Mass Effect Megathread - This one doesn't have time for your solid waste excretions! - Games

I was right about the Earth being under attack by the Reapers. I wonder if this is just their first stop or not...

[QUOTE=Haxxer;26636096]2 kilometers, probably excluding their 'legs'.[/QUOTE] I was saying there's no way it's 15 times the height EVEN WITH the tentacles. I mean... you're probably looking at 10 times the height AT MOST with tentacles. Without tentacles it's significantly smaller.

[img]http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/9756/megethft.jpg[/img] I'd say it's entirely possible.

[QUOTE=Haxxer;26636206][img_thumb]http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/9756/megethft.jpg[/img_thumb] I'd say it's entirely possible.[/QUOTE] Yes, I'd agree with that picture (it was set as my desktop wallpaper for about a year) but the Reapers in the ME3 trailer look more squished up than that. Again, probably just artistic licensing. It might be a little bit difficult to properly show them all if they were so big.

The reapers are made from different species so it's possible that a lot of them won't be as big [editline]11th December 2010[/editline] Anyways I hope ME3 has a happy ending, not the cheap happy ending but the happy ending you have to work hard to get like in Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood

I just realized I sold my Mass Effect 1 for Xbox and I don't own the PC version :saddowns:

Oh God between this and Elder Scrolls 5 announced I am fucking psyched for 2011. [QUOTE=Makol;26636399]I just realized I sold my Mass Effect 1 for Xbox and I don't own the PC version :saddowns:[/QUOTE] Don't worry, it'll probably end up on sale on Steam for like $0.99 at some point this month.

I hope it does.

My Macbook has a new wallpaper, thank you.

[QUOTE=Wiggles;26634988]If the Reapers could blow up entire planets in the blink of an eye, don't you think they would have already?[/QUOTE] No, They simply extricate the sentient species, plucking them like ripe fruit. If you harvested fruit from a tree that reproduced fruit every so often you wouldnt rip the tree up and lose the source.

Added some basic ME3 information to the OP.

This is the greatest day of the year besides the ME2 launch

Holy shit I just saw the ME3 trailer. I got goosebumps.

They better bring back RPG elements 2 was just Gears of War with a dialogue system and waifus

Be right back, blocking all URLs with "mass-effect" in them. [editline]12th December 2010[/editline] Eugh might as well kill internet connection completely :smithicide: [editline]12th December 2010[/editline] Eugh might as well kill internet connection completely :smithicide:

Just saw the trailer. OHMIGOD. :DDDDDD

i'm so excited for garrus effect 3!!!

I giggled like a child when I saw Shepard viewing the scorched Earth. I. Cannot. Wait.

Now the excitement died down, it's time to ignore any news about the game. It's gonna be a long time. [url=http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/MassEffect]And to lose some of that time, how about reading to cool, totally 'not going to lose our life forever' website?[/url]

[QUOTE=Pascall;26637776]i'm so excited for garrus effect 3!!![/QUOTE] Garrus may not return. He could have died in the ending of ME2. He'll most likely be emailing Shepard or have a cameo if was love interest.

Holiday 2011 was expected and that trailer :gizz:

[QUOTE=Alyx Zark;26637837]Garrus may not return. He could have died in the ending of ME2. He'll most likely be emailing Shepard or have a cameo if was love interest.[/QUOTE] don't ruin my hopes and dreams you dream crusher

Garrus can'r die ever. [editline]11th December 2010[/editline] It's all an illusion.

Oh my god why do I keep clicking on this thread. Bad self-restraint, BAD.

I reckon they will go on the statistics of who had their companions die to decide who will survive and play a larger part in ME3. People like Jack who no-one remembers to get the upgrades for will likely die. Mordin is likely to not play much of a role from being an easy target at the barrier also. Other ones like Garrus who have a low chance of dying will probably play a large role.

Endings where Garrus died are non-canon

I'm kind of amazed the millennium wheel in London is still around in 2185+

Just woke up... saw the trailer.... :gizz:

That was the best trailer I ever seen
