True, a comment on YouTube said the same thing: "when i first put the game in and heard this song, i knew that this game was going to be something special. little did i know..."

"...That the Mako was going to make it anything but."

What happens if you charge each other at the same time

The Reapers are destroyed and the game ends.

That song, plus the faces cycling through the menu, really sends the message "You're gonna love every second of this."

What about DownsAnderson's face in the menu though? I laugh hysterically whenever I see Anderson's face in the menu.
So after finishing this again after doing so for the first and only time a year ago, I have to say that the stuff the DLC and EC added make the overall game OK for me now. Though I think not touching anything ME related for so long helped that.

I think this song is just the unofficial theme. It's probably the most memorable song in the entire series.
Just finished Citadel. The story is corny as all hell but none of that matters. I think Bioware really made it their imperative to focus on the fun side for this DLC and it basically turned into one of the best interactive Saturday morning cartoons I've ever experienced.
Just hoped into MP to get the:
"Stood Fast Stood Strong Stood Together" title.
Damn straight we did.
Man it's been a long journey!

I fought him as an Insanity infiltrator and that asshole was tossing incinerate at me while staying cloacked because apparently he gets specced out like you as well.
He also had a goddamn black widow.
That fight was such a pain in the dick.
Still think this is one of the best ME songs.

Dat tingle down your spine.
Ehm.

And great music to enter next stage of battle.

He has the exact same gear and skills that you do. Also being an infiltrator on insanity I have to say being on the wrong end of a black widow is fucking hell.
I caught on to the Clone thing as soon as I saw the video thing, as I couldn't think of any character in the series other than my FemShep that had medium the ME1/2 default red hair.
Being a vanguard, using the exact same fucking shotgun (Wraith?) made for a badass fight. We'd charge at each other, nova each other, back off and fire our shotguns. It was basically 1 to 1 the entire fight, with Garrus and Wrex running after Brooks on the other side of the cargo hold. I was hoping to be able to save the clone, too. Maybe have her sitting around after the citadel DLC in your apartment, learning about your crew and past and stuff.
Garrus may be my one true husbando, but my femshep clone is my one true waifu.
Also, [B]fuck[/B], they missed out on a lot of good LI orientated lines. Imagine Garrus making a off handed comment regarding a threesome. I mean, shit, the strong independent woman has a badass clone. Imagine the possibilities.
Why did bioware decide to make the arena armor Cerberus when there's an N7 version of the same armor in the multiplayer? It's so dumb to be walking around in cerberus colors...

The Cerberus armors, while cool looking, were totally ruined by the fact they had Cerberus logos on them.

The arena owners said they had acquired it after the cerberus attack but yeah, N7 slayer, would have been much better.

fixed that for you.
Is ME3 worth 10 bucks for the multiplayer? (i have a used copy on the ps3)
I hated the Cerberus items since ME2. Shame, they have some nice stats.
[QUOTE=LATTEH;39860373]Is ME3 worth 10 bucks for the multiplayer? (i have a used copy on the ps3)[/QUOTE]
Considering all the free DLC that's come out for multiplayer, I'd definitely say it's worth the money. However, it's got a really stupid unlocking system which means you'll have to play it a ton to get any of the stuff you want.
out of question does the dlc even have any Garrus Tali romance moments or was that just before the attack on earth type thing
Goddamn, the Citadel DLC is nothing but dirty, dirty fanservice, and I loved every fucking second of it. I didn't think I'd truly love anything about ME3 like I did with the previous games, but I think I can safely say I do now. It's just a shame it took a whole year to come along (exactly a year in fact, as ME3 was released on March 9th in Europe).
Some of my highlights: [sp]Garrus and Zaeed's home protection ideas; electing to be Garrus' wingman; bringing back BROFORCE for one last combat mission; Shepard's aural self-reflection; and just about every moment of reflectance and reference.[/sp]
I'm extremely tempted to go back and do the party again with different options, but I think I'll save that for a different playthrough.
I'm a little dicey on the details of Texmod. I found some great retextures of the Cerberus armors (Ajax and regular), but if using texmod will get me banned then I'll deal with the insignias. Anyone here use it?

It's not something they ban for.
I wish there were modding tools so I could put the original Normandy music onto the ME3 ship, it fits the atmosphere perfectly
