Actually, I'm looking at stuff.

I've located my files I carried over. All of them. I dunno how to activate them, however. If I navigate right to "Pictures" for example, it's empty. But if I go C:/Users:/Tyler:/Pictures, I can find them. I can also find all my game saves.

Now I need to know where to put them. Fuuuuuuuu

I really like that mechanic that shows where the Reapers are. Just seeing a Reaper bearing down on a system on the map is pretty unsettling. Are those systems be liberated, or do you have to wait until the end? Or are they permanently doomed?

[down] Made an error.

"Preeeeetty sure Wrex is still from Tuchanka."

No, I took him into consideration. Shepard out-badasses Wrex. Wrex defeated a Thresher Maw? Shepard can beat half a dozen in ME 1, plus the one on Tuchanka in ME 2. Wrex fought a badass asari commando? Shepard tears them apart for breakfast. Wrex killed a Reaper? Oh wait, no, that was Shepard. Thrice. Wrex came back from the dead? No, that was also Shepard. Shepard took down three merc gangs on Omega. Shepard wiped out the Collectors. Get back to me when Wrex has put down a couple Praetorians, and a whole bunch of Scions. Wrex isn't the one that has a couple hundred Reapers gunning for him.

Shepard's so badass, Wrex isn't even surprised s/he came back from being spaced. A quick "Should've known the void couldn't hold you," and that's that.

Shepard is the biggest badass in the galaxy.

While I agree with that (is there an accurate number for how many soldiers and war machines he's killed?) I hate when people say Shepard is a badass for coming back from the dead. He didn't even do that, he was just rebuilt by Cerberus. Also, he didn't kill any Reaper. He destroyed one fetus and a few hosts of other Reapers. That may change in Mass Effect 3, though...

Wrex defeated a Thresher Maw?

By himself and without any vehicles, yes.

Wrex fought a badass asari commando?Shepard tears them apart for breakfast

The way Wrex told it, this wasn't any generic commando.

By that logic, Saren should have easily killed Shepard considering how easily he killed Nihilus(both are Spectres).

Also, again, not by himself.

Wrex killed a Reaper? Oh wait, no, that was Shepard. Thrice.

Shepard(and friends, one of which can be Wrex, I might add) was able to kill them because:

1) Sovereign was dumb enough to put himself in Saren's body.

2) The Derelict Reaper was mostly disabled and you were literally standing inside its core room.

3) The human reaper was incomplete and had the derpy-est weakpoints ever.

Well, I've got my saves back and stuff. So crisis averted.

What I'm afraid of is that how powerful the Reapers are. If we need to defeat all of them for the game, I really don't know how Bio Ware's going to do that without some sort of Deus ex Machina.

This is my biggest fear for the game.

[up][up] and [up][up][up]

All true, but I was mostly joking.

I would point out that we don't know if Wrex defeated the Maw by himself. The krogan bring friends when they go through the Rite, so Wrex may very well have had buddies with him.

Regardless, when you've got a race of sentient spaceships pissed off at you, you're automatically the ultimate badass.

And one last thing: Wrex would gladly follow Shepard. Shepard has the most badass krogan in the galaxy on his side. There are three types of badasses in the ME universe: The ones following Shepard, the ones killed by Shepard, and the ones just trying to stay on Shepard's good side. Wrex? Jack? Thane? Samara? All of them follow Shepard's orders. Saren? Vasir? Benezia? The Shadow Broker? All killed by Shepard. Hackett? Aria? Allies of Shepard.

Benezia wasn't a badass.

And I thought the Shadow Broker was pretty much hax and hype, but I guess that's up to opinion.

Except for 4/1/2011. That day lingers in my memory like...metaphor here...I should go.

For all the 5 seconds of the CIC they showed, they reverted back to the ME1 levels of darkness.

Way to take the anti-Cerberus kick to its logical extreme, Bioware.

"Sterile" meaning "visible", of course.
