I'd say he is mid 50s at least. No way he is 40. Especially with the longer life expectancy in the ME-verse (though I don't know if that carries over to the look department or not).
It could be that grunt's age just refers to how biologically mature he is, rather than the actual length of his existence. Or maybe okeer's been working on that tube for 20 years.

How exactly do you measure the age of someone artificially grown in a vat anyway?
Surely there is a different formula.
I would think its the same thing as someone who is cryogenically frozen.
e.g. years they are awake and active. Since they essentially suspended in time otherwise. Though with vat grown, there is their "technical" age as well.
How would the two be related? Aside from potential stress it might cause?
err
seriously?
Aside from scarring, yeah how would being shot in the head make you have looser skin in the face + more wrinkles? People have survived as much in real life and I never heard of it actually aging the face.
edit: Although I forgot the specifics of the story, if it was a gun blast that tore off his entire face. I could see the grafting process having an unnatural look. From his profile though, I always imagined it being related to that one half though. And that is how I remember the story, but my memory could be erroneous.

Well great, trying to use the codes in the OP for the other two Dr. Pepper headgear has left me with a bunch of messages "We are sorry, but you have already entered the non-unique code allowed for this promotion." I'm not sure what I did wrong. First time:
1) Log in with my old account.
2) Enter code.
3) Get error message seen above.
So then I:
1) Signed up under a completely new address.
2) Entered code.
3) Bupkiss. Same result.
It's not like I really need them but it'd be damn nice.

I just got the IFF and wow, did not expect that plot twist.
It was not that surprising in hindsight, but to find out that the Geth are not just mindless evil robots was really cool. Now I am just terrified about how Tali will react when she finds out I just recruited what she will think of as one of her dads killers.
And Miranda is still pissed at me. I'm starting to wonder if I will be able to get my paragon up high enough to get her to forgive me for siding with Jack before it is time to enter the relay.
I didn't have enough blue bar to shove a gun in his face the right way (curse you, new game plus) but it didn't seem like there was a ton of change. Probably because you never get to interact with him in any substantial way!
Also I was sort of disappointed in the ending; I mean, he hits the pilot and appears to force vido's gunship down in the jungle, but we don't go after him?
I was always curious what the deal with that was...
I actually thought he was dead until I heard Zaeed's reaction! I mean, most light aircraft don't take too well to crashes in the jungle. That aside, I wonder if he'll play any part in ME3 - the Blue Suns were the most common mook in the game, and I'd be disappointed if their vast numbers and presence are just explained by nothing more sinister than "they're rich".

Haha, whenever I hear Blue Suns I think of Firefly.
Why are so many things in the game based around odd solar things? Blue Suns? Eclipse? That weird friggin star the illusive man burns his retinas watching all day?

I don't think that was the pilot. If I remember correctly, Vido and some of his goons were strapped in at the back of the ship. The guy Zaeed ended up shooting just happened to be sitting next to Vido.

I never had much of a problem with going straight after Vido. I thought that killing him was the whole point, and after all of 30 seconds did not find myself caring much for the... workers?
Maybe I just like going Renegade now and then, and revenge as morally unambiguous as Zaeed's appeals to me.

I replayed the endgame with my last save because the whole losing Mordin thing pissed me off. So I decided to change it up a bit and I was going to keep the Collector Base this time instead of blowing it up. I get to the end and TIM calls me up and I'm all ready to go "really? kill the Collectors and keep the base? Tell me more! Tali interjects and says that we would be no better than the Collectors if we used the base. TIM cuts her off and spouts off some speciesist bullshit about how no alien would understand what this means for humanity. That really honked me off and I changed my mind right there and blew up the base again. However this time, I went away with 75 more gamer points having kept all my crew alive

I had an interjection there that ended up really pissing me off.
When TIM calls and says to spare the base Grunt interjects and says that we should use the base against the Reapers. That just because you get a weapon from an enemy doesn't mean you shouldn't use it. So I'm thinking the whole galaxy will be better off if we have something that can help us against the Reapers.
So I save the base and get back to the Normandy and apparently saving the base also means giving it to Cerberus without telling anyone else. Now everyone is pissed at me about that. Including GRUNT! The one who told me to keep the thing a few minutes ago. It's not like I had a choice after that and gave it to TIM either. The game did that all on it's own.
Suffice it to say I'm going to replay the Collector ship from my last save and blow the thing up. Maybe I can save my entire crew this time too.

He'd still have to be 15 when he founded and funded the Blue Suns.
Good job he did there, what with the above spoiler. Maybe he came into some money or from a rich family?
