[QUOTE=Zezibesh;26587399]Garrus used to adhere to the rules more (IE the stick up his ass). Now he's a dashing scarred vigilante.[/QUOTE] Wouldn't be surprised if they were also reffering to his fanbase.

This final cutscene gives me chills every time I see it. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qR0eRZtCn_8[/media] I actually try to let at least 1 squad member die just so the music stays in sync.

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;26587399]Garrus used to adhere to the rules more (IE the stick up his ass). Now he's a dashing scarred vigilante.[/QUOTE] I see your point, but it's like they're trying to say Garrus was originally some boring, traditional C-Sec officer that did everything by the book. Which is completely contrary to what he was like.

Been ages since I've revisited this thread, anyone know if any new dlc will be coming out?

Hnnngh, I really like the ambient music of both games: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYtj38KQxm4[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZ4KcSKUuh8[/media]

[QUOTE=Run&Gun12;26588813]Been ages since I've revisited this thread, anyone know if any new dlc will be coming out?[/QUOTE] I think i read something in a review of Lair of the shadow broker. It went something like this: "LotSB is the first in a line of game spanning DLC that are to tie together ME2 and 3" Don´t remember exactly where i read it though

[QUOTE=Wiggles;26586399]Come on, everyone! I've only had two entries so far. If it helps I can post a sneak peak of how awesome these cards will be.[/QUOTE] Are squad member choices open to both games?

I still think the trailer is set in the ruins of Earth during the Reaper invasion. Everything seems too Mass Effect-y.

[QUOTE=Kinversulath;26589342]Are squad member choices open to both games?[/QUOTE] Of course.

[QUOTE=Arachnidus;26589468]I still think the trailer is set in the ruins of Earth during the Reaper invasion. Everything seems too Mass Effect-y.[/QUOTE] Then it would be at the time of ME3, which could prove difficult. The contact war should be better, but fighting only Turians or Reapers seems a bit dull. Honestly I have no idea what war it could be, probably we are all wrong. I should look in a thread that's not Mass Effect related, maybe we're thinking too much in one direction just because we love the ME series so much.

And now that we know we're coming, and with all the preparation since ME1, it's a fair bet to say that, as opposed to the systematic genocide of the Reapers in the past, this would be more of an all out war. I wonder if the Protheans had any allies like Humanity did during their extinction cycle. It's hard to believe this is the first time numerous species evolved.

I don't know if this been posted yet but i will just in case. I am really interested in how they would do multiplayer. [url]http://www.joystiq.com/2010/12/09/rumor-mass-effect-3-to-be-revealed-at-the-vgas-will-include-mu/[/url]

Well I don't give much for rumours, but thank you for the link, was completely new to me. I wouldn't mind a MP mode, but I simply can't imagine something that would suit the kind of style ME is to me. Probably a completely new squad-based team death match. Being able to play all races in a 24 player = 8 squad based combat. Could turn out totally incredible or probably not. At least I can put some belief in BioWare that they didn't get spoiled by the money yet and won't screw with us.

[QUOTE=Arachnidus;26589633] I wonder if the Protheans had any allies like Humanity did during their extinction cycle.

Though that doesn't mean numerous species didn't evolve before the Protheans.

[QUOTE=tommo400;26590520]It's stated the Protheans were the only spacefaring race of their time.

Whatever their greater plan is, they don't want organic life to spread.

On turians, you should be able to make your own tatoos/paints and so on.

[QUOTE=mercurius;26590597]I think only space faring species are a threat to reapers because they can repopulate on other planets. Whatever their greater plan is, they don't want organic life to spread.[/QUOTE] Or they can you know, develop weapons to challenge them in the next extinction cycle.

If done right, MP in ME3 would be awesome. I trust Bioware for this.

[QUOTE=Novangel;26591086]Or they can you know, develop weapons to challenge them in the next extinction cycle.[/QUOTE] Yeah you're right, most likely that as well, but look at us: Our nukes can't do anything because we've never been further than the moon in manned space travel. They would just shoot at any of our rockets with lasers to disable them. The key must be space travel with element zero or mass relays to consider a species doom-worthy. Krogans seem pretty primitive, didn't some other species helped them to advance technologically?

[QUOTE=Kab2tract;26591290]If done right, MP in ME3 would be awesome. I trust Bioware for this.[/QUOTE] No, MP would make less focus on the storyline ME3 should be completely focused on having the best storyline to adequtely finish off the mass effect trilogy without it having deus ex machinas, win buttons or just plain cop outs

[QUOTE=Wiggles;26586399]Come on, everyone! I've only had two entries so far. If it helps I can post a sneak peak of how awesome these cards will be.[/QUOTE] It's a neat idea, I'd enter but I don't really think I'm interesting or noteworthy enough to deserve one.

Highly doubtful ME3 would even be related to the multiplayer projected Bioware does. Why bother speculating on such dumb rumors.

[QUOTE=Arachnidus;26589468]I still think the trailer is set in the ruins of Earth during the Reaper invasion. Everything seems too Mass Effect-y.[/QUOTE] What trailer?

The Spike TV awards teaser. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YkHhNUjAVtk&feature=fvst[/media] Incase you didn't see it.

I used to like Tali, but all of these fucking Talimancers jizzing at the sight of her have made me hate her guts. We need an awesome, badass Quarian squadmate in ME3, like, I dunno, MOTHER FUCKING KAL'REEGER. I would die a happy man to have Adam Baldwin in my squad.

Anyone else listen to the new Tron Legacy track and think a lot of the music would be perfect in a game like ME?
