The Little Things 2.0

When facing the first brute on Palaven's moon, Menae, instead of fighting it, turn around and run towards the path you take when searching for Victus. James will say "Commander. We can't let the barricade fall." A moment later the screen says, The Primarch has been killed. After the game reloads, it puts Shepard at that same spot without ever having to fight the brute and you don't get the dialogue from Corinthus telling you where to head to find Victus.

In Overlord, before taking the elevator down to see David, there is a hologram of the SR2 in the middle of the room


When facing Gavin Archer during the ex-Cerberus scientists mission, he will kill himself if you don't tell him about David being safe.

In a ME3 default playthrough....

Ken, Gabby, Ruper Gardner, Thane, Wrex, Kelly, Jack and Ashley/Kaidan's names are on the wall. Samara, Zaeed, Grunt, Legion, and Kasumi are not on the wall or mentioned. Mordin, Miranda and Jacob are the only ones from ME2(besides Garrus and Tali) in ME3. Miranda will always die. Jacob can die if you don't rescue the ex-Cerberus scientists and Mordin can die depending on if you cure/sabotage the genophage. Tali will be exiled and not an Admiral

Eve will always die. No peace between Geth and Quarians. The game will assume the collector base has been destroyed, so if you decide to a low ems run and want to pick control, you won't be able to. When talking with TIM on Mars, the collector base is never mentioned.

The Salarian Councilor will always be killed



If you avoid talking with Lt. Kurin on Thessia, you can see an Asari standing on some containers using warp(I believe that's being used) on the husks. You can't kill the husks running to the perimeter. Only the Asari can. You don't have to use the turret to kill the uglies.

To avoid hearing the dialogue about T'soni saying Alliance provide air support, just run past the uglies. If you choose to run past the uglies to get to the barrier for the temple, a harvester will block you. Once you kill it you can activated the lock even if your squadmates are still fighting the uglies.

Before going into the temple, walk to the edge and T'soni will say "There was 5 billion when this war started. I wonder how many Asari have died today?"

If you stay in the same spot and look around, you will not see any reapers at all. You see some damage and smoke, but the reapers are nowhere to be seen. You still can hear fighting, just can't see it.

When I activate all the artifacts, I usually start with the plaque to the left of the beacon. This time I started with the shield and heard dialogue I haven't heard before.

Kaidan: " Doesn't that look like a Prothean?"
T'soni: "Not necessarily."

I believe , depending on which artifact is activated first, and not the beacon in the middle, that you get different lines of dialogue.

Before the VI turns into a Prothean form, you can see 3 or 4 harvesters flying in the background.

Before I went in the chapel, I ran all the way back and got the hydra missile launcher to use on Kai Leng. Of course I wasted my time doing that since it had no effect.



On Rannoch while a squadmate is disabling the first AA gun, run past the geth till you get the cutscene with Dorn 'Hazt. Run to the next AA gun, your squadmate is still trying to disable the first one, Shepard and the other squadmate will kill the geth and that's when the other squadmate shows up.

When using the turret in the shuttle, shoot at Koris for a couple lines of dialogue.



After killing the 3 primes, point the weapon at anything but the target and Joker and Shepard have interesting dialogue.

Joker: "Any damage Commander?"
Shepard: "Negative. I'll retarget."
Joker: "Well, try not to blow up anything important."



After dealing with the Geth and Quarians, you receive and email from Oriana Lawson, Miranda's sister. This happens if Miranda was killed in ME2.

On Sanctuary, the pods that are seen on the walls are call spore pods and the ones on the floor are called gestation pods.

If Miranda is not in ME3, you can choose to let Henry Lawson walk away. This only happens if you don't use the interrupt. Depending on the dialogue chosen, and the interrupt being ignored, both Oriana and Henry can die

When doing an ME3 default playthrough you call Anderson , Admiral, when you see him on the shuttle in London, whereas with an import, Shepard will say, Anderson.

Before firing the cain at the Hades Cannon, you will see a clock tower with the time 1005. In one of the slides in destroy ending, you see a slide with 4 people and a clock tower(not sure if its the same one) with the time of 1005.

