Oh man, don't get me started on poor customer service. It really sucks these days in every retail location and place that has to deal with the public, like hospitals. Especially with younger workers. I know I'm sounding like an old grumpy man, but it is depressing to see how ill mannered people are these days.

ok severely peeved

MASS EFFECT 3
ending WTF!!!!!!!!!!
SPOILERS!!!!! SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!
Spoiler: show
i have played through me1 and me2 and now me3 and imported characters and everything have completed me3 3 times now and had 3 endings and they totally sucked utterly devastated me i cant believe after everything i did through part 1 to 3 ended up with this ending.

LEAVES SO MANY UNANSWERED QUESTIONS
im virtually convinced this isnt the ending i think either shepard is under indoctrination or perhaps was knocked unconscious and dreamed what would happen and the ending may be released on a dlc.
but 45 quid for a game with no ending seems unfair.and if the 3 endings are in fact real then i have no idea and dont understand them.

how can your squad be with you on ground on earth then you blow up the mass relays and suddenly your crew is aboard the normandy hurtling through space away from explosions and crash lands on a planet yet when you first charge the beam in london that takes you to citadel your squad dissapears.
and you hear radio chatter saying everyones dead.
i think shep got knocked out as you see him lying in rubble at the end in london and he takes a deep breath then it goes black but if shepard had indeed went into beam and was transported into space and aboard the citadel and killed reapers how then afterwards can it show you him lying unconscious in the rubble of a building? if he fell from space im sure he wouldnt survive that kind of fall to earth and also in end of game his armours all smashed off and burnt but at end you see him lying in rubble with his armour on?

i think the end of the game is a dream sequence like what happens with little boy through the game when shep sleeps.dlc ending just you watch.

and why did they give us all this nonsense that you choices and actions in mass 1 and 2 will affect mass 3? when all that comes to nothing and affects nothing at all i used an imported character and completed mass effect 3 then a new character and then a female character got all 3 endings and each is virtually a copy of the other with different coloured explosions

im quite annoyed at mass 3 seems like they catered to action fans and call duty and gears type of players and took the story elements and interactions away from mass effect and focused more on shooting and action and multiplayer in mass 3 and made it like any other game out there what was once a greatly interesting and diverse game with many paths and choices and dialogue is now just another action shooter with a garbage ending

no doubt ill probably be right and shepard will have been under reaper indoctrination or uunconscious and imagined what would happen at the end and to get real ending youll have to buy a dlc pack
thanks bio ware for making me waste hours of my life from mass effect 1 to mass 3 and buying all 3 and buying all your dlc so far only to get shafted by your crap ending to what was once a fantastic game now destroyed because you crumbled to the wishes of mainstream action fans

:evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

Spending 7.50 for a 1/2 liter bottle of water, during dinner in Italy

.. I was there for 9 days-- and probably spent near 300.00 just on water---

not to mention--

Cramming to learn Italian in 3 weeks-- and then getting over there and not having to use it once-- (I mean some stores were all in English-- you wouldnt have even known you are in Italy)

And if a whole other country in the middle of Europe can all speak English-- why the hell do we have to have signs in Spanish over here...

You'll get no argument on that from me. English should be our official language.

Second that! All forms to enter this country should be in English, that way it helps them learn it upon entry. If you're going to live in the country... any country, you should speak the language.

You wouldn't believe how many of my students don't feel this way or don't understand it. They'll say hello in spanish because they know it annoys me and I'll tell them to speak english because this is America. They'll come back with "but we need to know spanish here" and when I ask them if people in Mexico would learn English to accommodate them, it dawns on them that it might be a little strange that we do so much to accommodate them.

Regarding students, I've got the same problem over here in AZ. And when I tell them to speak English in my classroom, some of them call it racist. :evil:

And a lot of the same kids that constantly use Spanish in class don't even bother to stand for the Pledge. And before you ask, I was told to let it go, because administration "has bigger fish to fry." :roll:

We're in BIG trouble in this country.

I do not think we should need an official language. People coming here should be intelligent enough to know that is what they need to learn to function here. My grandfather came through Ellis Island and nobody bent over backwards to learn Italian for him. At the same time, I do not think it should be called English because that is not really what we speak. As Gen. Patton once said, we are two people divided by a common language.

The problem is the Mexicans. We get as many as them if not more as we do from all of the rest of South America combine. They act like they don't need to try because they are so close to Mexico as it is and there are so many of them. They even discriminate against the other S. Americans. If it was so great and they like it so much and are so proud of their heritage, why did they leave? (rhetorical)

I have the same problem and unfortunately there's nothing I can do about it either. It infuriates me.

And people are NOT smart enough to think that they need to learn english and all the PC lovers in this country are more than happy to bend over backwards to their will.

There is nothing correct about politically correct, political or otherwise.
