Gearing up for Mass Effect 3

[Musketeer]

Bought the collectors edition on release night at midnight. I have a PS3 so I didn't play #1 but I had four full play throughs (80 - 100 hours each) of # 2.

I finished #3 ONCE and am fighting to get myself to play through again with another old character. I won't give away the details but a stellar game was destroyed in the last 10 minutes by ONE, possibly TWO, writers/producers. I will not spoil the details and some liked the ending although everyone must admit (including the Better Business Bureau) that Bioware's promises about the ending were patently false. I would advise reading the following after finishing it.

you should also watch this after finishing it.

Even Bioware admitted they missed the mark after the fans were on the brink of tarring and feathering them and are releasing an extended cut DLC later this summer.

Finally you can read how a writer for the whole series laid the blame for the ending squarely at the feet of the egocentric boss who locked the writing team out of discussions for the ending unlike EVERY OTHER PLOT POINT IN THE SERIES.
