I remember watching that when it was first posted. Given the fact that Bioware debunked it, it's truly the most amazing coincedence in video game history. If Bioware was smart, they would have ran with it and expanded upon it to make the most mind blowing ending of all time!

indoctrination would've been excellent and fit in perfectly with the series...but instead EA decided to stay the course and just give us more of the bad ending which fits in perfectly with their treatment of loyal customers

That's incorrect. The Reaper logic is to destroy all advanced life, those capable of creating synthetics, so that organic life is not utterly destroyed in a war that the Reapers predict will happen. In their mind they are preserving organic life, at the expense of the advanced races.
Remember we were not destroyed during the Prothean cycle as we were deemed too primitive (same as Asari, Krogan, Turian, Salarian, etc).

I wasn't aware it was already debunked. BioWare should have just ran with it.

Seriously though, what an amazing set of coincidences. I was starting to believe it's possible validity.

You are correct, sir.

I finally got around to finishing Mass Effect 3 and I have to say I thought it was really good, even thought it had a fitting ending given what happens to you at the beginning of Mass Effect 2... They could of done a few things better like creating branches to the 3 various endings based on decisions in the game instead of just giving you choices at the end, kind of negates the purpose of making choices in all 3 games.. Also thought the Illusive Man ending was a bit anti-climatic...

But overall I really like this trilogy and would highly recommend it to anyone who has not played it yet.

Bioware is discussing the possibility of bringing the trilogy to the next gen consoles. I hope they do. I'll get it for sure.

A couple of things I'd like to see are;

-60 fps across all three versions.
-Faster load times (duh)
- The ability to have the default female shepherd from ME1 and ME2 correctly import over to ME3. It infuriated me that they changed her default appearance for the third game. Why, EA? Why???

I finally got around to playing the citadel DLC and it was a ton of fun, loved the banter between the squad and the fact that we could finally play Wrex again, the party was a great way to end the trilogy as well. my only real complaint was that poor Legion, Thane and Mordin couldn't attend and poor Legion didn't even get a mention anywhere unlike the other 2, would've loved for their names to have been included in the toast at the end, but oh well

I agree with these, though I'd also like them to change the gameplay in ME1 a bit. I loved the first game so much, but it was really clunky.

as much as I love the series I have no interest in investing another couple hundred hours into completing it all again on a new system

Feel the same way.
