Got it, haven't had a chance to play it yet. I will probably tomorrow/tonight.

The multiplayer is pretty good. Tried out the Firebase Dagger map and the geth and reaper army enemies, which they didn't have in the demo. Played it with three friends last night and all of us were using characters under level 10 but managed to beat the map on silver, although we died plenty and probably only did well enough because we were able to coordinate better. Been playing with the human engineer until I unlock something I like better.

I like the scanning mechanics in this one too - fly around the star system shooting off "radar" beacons and picking up things until the reapers show up and you tear ass out before they catch you.

More spoilers:

In my file he was softly singing that song as he died. :(

Even more spoilers:

Even though I expected it for a while, Thane's death was sad too. I'm glad he didn't just wither away from the Kepral's syndrome. :(

Yet another spoiler:

At least Udina finally got what was a long time coming. <_<

I unlocked the krogan soldier in the demo. He was pretty awesome. I boosted his melee in the talents, gave him a shotgun with the bayonet attachment, and wrecked shit up.

I did get overconfident once and charged an atlas, intending to beat it to death with my head and fists. Don't try that.

But it works!

A krogan soldier that's raging and purges his fortification and has all the melee stuff from tje fitness tree can rape an atlas by continually power attacking. Works best with distracting allies and you do more damage to armor than shields.

When I tried it the atlas apparently decided to stomp me to a paste.

There's a modicum on hope involved. All the boss rypes have am insta finisher with ill defined parameters. Hope to constantly stagger it with melee

I unlocked the drell vanguard in my first veteran pack in both the demo and full game. I never gave it much playtime though. I had been exclusively playing the sentinel before that. The vanguard felt so fragile in comparison.

Spoilers (I just visited Thessia, the asari homeworld, to give you an idea whether this will be a spoiler or not.)

I'm thinking I'm approaching the finale. I'm guessing the next mission I do has me fighting Kai Leng off for good, finding out what been going on with Cerberus, and putting a round between the Illusive Man's eyes. Though Kai Leng seems like kind of a cheesy villain to introduce near the 11th hour (yes, I know he was apparently in the novels or such, they don't really count). And yes, I also realize they didn't really have much of a choice in giving the Illusive Man a new Dragon given that the events of ME2 resulted in him losing Miranda, Jacob, and obviously Shepherd. Kai Leng just seems...meh. I think they could have done a better job on the new right hand man. Thane was right to be disappointed in him. ;)

Messed up a bit with my turian sentinel's talents. He's level 18 now though, so I'll get to promote him away soon and start over.

Also, bought a Spectre Pack and got the M-37 Falcon assault rifle. It fires grenades that explode on contact or bounce around before exploding if they hit the ground or a wall. Useful for taking out guardians if you don't have pull, singularity, or anything else that gets rid of their shield. You can shoot next to the guardian, at their feet, or a wall behind them to take them out. Only problem is that you can only carry around 30 rounds at a time for it and it takes a little longer than most weapons to reload, but you get six rounds in the chamber.

Beat the game. I think I got the "best" ending too.
