Mass Effect 3

The sniper in the trailer looks infuriatingly like that typical British soldier/thug/mercenary that Hollywood loves. I can't find him, but he looks identical with the big ears. A bit like Ray Stevenson/Jamie Waylett, but not really. ****. You would all recognize him if I could find his name.

It's Simon Pegg. Don't even bother saying I'm wrong, because Simon Pegg is totally going to be in Mass Effect 3 and it might as well be as this guy.

Vinnie Jones / Jason Statham / Sam Worthington? All mixed together? Could this man wind chuck norris in a fight to the death

Another point might be that the Reapers would rather harvest humanity, to make new human form reapers, than glass the planet from orbit or actually come down themselves and completely eradicate them. The fact that we see Shepherd at the end of the trailer might mean that chronologically speaking he's just turned up with his fleet and so the Reapers have decided to skip the harvesting and simply wipe out what remains of humanity to foil Shepherd in his attempt to rescue the planet.

Wouldn't it be easier if the reapers just had the husks grow their own humans rather than take on the ones with all the scary lasers?

Reapers have a history of being kind of stupid in how prideful they get. I have no doubt it will be their downfall.

Would have said Jason Statham but that'd put you guys all on the wrong track. But yes, similar.

It's ******** annoying, I'm on the cusp of remembering. He's from a sci-fi film, he's a heavy weapons guy.

@trailer: **** yeah, let's bring it to their Reaper mothers!

(sorry, it looks horribly generic. Then again, I've never played any ME games before.)

[Evilnightz]

Generic? How?

[Wellenbrecher]

Destroyed city, rough soldier/sniper, overwhelming odds, seemingly invincible bad guys.
That kind of generic I guess.

[Merlkir]

Generic? How?

alien invasion of earth with giant sinister looking ships, separated human resistance, fate of the world in the hands of the hero...

Boring.

edit: yep nailed it.

Ah but you haven't played any of the other ME games, so you don't have any of the rich back story or emotional connections (as corny as that sounds).

I'm hoping it's going to be a spectacular and suitable finish to, imo, one of the best gaming trilogies around. They better not screw this up.

[Evilnightz]

Indeed, the backstory has almost nothing to do with Earth.

[Revilo]

You can't even visit it, the closest you get is a Codex entry and a trip to a moon base overrun with bloody annoying droids.

My thoughts exactly. Thanks.

I feel kind of horrible for saying this, but I actually cared about my crew in ME2. I was seriously flinching when the leader of my striketeam clenched his/her stomach, because I've heard quite a lot about how they possibly die. It's in no way a complex game or rich RPG, but a great experience nevertheless.
