From a purely mechanical standpoint, the mission journal. It's basically indefensible; I may be confused by Bioware's motives for the writing of the ending, but I'm really baffled by what they were thinking when they designed that.

But I, personally, don't think ME3 was a bad game. What it was was patchy. The good parts were really good, but there were a lot of not-so-good parts; as I alluded to before, I think that the way it was written (if the rumors are true, anyway) has a very great deal to do with that.
