Can you type your own words? Or do you just pick from three pre-written sentences?

Funny — it's my favorite of the whole series! I couldn't stand Fate.

This makes me a little sad. I understand that infinite combos are deeply problematic from a balance standpoint, and they make competitive gaming an inappropriately lopsided experience.

I don't see why people think the ending sucks so bad. As long as the destruction of a Mass Relay wipes out this entire population of whiny children, it seems like a happy ending to me.

Haven't you heard, wmx77? If you aren't pitching a fit along with the rest of the herd, you're a troll.

Ha — kids?? I'm 34!

That's individual product branding. On those packages, the company logo still appears in racetrack form.

That's fair. It would be pretty awesome to have a game where you just make choices, and there's no Game God telling you whether what you did was good or evil. I never liked the Paragon/Renegade meter.

"I had no idea which was the "good" ending I was after. All three choices I'd been presented with seemed ambiguous. "

"Mass Effect 3 was the penultimate example of this"

How stupid. What... the game about a galaxy-wide alien invasion didn't have the nice, happy, Hollywood ending you were hoping for? Should there been a tidy epilogue of Shepard going grocery shopping while Liara starts a travel agency and Wrex moonlights as babysitter for their little blue kids?

I think the main reason that Ebert is such a lightning rod is that, apart from this particular issue, he is a remarkably thoughtful and intelligent person. I've always loved reading his work, whether it be about movies or nearly anything else.

This has always been too complicated.

Hell yes. Too bad it looks like it will make my computer cry.

I grabbed SimCity on Android, and it's nearly unplayable with touch controls. It seems like a good idea until you try it. It's very hard to do anything with any degree of precision with your fingers in the way.

Depends which god(s) you believe in.

Ha — yeah. "Time inflation" on automobile releases is kind of absurd. Before you know it, cars will be coming out three years ahead of the stated year.

I'm looking forward to trying this, but I still don't really know what to think. I like the idea, and I've loved the Metro interface since my Zune HD. But my Zune HD had a touchscreen, and my computer does not (and will not in the forseeable future).

That has more to do with when you bought your computer than with Microsoft's upgrade cycle. Your complaint is equivalent to buying a 2009 car in 2011, and complaining that the 2012 models are already coming out.

Yup. I'm sure the same people raged when we moved on from DOS to a GUI.
