Yeah, given the fact that Shepard's father was either a member of the Alliance military, a murdered colonist on Mindoir, or some deadbeat from Earth who played no part in his child's life, I highly doubt there is anything to this rumor. And, given that Mass Effect (the first game) already has a prequel (Revelation), I really don't see them doing a game that is another prequel.
