Music[]

Right. What about adding the info that Purgatory's background song is a "Remix" from Need for Speed Carbon?--Tucalipe 22:40, March 8, 2012 (UTC)

Source for this? Lancer1289 22:43, March 8, 2012 (UTC)

Mass Effect 3 Purgatory's BG Song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIy6SHuktAo; NfSC Collector's Edition Bonus DVD Song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4EQpw-bHzNY --Tucalipe 02:08, March 10, 2012 (UTC)

(edit conflict)Let me rephrase, a valid source? YouTube isn't enough here. Lancer1289 02:10, March 10, 2012 (UTC)

Unfortunately, I do not own NfSC, and I don't think you'd be wanting me to ilegally download it just to check that. Neither ilegally extract Mass Effect 3's sound files to obtain Purgatory's soundtrack, which is not part of the official soundtrack. BUT, I can say that the track is also known as "Staggered Injection" by Ekstrak (http://itunes.apple.com/album/staggered/id315696998?i=315697095&ign-mpt=uo=5).--Tucalipe 04:11, March 10, 2012 (UTC)

So...? Isn't this info valid?Tucalipe 03:12, March 13, 2012 (UTC)

Shepard dancing[]

I saw a video of Shepard dancing with his arms up. I figured that drinking would trigger it but 1 or 2 drinks does nothing and 3 drinks puts him on the couch. GRPeng 17:55, March 22, 2012 (UTC)

Things like this belong in the forums or a blog post as this isn't what talk pages are for. Lancer1289 18:08, March 22, 2012 (UTC)

Well... it is something to note that continually drinking will eventually get you thrown out of the club, though you can go back in. I was hoping for a dance also (Im doing a fem shep run). its was 3 drinks > couch then 4-5 drinks and I was in the elevator representing humanity! Willhelm 55 (talk) 21:42, September 13, 2014 (UTC)

Benning Soldiers Near Entrance[]

Right inside the entrance to Purgatory, there is a trio of drunk male Earth soldiers talking about Benning. They refer to a 4th soldier (absent) who drew enemy fire and did what they couldn't do. This may possibly refer to Ambassador Dominic Osoba's son who was stationed at Benning and is missing (Benning: Evidence quest). When obtaining the quest, Osoba describes how soldiers surviving Benning would not look him in the eye. Though there is no direct connection stated through dialog, Osoba may have been referring to this particular group of soldiers. This may be good for Trivia, but lacks strong proof to connect the two parties. --Ayumix 17:19, April 9, 2012 (UTC)

Update: Soldiers confirmed to be from Bilal's unit

The same group started talking about Cerberus soldiers and how they kept "coming and coming". Then one remarks that they shouldn't have "done that to Bilal" (Osoba's son) and calling it "Brutal". Does this qualify for Trivia at this point? --Ayumix 18:39, April 9, 2012 (UTC)

It does not. Lancer1289 18:46, April 9, 2012 (UTC)

Why not? Because it is not trivia material or because it's not specifically mentioned that the two are connected? --silverstrike 19:00, April 9, 2012 (UTC)

actually the two parties are connected. One of the soldiers mentions Bilal by name. See my update above. Ayumix

Location Steve Cortez[]

Should we mention in Trivia that despite him being at the bar on the dance floor the map states him being at the lower bar?--MaverikCH 19:53, April 23, 2012 (UTC)

Background Song[]

So... I'll ask again: The song played at the club is "Staggered Injection" by Ekstrak Can be found here. It's worth noting that the very same song is used on Need for Speed Carbon (which is the album listed at the iTunes Store link above). Is that information worth adding? Tucalipe 21:02, May 13, 2012 (UTC)

James, EDI, Joker?[]

"James Vega can sometimes be found here."

"Sometimes" is a pretty vague term, especially because I don't recall seeing him there any time after Priority: Citadel II, when I only saw him playing cards in the Holding Bay. Likewise, I never saw Joker and EDI in the bar before Priority: Citadel II, they were always hanging out in the Presidium.

Can anyone confirm this, or did I miss a thing? --Ygrain (talk) 10:19, August 16, 2012 (UTC)

Other points of interest[]

I see the Silversun Strip has a "Notes" section. Going from this, I have added a Notes section before the Trivia section in this article for at least two NPC locations. They are notable in that they are the only other NPC interactions not yet covered, but it seems they are not "trivia" and they do not exactly fall under any of the numbered Points of Interest. One is the team of drunk soldiers referencing Bilal Osoba and the other is about "Mel" the marine looking for strippers - who apparently is also a tweeter in Alliance_News_Network/Profiles_in_Courage. 176.31.226.184 15:16, January 17, 2014 (UTC)

Voiced comment when entering area[]

When I exited the elevator at Purgatory for the first time in my current playthrough, I heard a female voice say something like, "Hey, all you sinners. Dance to the music." (I can't remember the exact words, but it was along those lines.) It didn't have an accompanying subtitle. I'm mentioning it because I've never heard it before. Is this something that other players usually hear? -Sophia (talk) 23:18, August 5, 2014 (UTC)

Never mind; I think this is one of a few ambient "DJ" lines that can sometimes be heard near the elevator. I have heard one other (something like, "Hey, all you [something]. Get drunk or get dancing.")
