I've heard loads of people love them for their melee.

I haven't got any of the new stuff but I did unlock a krogan soldier and quarian engineer. I've fallen in love with them both.

Now there's a menage a trois to ponder!

[Cicatrixtwigs]

Right! After managing to score a ridiculous bargain a few weeks ago (£25 for Xbox!) and a few days “working from home” – not as bad as it sounds, I’m actually leaving this job on the 20th and all my work is handed over already - I’ve finally finished ME3.

Played though as my Sentinel import – I’m normally a heavy pistols kind of girl, but I found I spent the first chunk of the game sniping, the middle blowing everything up with the amazing sticky grenade launching pistol, and the end with the disciple shotgun.

I managed to save everyone in ME2 suicide mission so I got to do a lot of great side quests – I’m interested if any of those missions would happen without your ex-crew there, so anyone who lost people like Jack I’d be interested to hear what missions you got!

I was a little gutted there wasn’t more Aria. I genuinely thought I’d get to do something with her after she popped up again. I'm smellling Omega related DLC in the future.

And I got to continue romancing my Turian fella, complete with an adorable date sniping cans on a citadel rooftop – although I got properly outraged at Kaidens comment that I “cheated” on him with Garrus – from what I remember, he bitched me out and then stormed off that last time I saw him!

SO many great series nods. Quite a few jokes about how everyone knows Shep can’t dance.

One of my favourite things? The automatic fish feeder! It cost a lot, but it was better than spending my play time scooping out dead fish. Also, I love that all my model ships were around the Normandy in supply crates so I didn’t have to buy them again And EDI and Jeff and their amazing banterful relationship remained a firm favourite (EDI, oh EDI I love you and you are amazing)

As far as the “Gay” content outrage goes – I genuinely don’t get the issue. I encountered 2 gay characters. Steve, who is mourning his hubby and who you don’t have to talk to if you don’t want to (but I think that was a beautiful side storyline) and 1 woman talking to the front desk at the embassies asking about her Asari wife, and saying that her family disowned her when she married an asari, that you don’t even talk to. *shrugs* Of course you have the chance to romance same sex, but that’s also easy to avoid with your dialog choices if you desperately feel the need to avoid it. People are ridiculous to be upset by it.

Probably my fave moments from the game – without being too spoilerful…

“I don’t need luck, I got ammo!”

The Shroud *bawls* that actually made me tear up, which is a first in a video game.

And my number 1 fave moment?

“Turian Brandy, triple filtered. Introduced to the suit via an emergency induction port.”
“That’s a straw Tali.”
“Emergency. Induction. Port.”

My favourite moment was Kalros 1 - Reaper Destroyer 0. I actually felt like punching the air and going "HOOYAH!!"
