Well I just finished my first play through of Mass Effect 3 and I have to say over all I think it's a superior game to ME2, I didn't encounter any real bugs beyond one that was more annoying than game breaking and really did enjoy playing it. Now I know a lot of people are complaining about the endings of the game and I will say I am a bit on the fence with them while I thought they were mostly good they weren't what I would of liked but hey can't have every thing your way now can you. But I will say that the Red ending was a bit of a let down and I can't really say why with out giving some spoilers so I won't say any thing here for a couple of days at least.
I will say that the environments and how they changed your squad mates alone make this a better game, no longer are the environments clean and sterile they look well more real lived in to me they just felt much more natural so kuddos to the level artists. As for your squad mates they now.... move around the ship no longer do you find them in the same spot all the time doing the same thing over and over, they wander around the ship talking with each other and honestly again it made it them seem so much more like real people. And not until I started my second game did I realize some thing important there costumes have an actual effect on them. I clicked on info when I was picking a squad mate and I noticed that there current outfit gave them a bonus so I switched to another and yes a different bonus showed up. And my only thought was wow this made so much sense I wish they had thought of it sooner.
As for the combat yes it's been ramped up as they said normal is the new veteran but I loved the added challenge and how they improved the powers all thou I still don't see much use in the cryo powers out side of the multiplayer aspect which is fun in it's own right. So I will heartily suggest that people give this game a try but I will warn you that it is darkers and several characters do die in the game and this is one of the few games that really got me emotionally.... uuhhhh not sure what to say so I'll say it got my emotions stirring.

I was pissed at some deaths the game threw at me so far but... you know, I guess it's all part of the terrible war going on.
Now you got me curious about the endings. Can't wait to see it and make my own judgement.
Just beat the game a first time and... Ending is seriously disappointing. I had huuuuge hopes considering how good the rest of the story was. I hope the ending unlocked after a second playthrough is better or heads will roll *evil laugh*
What really insulted me is that the only major difference between the three ending videos is the color of the special effects. You get a very generic view of what happens after your choice and then a quick and incomplete view of your teammates, always with very lazy animations...
It's really disappointing considering how everything else THROUGHOUT the series was always so well executed. They never half-assed any story-line and the endings of the two last games were really satisfying.
It's supposed to be the conclusion of Mass Effect, I can't understand why they rushed the ending like that. Nothing else was rushed story-wise. It just feels like they ran short on time and had to rush what was left to be done... And for some dumb reason that last thing was the most important part of the game : the conclusion to it.
as you say just to short they could of made them longer to better explain things some monologue
wouldn't of hurt either.
I can get all the angry comments raising on the internet these days, althought I don't think the Mass Effect series should be looked down for it.
That and a vote saying that the whole normandy in FTL at the end was just plain odd and made no sense which got my vote. Hopefully they forthcoming DLC will help with things but even on my second and now third play through I am finding or learning new things. Which is why I enjoy this series so much and it saddens me that they likely won't try some thing so ambitious again or so they say but given the money it's made that may change there mind.
