Playing through this level was the last truly enjoyable part of the game. You'd fight through hordes of husks. Then all of a sudden you'd find yourself in an abandoned street. It's quiet. Too quiet. A banshee shrieks in the distance. This theme starts playing and you know you're in for the toughest fight of your life.

[@NathanSifu]

I can honestly say that the final mission was one of my favorites. So so intense and at first without music. Then when you are in the SHIT, this plays. Literally staring at the screen and breathing heavy when the banshees arrive. Brilliant.

[@dalekthal9569]

You ever done this on insanity? That is true pain Still, I guess that's why the difficulty is called 'insanity'- you repeat the same thing over and over expecting different results. Those damn banshees end every insanity playthrough

[@NathanSifu]

I have beaten it on insanity before, and it's freaking bananas man! There is one thing you could do to help though, if you have The Citadel DLC, you'll earn a special pistol that's really powerful. It's a huge help.

[@Orikon25]

Obvious troll is obvious. That final mission is hands down the worst thing that has happened to the trilogy. Biggest pile of shit I've ever seen put into one mission. Plot contradictions? Double Check. Horde mode in the most important mission in the trilogy? Check. Terrible,lame and lazy map design? Check. Bugs? Check. Unfinished textures all over the place? Check. Cut content? Double check. Not a single color but grey,brown and dark? Check. Terrible textures and graphics in general? Check. "Retaking Earth"? Nope. "Fuck logic" moments? Double check. Call of Duty? Check. Lame speeches? Check. Completely misfitting and unrealistic depressing tone through the entire mission? Check. No music? Check. Reused music? Double check. The Battle for Earth track above has been used at least 4 times in the mission. Big Ben somehow manages to survive the whole war while the rest of London is unrecognizable? Check. Fun facts: - "This is it." cliche has been used around 4-5 times in that one,single mission. - Anderson was born in London. Yeah,you know what I mean. *British accent* - Bioware probably spent 4 days working on the whole level,and probably the last 20 minutes on the ending itself before sending the "finished" ME3 product into certification.

[@NathanSifu]

You're certainly entitled to your opinion, but no it was not a troll, so take you're "obvious troll is obvious" cliche and and post it somewhere else. I legitimately enjoyed this part of the game... I'm allowed to like something... If you didn't like it that's fine, but when you produce your own video game that is better than mass effect, let me know.

[@MelquisG]

Orikon25 Everything you said its true, but it was because the game was rushed by order of EA Games to get more money for BF4 develop, thats why you spend a lot of time on the krogan and quarian campaigns and suddenly everything goes on fast forward, only 3 missions to finish the game, and yea the ending was the worst crap i ever saw in my whole life, but at the end the trilogy teaches you and makes you feel things that BF4 or COD will never be able, this game changed my life forever in a really good way, the game teaches you about tolerance, about staying strong in the worst moments and never surrender, about friendship and sacrifice, and thats the important things about games, i mean, REAL GAMES, not all that "good graphics" shooting and killing bullshit of this days...

[@lettow4372]

I remember now. Packs of Brutes and Banshees pushing at the back and The Reaper guarding gateway to the Citadel at the front. No Fear, No Hesitation. THIS IS MY PLANET! BRING IT ON, YOU UGLY SONS OF BITCHES! Hell, that was Epic feeling.

*EA, not BioWare. EA and their pushing for faster release. Notice, that Krogan and Quarian campagins are well developed, but latter missions are much worse - EA cut time limit for BioWare and forced release of unfinished game.
