Have some decency and don't reveal what happens at the end of Mass Effect 3, please. Like I just said, I've invested time into this series since 2007.
F#ck it.. I just won't visit this thread again any time soon.
Oh.. and as for "the ending sucking"? As we just saw in the "Movies just Watched" thread, there's people that enjoyed that "Immortals" movie, and I just thought it was a convoluted mess; different strokes for different folks.
If you didn't play the first two MEs, of course it's not going to have the same impact on you that it would for people who DID play them... your decisions in the first two games (and there's a LOT of them) all carry over into Mass Effect 3.
Skyrim (Elder Scroll series) and the Mass Effects are two different beasts, and not surprisingly, they always alternate for "Game of the Year", since they're never released on the same year.
