Now this will prove that people weren't just voting for her because she was blonde.

I voted 3 and 4. Dirty blonde and red head.

I voted for dirty blonde.
BTW, anyone else wondering what Bioware's secret they're revealing at Gamescon will be? Almost everyone on the Bioware forums was expecting either multiplayer or squad stuff, and they were saying they'd cry if it were MP. While I would prefer SP stuff, I think MP in Mass Effect would work extremely well, and I certainly would enjoy it.

Last rumor I heard was that there will be MP, but it is not being done by BiowareEdmonton, but the Bioware Studio that did DragonAge/DA2. So the single player will be untouched by it and won;t suffer from being short-staffed.

Space combat.
















In the Mako, but with wings.

Yes to space combat.
No to the mako. How about the hammerhead? Or better yet, *gasp* The Normandy!



Still waiting for news on Conrad and Joker as squadmates.

If Joker gets an Iron Man like suit and is a squadmate, I'm all for it. Having him as a squadmate might be dangerous, but he still has the bone disease.

Bone disease, shmone disease. He could fire an assault rifle just fine at the end.

You didn't see him fire an assault rifle with his legs. He was always complaining about his legs.

Shepard grabbed his arm in ME2 and he said "Watch the arm!" and he also said he fractured his thumb on the mute button when talking about EDI.

That was a joke.


But in all seriousness, I don't think Joker was lying about having Vrolik's Syndrome, if I remember the name correctly. I like him as much as anyone else, but he wouldn't make much sense as a squadmate imho.

That said, I would rather like to see him play some larger role than couch potato. I was very pleasantly surprised when he actually got up from his chair in ME2 to do something about those darn Collectors.

I know it was a joke. I was joking myself.

Anyways, it doesn't look like Bioware had much to show at gamescon, maybe at PAX Prime.

I was underwhelmed by that leadership trailer. Don't know why, but on a brighter note, that list of info from gamescon is pretty cool.

Yeah, I thought that trailer was kinda underwhelming. But hey, femsheps might be able to romance Joker now. :P

Seeing her trailer will be very exciting. Looking like the red head is winning. Blonde and dirty Blonde are in last. Only 100 votes separate them.

Argh! I get the feeling that the overall best ending will be a pain to get, and possibly requiring many, many save file reloads! :runaway:

That's a problem?
EDIT: Oh, derp. You said reloads, not save files.

Nooooo!

I thought, "any would be okay, except the redhead."

Not that I have anything against redheads. But femshep's red hair looks fake, almost dyed imo.

If only we didn't have two blondes splitting all the "blonde" votes. It's like the election of 1912 all over again....
