Greatest Game Of All Time Or Biggest Upset? ME3


The developers of Mass Effect 3 have a choice in front of them. Whether to create the greatest game of all time, or the biggest upset ever. Now lets take a moment to review the massive controversy over the ending of Mass Effect 3. The ending of this game has been the widest spreading and most controversial ending of any game. While many people argue that Bioware (the developing company) should be able to express their artistic freedoms however they want, and that the games ending reflects what they wanted, many and more people believe that Bioware “cheaped out” and simply wrote a terrible ending. Recently, Bioware announced that they intended to release a DLC (downloadable content), which is what many people are claiming they should do; however, instead of making a new ending Bioware has claimed that they are only going to explain the ending through a slideshow and cinematic presentation.

In my opinion, what Bioware has announced they are going to do will be a disappointment to the fans; however, if they release a DLC in which the player can play through what many fans have called “the indoctrination theory” (a theory created by fans that the ending of ME3 is actually all in the main characters head) Bioware has the potential to create one of the best and most memorable games of all time.
