They should do something stupid and hold a poll.

lol
Given how spineless they are about the whole Tali's face thing I would not be surprised if they do. But I already have my predictions all lined up. It well be a male Shepard jerkass with a heart of gold. He will be prejudiced and suspicious of aliens at first because of all the crap the Alliance has put up with starting with the First Contact War. Despite being even more prejudiced than Ashley he will learn about the other races from the non human crew members he picks up and then *sheds manly tear* he learns that the aliens are not so different from humans after all and saves the council at the end.
Seriously, if there is a different character arc than that I will be surprised and impressed. But I think that is the one that is closest to canon that would work in a new movie franchise.

Speaking of life action bioware stuff, when is that Dragon Age one with Felicia Day coming out?

I thought it was just some web based schlock that was released around the time DA 2 went out. Was it supposed to be something other than a viral advertising video?

"Yeah, we got Michael Bay to direct! And Uwe Boll's doing the script! Megan Fox is gonna star in it too!" I wouldn't mind Megan Fox as long as she doesn't have too many lines and bends over a lot. Here's what I think is going to happen: 1) During the 'set-up' every one will mill around asking about each-other's Shepards. Fights will break out between Paragon and Renegade players. 2) Costumes will be admired. Any one dressed as Tali will be sexually assaulted by adolescent males who's physical appearance resembles Jabba the Hut. They are all subdued and released to their handlers [IE: mothers]. 3) Once the march begins, some old lady will see what she believes to be a communist invasion and call the cops. Once the cops arrive and see the plastic toy omni-blades they will open fire. Survivors will be arrested and charged with terrorism. 4) The few who make it to Casey Hudson's announcement thingy will be greeted by the national guard. Just as the neo-nazi weekend commando gives the order to open fire he get the call that these are, in fact, unarmed civilians. Begrudgingly, he orders his troops home. 5) Casey Hudson steps on stage and announces that Mass Effect 3 will be episodic. You only have 2 crew mates, Miranda and Jacob. The rest can be bought individually as DLC for $5.78 each. 6) Zombie apocalypse. I like to be optimistic but it'll probably be a lot worse.

I actually laughed at that. Well done.
I hear rumors that the Mass Effect movie will be an animated film (Think Dead Space: Downfall, with hopefully less suckage) about the first contact war. That sits much better with me than a mainstream Hollywood adaption.

I liked it, but the "neo-nazi weekend commando" gag lost you the potential karma gain. I grant you there are a lot of meatheads in the good ol' boys club that is the military/national guard, but just because they want to serve their country does not make them neo nazis. [/taking waaaay too much out of silly comment]

Also, isn't there supposed to be a Dragon Age Anime out aswell later this year? Also karma point for Renegade.

That was great Renegade. Made my day.
Also about the moderating a fan fic forum, Buch... well I've heard somewhere, that more guys moderate forums that were more geeky/wierd than this.

[/taking waaaay too much out of silly comment] I watched this show on Sons of Guns where this guy who said he was in the National Guard had a straight up hitler stash. So I pretty much had him in mind when I wrote that lol. And I didn't mean to imply the WHOLE military is like that. Just the occasional redneck hillbilly dipshit.
