my choices

but overall, lame picks this year
 
have they announced what day this is yet
 
SO everything that has Dishonored or Guild Wars 2 should win :D
 
I was actually really surprised that Journey was up there so much. GOD WHAT A GOOD GAME I'm sure it won't win anything (maybe song and original score. maybe independent?) but ugh it's really good

Dont count it out, Bastion was up there a lot there last year and it won a lot of stuff (from everywhere, not just VGAs)
 
ME3 is an RPG? Since when? Because I don't remember any of my choices making a DAMN DIFFERENCE!!!

Sorry, still bitter. Insanely eye-twitchingly bitter.
 
Yeah it was a real stinker way to end it
 
MASS EFFECT 3 HAD THE WORST ENDING OF ALL TIME. OF ALL TIME!
 
seriously what a fuckin let down

where's my garrus dating sim
 
where's my extended cut where shepard is a ghost and her and mor mor just be best friends in mass effect heaven
 
Mass Effect 4: Mass Effect 3 was just a dream. WOOOO
 
Bayli we need to get on that dating sim. Can you imagine the business?

I hear the extended cut is...ok. It placated some people. I haven't seen it and I really don't want to. It's bullshit. I'm sorry but EA and Bioware farted up an extreme gas cloud of *bleep*ery with this. I did everything right. I should have saved the day and gotten my hot piece of Garrus ass. Shepard deserved a happy ending. Damnit.
 
It is slightly better. It makes the endings more palatable. Doesn't mean they're not still inane bs. Like eating a sugar coated turd.

RIGHT? I can't even bring myself to beat it again because WHAT'S THE POINT! I just want to retire with Garrus on a tropical island with our adopted Krogan babies... Oh, I'm getting the brain pains.
 
Mordin's death still makes me cry. So pointless!! But at least it was noble.

I'm also very glad that I'm not the only one with dirty thoughts for Garrus. I bet the character designers had no idea what they were getting into. *purr*
