Jack > Tali or Miranda

As hot as Miranda is, the emotional connection was rather flat between the other two.  Jack gets interesting once you get to know her.

New DLC tomorrow.

No missions, just some armor and a treaty-violating shotgun.

Jack never stops being a stupid bitch though. Sure her backstory is interesting, but I still won't mind if she dies.

Besides, Jack can't do this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZwzoedQ_ZQ8

Right after I posted that, I found out what I was supposed to do.  So, now I'm just jetting around trying to get everything as upgraded as possible before I head through the relay.

Have you done the shuttle trip yet?

Yep.

Okay, so the chain of events is:

Shuttle trip, with consequences
You're jetting around and doing stuff before going through the Relay?

Yeah, just scanning planets.

This could have a negative impact on your crew.

My crew already had the bad stuff happen to them.  I didn't see any mention that I was racing against time to help them.

All of the female crew members have very interesting story lines.

Guys not so much. Garrus and Mordin are the best ones IMO. Grunt and Zaeed are ok. Jacob is bland.

I like Jacob's story. Sure, it's not full of blood and thunder, but I think a significant part of it is on an iPhone app...

I find that most of the characters have a pretty decent story. I think Thane's philosophy about others using his body is kinda BS, but it's part of his culture, I guess.

I can't say I hate any of the squad members, really.

It's all a dream as Shephard asphyxiates in the vacuum of space.

That would be the best ending.  That should also be the ending to Fable 2.

Also, I totally didn't spoil!

Shepard gets around.

He's a masculine whore.

I just checked and all my Shepards are women.

I don't know what's wrong with your copies of the game...

But they can have sex with Sarah Walker.
