fleet rivals the turian fleet...and only the 5th Fleet is actually called in to defend the Citadel immediately).
3. The collectors may be the reapers back-up plan. They've been harvesting random species with genetic peculiarities for years, but only after Sovereign's defeat do they start harvesting whole colonies in an effort to build a new reaper.
4. As a complete alternative, Bioware may completely switch things around and actually have Sovereign be a giant dreadnought that Saren found that's not a reaper. The council was right all along to believe Sheperd was going reaper-crazy that early. Albeit this option is highly unlikely.
The seekers are a bit enigmatic, so there are any number of reasons they weren't used against the Normandy. Any reason against why they would avoid this is speculation at best. Some options are:
1. Seekers don't work well in tightly confined spaces with an abundance of air-tight rooms.
2. The collectors were concerned the ship's atmosphere would immediately be vented and their boarding parties wouldn't be able to do anything on-board.
3. The Normandy's mass effect fields for producing artificial gravity prevent seekers from navigating properly.
4. Paralyzing seekers were designed against human targets and the collectors were expecting a half-alien crew (which happened to be out on a mission).
5. Seekers are expensive and the collector leader's not made out of money, leave him alone!
An alternative option for both potential plot holes: Bioware messed up their lore.
How is the first 1 far-fetched? We witness Harbinger giving up control of the collector general.

Man the PC version spoiled me. I'm testing the 360 version and it just looks washed out in comparison. It's kinda jarring. Oh well, soldiering on.

His control really isn't in question, just the technology behind it. The reapers are still well out in the space between galaxies, but Harbinger can control individual collectors on the fly anywhere. This implies technology even more developed than TIM's quantum entanglement device.
...which itself is sort of ridiculous since it apparently transmits an entire 3D holographic representation of 2 people and an office on the electron configurations of a single atom. But it wouldn't be very exciting to spend an hour to read one sentence.

Mass Fortress 2.
All players would have layers of shield, armor and health, and play classes that are reduced to 2ish abilities, their class unique ability and one other ability that class can have (Potentially player chosen , example, Infiltrator could have Cloak and Incinerate, Adept could use Warp and Singularity). This way, in order to actually get anything done, you'd have to work as a squad to defeat your enemies, focus firing and taking out enemy players in unison to work through levels of armor quickly. Potentially add squad healing abilities on a long cooldown on say, an Engineer, who could have Combat Drone and Reboot, capable of reactivating shields on a target. This would allow for defense at the cost of losing a skill for offense.
Likely? No. I think it could be fun if properly balanced though.
I actually kinda don't like the Quarians that much after talking to him about their past. It's like, if dogs started talking so we killed all the dogs, then the dogs rebelled and we were all "wtf why dogs?!" and left the Earth.
So, just beat the game last night. Man that was fun and awesome, but naturally I have a question:
I ended up with a good portion of the Normandy crew dead, and 2 squadmates dead. For the latter, I realize now it's because I didn't understand what the game was wanting. I figured the list of squadmates it gave me to choose from for those teams at the end were all capable, but apparently you have to choose specific ones.
My question is with the former. I was told that after getting the IFF, you pretty much want to book it to the end so that Kelly and a bunch of the crew don't die. After getting the IFF, I quickly did Legion's loyalty quest and then headed through the Omega Relay, and yet that still happened. What is the exact trigger for your crew dying or not?

The trigger is after you leave on the shuttle and crew gets taken, you can do only 1 'main' mission or 2 'n7' missions without losing the crew, but if that's true or not I'm not sure. I'm going to be testing this on my current playthrough. Are you sure you only did legion's side quest after?

It seems that
You get one or two missions after the IFF before the crew gets taken (possibly the game lets you finish all your loyalty missions; I got to do legion's and tali's after the IFF mission), but as soon as the crew gets kidnapped you have to go immediately, or they start getting waxed.
