Mass Effect 3
AceHigh:
Well, I did not discarded politics either. I actually believe that having a human led council with my friend Anderson in it will be more helpfull, than a stronger alien led council that ignores everything I say.
Think about it, if the developers made you regret saving the council in ME2, what makes you think they will give you a "I told you so" opportunity? We can speculate, but one cool thing about roleplay games is when you actually take actions that you really mean and not because you know that they will give you certain paragon or renegade points...
That is of course a shitty thing about ME games, if you go 50/50 on para/renegade, then you will fail in most conversations. Personally I boosted those points with skills so I am at 100% para and about 30% renegade. Renegade actions are really useful in ME2 and this one is my favourite:

Nah, I actually saved the Council because I was all like "Humanity's awesome enough to save your asses AND the rest of the universe!"
And it worked.
And given the trailer for ME3, I fail to see how I WON'T have the "I told you so" option, what with the invasion actually happening and all. :P

--- Quote ---Got my new Game Informer, read the ME3 article. Game starts with Shepard on Earth, effectively on trial in regard to the events of Arrival, and in the middle of the trial, the Reapers invade. Prologue involves Shepard's escape to the Normandy, and off to start finding those allies, fighting Reaper troops (husks of all the different species) the whole way.
Confirmed squadmates: Liara, Ashley/Kaiden, Garrus (if he's alive) and... James Sanders... That must be the guy from the trailer, I don't remember.
Speaking of which, there's a screenshot of Ashley with her hair down, and she actually looks hot. Don't have a scanner, so wait till someone with one turns up.
Confirmed to appear, but not guaranteed as squaddies: Wrex, Mordin, Legion, and Anderson. Obviously, if they live.
The game will by default feature a "previously on Mass Effect" comic to make decisions with if starting from scratch.
The Illusive Man also plays a prominent role, and Cerberus is out to kill Shepard. Reason why is unknown at this point.
The RPG elements are being beefed up, not going back to ME1, but giving more freedom with the character skills. Skill trees will be larger, and powers will evolve several times instead of just once, offering even more freedom. Weapons are ME2 style, with a set list, but mods make a return, not in the ME1 style, but allowing you to swap out different parts such as barrels, scopes, and so on, which effect both the weapon's combat performance and its appearance.
All classes can wield all weapons unhindered now, but will have limited slots to carry them. Only the Soldier can carry all weapons at once. Probably means Adept, Engineer, and Sentinal will be limited to two, and Vanguard and Infiltrator will have three.
Also mentioned: The game will have numerous endings, some good, some bad, and who you have in your squad and which allies you recruit can have a drastic effect on which are available.
That's basically the gist of it, except for the sidebars filled with stuff everyone already knows.

James Sanders is not the sniper from the trailer. Has been confirmed (EDIT: no source as I only read it on the site I mentioned way down this comment and they too don't list a source >_>)
I read this information earlier today on a German games site. Nifty stuff but I'm still cautious (not that it would prevent me from buying it though :O Too much a fan of the ME universe)
