I refuse to read and follow any of the links since I actually want to play and enjoy the game..

Good idea, if you are planning to play it I'm sure it's an awesome investment of time.

Well yeah, the journey is supposed to be the reward not the end, kinda like Fallout

And I'm sure some gamers would be happy with that, and agree.

But apparently there's stuff about the ending that are ... strange. For those who DO end up playing ME3 all the way through and are "confused" (to say the least) about the ending(s), after you play it through you might want to seriously consider this "theory" that apparently many people are starting to discuss:

(I do not plan on ever playing the game -- timesink and all that -- but I for some reason decided to watch this video, and although I do not have familiarity with a lot of the background, I found this video very fascinating because it seems to be me to be a logical theory that ties together/explains a whole lotta individual details throughout the game -- shown/described in the video -- that apparently make no sense with a "literal/face value" interpretation)

Maybe the ME3 writers weren't just under a tight time pressure to finish something, and didn't release it prematurely...

DLC is official, coming in the summer, gonna be "extended cut", with "extended scenes that provide additional context and deeper insight to the conclusion of Commander Shepard?s journey"

and the Bioware Boners* keep on coming...

The official BioWare Twitter feed delivered that warning this afternoon:

"Please DO NOT purchase the 320 pt. 'Resurgence Pack' consumable on XBL dash. This was erronously uploaded & we are working to take it down!"
