And damn, I hate Banshees. The hardest foes I ever had to deal with. It took me about an hour to finish that simple freaking mission at the Asari monastery, 'cos them bitches kept on killing me. After completing it, I threw my controller against the wall in a victorious rage and swore that I’d never play ME3 again.

I haven’t played it for the past five days now. I know I’m missing on the awesome but I still need more time to recover…

Great game. I still Love it. Can get quite addictive if you ain’t too careful.[/quote]

I have been out of town and then got surgery yesterday just realized it was released last week, dont even know if I can play after surgery to my wrist.

Did you go PS3 or XBox?

Got it on both, just to check on the PS3 image quality.

Started playing on the Xbox though.

What happened to your wrist? Hope your recovery is going smoothly.

I’m going to give you some impressions of the ending (having played through ME1 and 2 numerous times).

Some spoilers (generalities) so don’t read my post until you’ve beaten the game.

SPOILER ALERT

It sucks and is a complete failure. A real shame that the last 10 minutes ruin 100’s of hours of epic gaming. There is no closure. This reviewer put it better than I could http://www.gamefront.com/mass-effect-3-ending-hatred-5-reasons-the-fans-are-right/

Suffice it to say, the choices you make over the course of three games matter not. The ending will be slightly different but its basically a copy of Dues Ex Machina or the Matrix. It doesn’t fit the game at all. And then we don’t find out what happens to everyone else after the big battle. I’m as big as a ME fan you’ll find, I love sci-fi and these games are excellent - but wow did that ending just completely fail.

I get that the whole Citadel scene could be a battle against indoctrination, but this is never explained and just an internet theory. It would also mean we’ll have to pay for DLC to explain what the f happened.

There is a mission later on in the game where you get gangbanged by banshees and brutes… no lube. You can’t unhear that magnitude of shrieking.

Can’t wait for the DLC.

Obviously, but for example I just got done with the AI campaign, who would guide me if Legion is KIA?

Who would help out with the Krogan situation if Mordin is KIA?

etc…

47

should I get it for PC or xbox?

Other characters will take their place.

A friend of mine who’s lost Legion in ME2 told me a second version of him is discovered at some point in the game.

If you want better textures and graphics, go PC.

Pure Biotics plz. I had to force myself to be a soldier in ME2 the second play through, and it made me sad the whole time to not have singularity/warp/throw. Biotic detonations against armor FTW.

Hell yeah.

I’m a sentinel. After 30 frustrating minutes of me being repeatedly slain, I had to restart the Monastery mission to recruit a better team (with as much biotics as me) so we could combine our powers to eradicate the damn Banshee Stalkers.

The powers also work great against Brutes, Marauders and phantoms.

God I hate phantoms.

Had a ganglion cyst removed that I have had for past 15 years.

Picked it up yesterday on PS3, played a couple of hours, kind of hard with the brace on feels weird.

I like the look of that brace (Sorry that’s the sadist in me writing).

Good to know you surgery went well. How long do you have to wear that brace for?

Now that you’ve said it, I’m much more aware of how much wrist movement is involved in the constant and often angrily bashing of controls. Small, yet important things we take for granted. I usually feel more stress on my fingers.

How you’re finding the game so far?

OK. I’m a PC dude, anyways.

57

I can’t seem to get a clear answer on this guy’s - but is the multiplayer 4 person only? Mrs Stern and I were considering this for Co-op, but we generally like to exclude randoms. WOuld be great if we could play it 2 person co-op…

Thanks, one of those things I had to get done, was having a decrease in ROM and pain, numbness to my hand. Was effecting my lifting so had to get it cut.
