On the topic of how the previous games' threat can be topped: I wouldn't care if there was a bigger threat. I'd actually like to see something smaller, something that isn't some ancient threat to the galaxy.

"Since we know BioWare can't handle the far-reaching effects of the four endings ... I'm not entirely convinced that BioWare is the best studio to be doing this."

I know I disagree. If anyone can make a sequel to the trilogy, it's the people who made Mass Effect in the first place.

"Mass Effect isn't just about Shepard and company. Its an entire universe based on mass effect tech, hence the title."

The series is also about the double meaning of the title—how your actions have a mass effect on others throughout the galaxy. While Shepard and the gang were awesome characters, ME3 was the end of their story and I am more than interested in meeting new people in the galaxy.

"What about resurrecting the dark energy plotline that was originally supposed to be the impetus for the Reapers?"

I'd prefer to see a DLC for ME3 about that plotline.
