"Those on my side" argue that the fucker his the ME equivalent of the Arquitect from the Matrix Triology.Thing is, the old man was set up in the last third of Reloaded. The kid appeared in the last 10 minutes of the 3rd, effectively cutting Harbinger from the picture, despite being set up in the end of ME2 and the Arrival dlc, on top of the codex entries that list him as the leader of the invasion on Earth.


And as to the video, I was talking about the Avengers music with the back to back circle lol


And right now I´m on to SP goodness too.But not Skyrim.I´m one for classics, namely ME1.Time for a ME1+ME2+ME3 journey.

Dude, how in the holy name of the sacred tortilla does a character being introduced "at the last 10 minutes" necessarily have any negative effect in the story ? Is that a rule ? Is that a writing law or something ? Because I don't remember Aristotle saying anything about that in his essays about the theatric arts, neither do I remember Robert McKee ever saying it was unconceivable to introduce a character at the final moments of the movie, or anyone else for that matter.

Seriously, the retakers get treated with a vastly layered, new character, meant to represent SO MUCH, and they can only find negative things in it's conception ? Really ? I mean, do you really believe Harbinger, another goddamn reaper that is exactly like all the other reapers, is more worthy of seeing as the "final baddie" ?

Not to mention that there ISN'T a "final baddie", there is a problem, and it needs a solution.

I'll get back on the SP when Omega or something similar comes out, I've had my fill for the moment.

And really dude, play Skyrim, your mind ? You will have to pick the pieces from your ceiling !

Nah, never was a fan of a medieval setting in games.Don´t really know why.

When it comes to Bethesda, I stick the Fallout games and in the future Dishonored...


P.S: Do the Assasin´s Creed games count as medieval?I think they do, and since I´m trying to get into the series, I would say that my "no medieval games" "rule" has atleast one exception...

Started my ME1+ME2+ME3 Engineer file...

ME1 really does not acomodate for a clear difference in classes. ME2 does that, but Enginner is severly lacking compared to the other classes. If tech expertise is a must, Sentinel is way better. Shame, considering AI hacking and Combat Drone can be found elsewhere...

The Extended Cut has a shitload of files from the dlc, even going as far has having already options to talk about him with StarChild.


Leviathan is a Reaper that rebelled against his kind,and in the process killed one of his kind. How he survived after that and what he has been doing after that is anybody´s guess. The only thing that is known is that he indoctrinated a whole colony, and has been chilling in said colony for the last 10 years(his rebellion pre-dates "our" Reaper invasion).~


This is the very basic. I already checked out a shitload of squadmate dialogue and mission dialogue.Not enough to spoil the dlc, but enough to know the basic plot outline.

You couldn't just wait a couple of months to know :lol: ?

I like the idea, it's something any Mass Effect fan would've thought about at some point in the trilogy, and even though I'm just dying to take back Omega, this still seems good, and it's single player which is most important.

The thing I don't like ?

The price tag.

While I'm on the minority that believes Kasumi's DLC was better than Overlord (despite it's short length), I usually feel..............reserved at the 800 MS points thing, it's a very ambiguous price range, and any kind of content, from "shit" to "brilliancy" can fall into it, hardly have I ever paid 1600 MS points for something and gotten a bad deal.

Nah, I´m always on top of the event.When word came out that the EC had dlc files, I wanted to check it out. The last time they messed that bad, they changed the endings. This time I wanted to check out before any changes,if any, where made.


And yeah, if there´s one thing that I always wanted to see,it was a rogue Reaper. Imagine the buddy cop scenarios potential.

Don´t get me wrong, will give this one a a chance, but some good word of mouth from some ME3 acquaintaces will be needed. As it is this needs to be really fucking epic and good to not look too bad compared to Tuchanka and Rannoch.And I am already giving it a "get out of jail" free card by not expecting anything as awesome as Rannoch and Tuchanka.
As of right now the underwater mech section along with the Valkyrie and the AT-12 interest me the most. If I´m going to buy it I´m gonna need more.


But any Aria dlc, I´m sold even before the anouncment...

Oh, and Leviathan comes out the 28th, and there´s a chance that the Aria dlc comes out in the end of the year...

Nah, I only intend to buy dlc when it´s all out.And that decision even predates my issueswith the ending .It´s just smarter.If I buy it as they come out and use them on all files, they loose strength. Better to play all my eight files, wait till everything is out and the buy it and use it on my eight save+ .
