^ she comes to Shepard's cabin for 'exclusive interviews' after major story events, you can also go to her cabin after each story mission and find her talking to Traynor over radio, you can hear them talk about shit ..

oh by the way, scoring positive points with her in each of the "exclusive interview" sections is also the only way you get to bang jessica chobot.

Galactic readiness doesn't go over 50% if you only play the SP, although the green bar (the "readiness rating") is all that matters to get the best endings and you can max it out just playing SP.

I read a MAJOR spoiler in BioWare forums while I was browsing Mass Effect 2 forums. Why would some douche make a topic in ME3 forum for a ME3 spoiler?

Never before I had a bad day just because of a spoiler. I wish there was a way to forget. Since then, I've been racing through the game.

When such a high profile game is launched in this day & age, you need a total media blackout. By that I mean EVERYTHING.

Still, I did buy the From Ashes DLC and what a rip off it was. The mission itself totally sucked when compared to ME3 but the story and character of Javek were pretty cool. ME DLCs usually cost $7 but this time EA & BioWare set its fans back by $10 and it is less than 45 mins long.

Wrong!

What matters is the "effective military strength rating" you need that to be 4000 & above for the best endings & you definitely need to play MP for that!

Yeah that's what I meant but I got the "best" ending so it is possible without the need for multiplayer, although you need to cover all your bases and do all sidequests/planet scanning/ collecting war assets etc.

man i am getting PAWNED in the final chapter,

Spoiler: show
finally attacked back at earth,but the problem is that the damn enemies are SOOO tough,i dont mind the bruuts that pop out every 2 mins but those Abuses will lead to banes that look like asari's and throw evergy balls (lol) and can like warp or jump 3 or 4 times TOWARDS you are a pain in the ass,i only revive my teammates to distract that thing while i take headshots of it from as far possible. The enemeies in close range are a pain in the ass,they barely go to cover and just keep shooting,PLUS u have to look AT the cover to get into it,otherwise shepard just dives and stands back up,i have died soo many times because of it.

^ Warp ammo works best against them! Use the awesome melee of Shepard if any of the regular soldiers get close!

Position your squad mates close to you don't let them go rogue all over the place! Use their powers properly etc.

Easy peasy..

Let all of them come close (at the end) there is a special weapon behind a counter in the room/shop at the bottom left of the location (when facing the destroyer) with one shot! It takes them out, all of them! (sm1)

Guys I need a little help. I haven been away from PG for quite some time so must have missed a lot. Ans since I am lazy so i would just simply ask rather than flipping through countless pages. I burned the ME3 dvd and tried playing it on my LT+ 2.0. It doesn't play. Do i have it patch the iso or something? I am not getting an Lt 3.0 so is there a way i can play ME on my current console. I have been playing skyrim and dark souls regularly and was expecting that this XGD3 iso will burn and play similar to them but it isnt. What am i suppose to do? Please please help me.

Finished playing this last night and my opinion, During the game play the action scene it was one hell of a awesome epic stuff but the ending was "THATS IT" :( i feel sad for the trilogy to end like that it should have at least a 20min ending :3 so i will rate this 9/10 -0.5 for that endings :( so it 8.5/10 But a must play if you played previous Mass effect games.

Initial impressions:

+ Art and designs
+ Character Models
+ Score
- Lackluster opening (specially compared to ME2)
- Horrible horrible gameplay (traversing and moving around)
- Sound mixing
- Pathetic Sound Mixing
- Laughable animations

Instead of giving it a Hollywood blockbuster look, it kinda goes for a television soap style - with a low quality low budget feel to the cinematic parts.
But I've only played it for 2-3 hours, will give proper impressions after some decent plot progression. Plot and level design might save it, otherwise it's a pretty ordinary game.

I could not get the Geth and Turians BOTH on my side. Didn't have enough reputation to get those dialogue options. Opted to save Turians ofcourse and asked Tali to join Normandy. I like how this decision had an effect on EDI and her reflecting on human's view on synthetics in general.

"Practice, boy. Practice" :p

I imported my character all the way from ME 1. Started my ME 3 game with a lvl30 character (perks of importing a veteran 2 game character). So far, I've only done main quest
Spoiler: show
till the citadel rescue part
, but done a shitload of side quests. I'm already hitting lvl 48 as of this moment :p. EMS is close to 3500 right now. There are only 2 or 3 at most points on the galaxy map which are not done to 100%, rest are all 100% complete. Hoping to get the best possible ending in the first play through, no matter how long it takes. Currently playing as a male Shepard, after which I'll import my female shepard and enjoy the game one more time from a different perspective.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
