Lol no. I learned about 15 years ago what gaming reviews are worth. Which is why I dont get the outrage about biased reviews. As if it has ever been different. I honestly did not think before the outrage that anyone ever reads these let alone takes them serious.
Guess the best thing to do is playing the demo or watching some of the many game play videos on youtube. Than deciding yourself.
Well or just pirate it. :P
One can still buy it later if one feels like it or wants to play the multiplayer (which is surprisingly good imo).
On a related note to that, it was frustrating how much fuel I wasted, or how much the Reaper awareness bar progressed, just because I kept overshooting the stupid target.
Its worse when you end up having full fuel before going into a system, alerting the Reapers while picking up an asset, only to discover that its a sh!t ton of fuel.
I figured out early on that if it is not on a planet, it's fuel. And if you got your asset at the planet already, and the retrieval percentage is 50%, the other item will be fuel so don't bother trying to find it unless you really need to travel some more.
Otherwise, if I still need to find some stuff and the Reapers are alerted, I simply locate my item, allow them to kill me, and start over except with now knowing where which planet to hover over while I scan.
I always save right before going into a system, then I'll get to a point where I can scan with maximum potential range (cluster of planets, etc.) and then just spam the scanner. Retreat and then save. Then, go in at a point in-system where the range to target is shortest and you'll get in and out safely. Save, and then keep on going. I think I only died twice doing that, only because I underestimated their ability to get you once going into a scanned asset and the other for sh!ts 'n' giggles.
On another note, I did get a couple of Alliance and Asari warships out in deep space.
You can hear a "bleep" sound when your ship passes over undiscovered something, without using the scanner.
Also scanner' pulse range is enough to reach two-three nearby planets, saves pulses.
once you find something and the reapers are on to you, just leave, do a mission and come back later - it'll still be there without you having to scan again.
I searched the system with the massrelay after finishing all other systems by that i never needed to buy fuel with money and after i entered a cluster or nebula i fully finished it it is time consuming to return same point again and again but when i saw 100% completed i didn't need to go there again... And i discovered which way you exit the system you enter opposite side of your exit direction ,unless you dont move your shuttle. I was very good at escaping reapers for that reason i never left a system unfinished...
Not sure if the article has been posted, but about the picture with the cupcakes...
And Then BioWare Said, “Let Them Eat CAKE!”

a snippet from the article, regarding what Bioware did with the cupcakes the petition sent over...
The gesture certainly gained our attention both with its creativity and deliciousness. However, while we do appreciate that fans were creative in how they expressed their views, after a lot of discussion, we decided ultimately the reason that they were sent was not done in the context of celebrating the work or accomplishment of the Mass Effect 3 team. This is a subtle, but important aspect in determining how to pass the feedback to the team.
BioWare regularly works with many deserving charities, as such it was decided that rather than passing out the cupcakes to staff or wasting good food, to donate them on behalf of our fans to a local Edmonton youth shelter. We know that for the kids that have to use this facility, something as simple as a cupcake is a rare treat and would definitely brighten up their day. Thank you to the fine folks at the local youth shelter for accepting the donation and to the fans who donated the cupcakes
Always a pain when a system doesn't have a fuel depot or you have max fuel when picking up an asset. The Krogan DMZ may as well been my base of operations considering the amount of times I retreated back there for fuel.
Earlier i was going onn about the music, well, it was just that one track that got stuck in my head.

Its kinda ironic, the piano is like the series, beautiful/emotional, the Reaper blaring(sp) is kinda like the end/bioware. The death of the series is here, and its an ugly end.
Quoted for Truth.We gave them A,B and C. They chose a fourth option. Oh Irony.
But I'm glad the cupcakes went the way of the Retake Mass Effect drive: To charity.
Bioware trolled back successfully... Nonetheless I bet they were quite baffled when the sweets first landed on their doorstep. Wish I had seen the faces.
I bet they've realized by now that it is not a "minority" of users who are unhappy with the ending.
Any news about the new ending DLC or even rumors?