If you don't get on the shuttle in London it will blow up giving you a CRITICAL MISSION FAILURE Evac Shuttle has been destroyed. You get some extra dialogue from Coates if you don't get on the shuttle.

When talking with hologram Jacob, he will say yes sir to femshep.

When you ask to speak with Jack, the guy apparently knows which Jack Shepard wants to talk with. I guess there's only one Jack in the galaxy

After Shepard is hit by Harbinger, his/her armor is blown off his/her body, but yet the other bodies in the same area still have their armor on.

Once you gain control of Shepard, after going up the beam, if you look up you can see a body on one of the tubes.

A lot of the bodies look like the mannequins I saw at the department store the other day

When you reaching the chasm Anderson mentions, turn around and look to your left and right and see waterfalls with looks to be blood in them. Someone with a flycam might be able to see how far down the falls go.

Before moving forward when you see Anderson at the panel, turn around and walk back to the door you came through. If you look back, Anderson will not be at the panel. You may have to move to the left to get a better look to see the panel without Anderson being there.

Wow that's surprisingly.... dark. 

I don't know if you've already said it, themikefest:

Conrad Verner can help to the war effort: he wrote a doctoral dissertation about Dark Energy, folks. However, it recquires a lot of things (really, a lot) in order to achive the war effort:
1) First of all, Conrad has to be alive in ME3. That happens if you speak with him three times in ME1 until you can use paragon or renegade options, and if you don't send him to hell because you have bigger problems than help him in ME2.

2) You must have completed the sidequest of Gavin Hossle (from Feros) en ME1.

3) You must have at least 10 Matriach Dilinaga texts in ME1.

4) You must have bought Elkoss Combine license.

5) (plus) If you want Conrad to survive in ME3, you must complete Rita's sister sidequest in ME1.

Awesome 0_0

my last Shepard made all this....excepted step 1. Shame.

A little, LITTLE thing that I love it is the sound of the Zaeed's grenades. Sound like some sphericals objects made of glass, breaking. Never gets old.

When fighting the cannibals on Earth at the beginning while waiting for the Normandy, if you take the fight to them, after a few moments Joker will say, The calvary has arrived bombing that area with Anderson and Shepard in the blast zone.

Before climbing down the ladder to the building you see the kid enter, turn around and walk to the edge, you will see two skycars below in the parking lot

When the hologram edi takes over platform eva and becomes platform edi, it will have no damage on it from being on fire and the shots that were fired at it from Ashley/Kaidan and Shepard. Does it have its own repair protocol like the Colossus on Haelstom? If so, why does it need med-gel if it "dies" during a mission?

When you enter the building on Sanctuary, the window on the left has a spot that can be activated with the squadmates having a couple lines of dialogue.

After healing Wilson in ME2, he says to use overload to explode the cannisters. The cannisters explode before he uses overload and a moment later you see him use the power.

After killing the first Scion that is encounter, during the IFF mission, if Garrus, Tali or Jacob are on the mission, they have dialogue talking about the dragon's teeth that is seen in the background. To have this happen, walk towards the dragon's teeth where a prompt is seen for the player to activate.

When opening Shepard's private terminal with team status highlighted, there are 4 silhouttes. Garrus, Thane, Tali and Mordin

When talking with Adams about the GX12 thermal pipe, Ken will mention that a crew member was killed, if the shield upgrade wasn't purchased, but if you do get the upgrade after the suicide mission, Ken will not mention that a crew member died

When fighting Kai Leng on Thessia, if you run past him the barrier for the chapel is up and when he recharges, the gunship won't fire on you. At least it didn't fire on me

If you speak with Samara on the Citadel after doing the Monestary mission and before fighting the reaper on Rannoch, she will mention the reaper on Tuchanka and if you talk with her after Rannoch, she will mention the reaper on Rannoch being the third one that Shepard has defeated.

When going back to the Citadel, after curing/sabotaging the genophage, Shepard walks to the cockpit wearing his/her casual clothing and when Joker checks emergency channels, Shepard's weapon appears out of nowhere on his/her back or on the hip if using a pistol.
