Give respect to get it.

Respect isn't obligatory. I buy a product, I expect what I was promised. Respect is given if the person thinks it's deserved, and what's deserved is relative to different people.

In this case, different people don't think respect is deserved.
 
Here is another ending to ME 3, which Bioware forgot to fix….. how to fix all their lost gamers (customers) who they lost the last few weeks. I, for one will no longer support their artistic crap or their money hungry pockets. If the ending was their best and brightest idea for an ending, wow….. I’m sure some preschool could have done a story writing contest and it would be more interesting and convincing by gamers (not paid reviewers or ones who probably never finished the game before writing their superb review)than their paid writers at Bioware. Bioware lied from the beginning; 16 endings, answer to all our questions will be answered, etc… prior to the release and now Bioware is attempting to fix their product, which was broken at release and correct all the imperfections. Bioware really developed one MASS Legacy with the release of ME3, the fall of Bioware. Last game I will buy at release and pay full price for and fall into the hype sewage pool.
 
This game if far from perfect, none the less I loved running the series. Love the art work.
Sorry for those who don't agree, but the 'ending' is superb. And as some have figured out, this story isn't done yet, so let's not despair.

I don't mean this as an insult to anyone's negative view of the game or how they feel after the ending. But I think the disparity has to do with professionalism. A critical review must be written to certain standards and takes the game as a whole. It should (though they don't always) equally way all areas in which the game delivers, from plot (overall, not just one ten minute cut scene) to acting, gameplay, art direction, music, multiplayer in this case, etc.

A fan/player rating can be "from the gut." If a fan feels hurt/betrayed, they can go and "punish" by leaving a negative review. They have no standard to uphold beyond their own personal ones, and no one is assessing their performance on a professional level. You see this on iTunes games all the time. "This game is awesome, it plays amazing, and it is the best game on iOS ever... but it needs a sequel. 1 Star until you announce this." There is a large disparity with user reviews these days, as people ignore what they liked about a game in order to "take it out" on the dev over one thing they didn't like. They figure it is the best way to get their complaint noticed, since review scores can influence sales.
 
i am still waiting for EA's Origin to change their policy of snagging all my personal data when it runs.
sandboxing it is not my cup of tea solution and considering origin is mandatory, i'll just wait.
after reading all the critics, I guess waiting is not so bad.
 
A lot of you fans are way to critical of the mass effect 3 and it's ending the game is is amazing!
