I am still playing ME3 and the other Mass Effect games, as everybody has said they're good games, but from my standpoint (and this is just me), the ending to ME3 is the culmination of all my time, effort, choices, and money I've invested in the Mass Effect franchise, all the things I've done and the supposed consequences that were going to happen to me, good or bad, to have such an ending like this that ignores all that and more, for such a character and story based game. THAT comes across to me as little more than two birds flipped in front of my face, and makes the game that much more empty.

If this kind of ending was for a game like Gears of War, or another that doesn't focus nearly as much on the story I probably wouldn't have cared nearly as much, but for a game like this where one of the main selling points are choice and consequence, and that has such focus on the characters and story, seems far more than unacceptable. That said I will still be playing the game, but to have such an unsatisfactory ending is making me gradually lose interest, kinda like Indoctrination (no I don't believe in IT), in that I can only ignore it for so long, and the more flaws I find in the game the more they seem to p!$$ me off.
