Mass Effect 3

Better be speculation. If not, then he's gonna pay for not putting on the spoiler tags 😠

Heres the truth, it's like the matrix, there have been many Illusive Men, and Many Shadow Brokers, they are both pawns of the reapers who are put in place to keep tabs on the developemental aspects of this 50th decade batch of civilizations, both to make sure they don't stray frm the evolutionary path that the reapers lay down, and also to make sure a surefire defense against the reapers isn't invented.

They also run a smear campaign burying all evidence of reaper activity as the invasion moves closer to help things along and to create divides in factions, this is why we see the alliance STILL flapping even though they were goddamn witnesses to the first reaper.

Except the Illusive Man brought Shepard back to life to kill teh Reapers. Why would he do that if he was working for them? Why? Why would he do that? Tell me. Tell me now. Tell me now x infinity.

Do it. DOOOOOOOOO IIIIIIIIIIIIIT.

Shepard is an agent for the illusive man, didnt you notice that even when you disagreed with a particular plan of the illusive man, you STILL end up following his recommendations? Shepard is being guided down the path the reapers want, the plan is to "assume control" of the saviour of the galaxy thus making for a more efficient takeover. Shepard has done a fantastic job feeding EDI and the illusive man all the details of the derelict reaper BEFORE the alliance or a Turians could get there. The turians would have gone to the salarians and worked on defenses and weapons based on reaper tech, now they can't because The Illusive Reaper - man has all the data.

Show me some evidence that proves the nonsense you're speaking is true.

It's called Theory Crafting, Nemesis.

Whats nonsensical about it? You did PLAY Mass Effect 2 didn't you? 😕

Best bet to discover the Illusive Man's true motives is to read the Evolution Comics - it's an account of the Illusive Man living through the Turian-Human war... (haven't read it myself yet)

It's more likely to give hard facts rather than speculative theories.

I understand that the Illusive Man is exactly that: and like everyone else I'm intreged to find out what his role is in the whole scheme of things. But he's too pro-human to sell them out to the reapers. Plus you've got to look at the story behind Mass Effect 2...

...Human colonies are being taken and 'harvested' by Collectors for what?

Spoiler:
To be experimented on to create the new breed of Reaper. As Shepard you even have the chance to destroy the Collector base...what does this gain for the Reapers, and to follow your theory, what does this gain for the Illusive Man - if he is an agent of the Reapers?

It was announced that the game will be delayed until the beginning of 2012. Not very surprising, same thing happened with ME2.

These delays are such a nuisance. Game companies shouldn't announce release dates unless they're 100% certain that there will be no chance of any.

Hopefully in this game the Council will have pulled their thumbs out of their asses and will actually do something. Otherwise I fear they'll be in danger of accidentally brutally falling down a flight of bullets.

Knowing them, they'll probably just think it's another Geth invasion and might actually die due to their ignorance.

In one of my playthroughs, I brought Legion to see the Council and he told them that Geth do not posess such advanced technology (the Reapers) and what was their response? "Your trophy is...suspectable." facepalm I hate the Council. I really do.

So many games scheduled for release this holiday season, a lot of them will get pushed back into 2012 I fear. At least other AAA titles will have a shot at GOTY now, because I have a feeling that ME3 would have overshadowed everything else, just like 2 did with poor Red Dead Redemption.

There is always the chance they decided to work on something they didn't think about before they announced any release date. I rather they delay the whole thing and give us an amazing and complete game then just getting half a game and then being forced to download the other half.

QFT. At least we were given the chance to get them all killed in the first game 131

Doubt it. Dragon Age Origins and its sequel have lots of homosexuality going on in them and yet Fox never hounded Bioware for it either because they realized how stupid they looked during the controversy of Mass Effect 1 or their gaydar has been broken for at least three years.

PC Gamer kinda upset me. While I generally enjoy their writing and format better than Game Informer, they revealed some medium-level spoilers about the game in their recent article without prepping me for it like GI does with their spoilers.

And who actually gets upset at changing release dates anymore? Haven't we learned to collectively ignore them when they're that far away? The game will be released at some point. That's enough for me. And honestly, anything to make the November pre-holiday blitz on releases more manageable for me is a good thing.

Agreed, besides, anyone who's ever relied on Valve to release their games has the patience of a saint...
