  • -"Ahh yes...The council...Leaders of citadel space, allegedly carrying the wisdom in the voices of each respective species."

    -"Oh we have dismissed that claim."

  • I don't get why people hate the council. OK yes the turian councilor is a bit of a dick. But try to see things from their point of view. Would you believe if someone just came out and said that "ancient living machines will destroy the galaxy so i need you to start a massive war in the terminus to make sure its true." Throw em a friggen bone. IMO the renegade decisions solve problems short term, but they will bite Shepard in the ass in the long run.

  • why the just dont EMP the reapers

  • @JetAge96 lol hmm a giant emp space nuke... interesting but u would need like a crap load of nukes to get the emp effect and then theres the super advanced tech of the reaper sheilding.... just get the death star LOL

  • @edward5331

    ni in me3 earth will be attacked so lets say london is one of attacked cittys just blow one in atmosphere

  • i can just wonder expresion on face of volus when they heard that humans got seet on councli beffore them

  • 1:15, OH NOES TEH TENTACLE OF DOOM!

  • "Ah yes, reapers. We have dismissed that claim."

    I'm glad I saved him. Particularly because I'm looking forward to rubbing that Turian's face in that 'dismissed claim'.

  • Your Femshep is hot. Do you have a ME2 face code for her?

  • I just noticed that the armor Tali wore in this video really shows off her face. :)

    what armor is she wearing anyway, cuz after quarian Colossus armor i said fuck it to all other ones.

  • Sovereign and Harbinger disliked this video.

  • You can play as unmasked female Darth Vader?

  • I almost killed the council, but I was a Paragon =/ they were such racists =P

  • oh yeah council befor i leave i have something for

    FAAAAALCOOOOOWN PAAAAWNCH

    PAAAAAAAWNCH

    PAAAAAAAWNCH

    Udinia: shepard what thr hell do yo PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWNCH

    (anderson stares)

    Shepard: what..........they were giving me snide insutations

  • Canonically, I couldn't bring it upon myself to save the council. "Lead, follow, or get the hell out of the way," is the motto. The council failed to do either one. It was too late for them. Oh well.

  • @Agent1W the only time they got the hell outta the way was when we hung up. they never bothered to bother us again right after like an idiot

  • @Toddlaf It's going to get interesting in Mass Effect 3 when the Reaper Fleets besiege Earth itself. Would the asari, turians, and salarians save us then? O_O

    The turians especially would have a "See-I-told-you-so" attitude then!

  • @Agent1W What about the krogan? if we have them then its like a "dont worry when the Reapers come Wrex will protect ya" moment, i think and damn well hope!

  • i always save the council because im hopong for the great "i told you so" moment in

    mass effect 3!

  • i love how quickly you chose captain anderson. i guess it's a no brainer for most mass effect players, plus the fact that udina is a annoying little fag the entire game.

  • Mass Effect 1 had something about it that I couldn't put my finger on. Thats why I like it more than ME2

  • I let them live too.

    On the downside, they're still idiots in ME 2.

    On the upside, a rather hilarious moment of Turian air quotes.

  • Yeah, these bastards survive and in mass effect 2 they act as dumb as they can.

  • was that tali?

  • I can't believe how arrogant those council guys are!!

    I did good to let them die...

  • i do not see why not to save council i mean you lot of humans die but those humans do not have their voice actor and that is the reason why not to mourn them or feel bad about that

  • does anyone know what happens in ME2 if u don't choose udina or anderson for the council??

  • @Ry171 The game makes you choose one at the beginning, regardless of how you ended Mass Effect 1, because that choice was made after the save that gets imported. Even if you chose neither, yes.

  • seriously, one of the coolest videogame endings of all time is when you save the council

  • lol now who would want to save the pathetic council? they did nothing during the game except show up as holograms they arent worth saving

  • 4:45 - 4:52 LOL, partially owned.

  • Comment removed

  • Udina at 5:00

    LOl

  • omg wtf this end sucked now that i see it again, i prefer 1987234529 times ME2's ending, when everyone dies... it looks so heroic... and when everyone lives too. ME2 owns ME1 :D. It's also pro when u start dieing on ME2 when u kill the council in ME1, too pro to be true :D

  • im thinking that in MS2 when andersoon is in council and gives shepard his specter status again will back fire on him in MS3 mabey 2 version depending on if the council lives or dies and if its all human or aliens.

    but if you pick udina as the human rep in the council then andersson will be and admiral and that might serve him better role on MS3 so i chesoed udina as the rep for that reason so we will see. and beside being a spectre in MS2 does not impact the story mutch.

  • i let the council die^^ and as the question came who i would place as new councilchief i said, that i dont care who it will be^^ in ME2 than it was Anderson^^

  • they made captain anderson look so funny lol

  • Lol I remember the council telling Shepard that he/she should be prepared to make tough decisions for the good of all. I wonder if they regretted saying that if you choose to let them die? :)))))

  • goooooo banana!

  • I normaly play Paragon but thought I would make a renegade character. I decided though that the council should live since you dont even get to see the all human council in me2 -.- Also Udina shouldn't be a renegade options imo, lets not forget he betrayed you while Anderson was the only one that believed you. Do you think a renegade character would pick Udina after what he did?

  • Just a warning: saving the Council in ME2 will make you a more liked person, but you're really gonna wish you let them die in the first.

  • what kind of emo girl are you in that game

  • i let that mofo council die they annoyed me the hole game :))

  • @vanrok you are totally right...I mean, they were a bunch of jackasses through out all the game so Fu*k them

  • @vanrok its worth keeping them alive till the second game belive me. that time u annoy them the whole time

  • @vanrok u just made ur life harder in ME3 lol

  • @vanrok Damn Straight my friend and i put Anderson as leader of the council

  • @vanrok I saved the council. The other species didn't have a good opinion of us. They thought we were greedy, ruthless and only cared about ourselves. Watching humans, us, give our lives to save the other races, despite everything they think about us, it was pretty moving.

  • how does choosing the council affect me2?

    and how does it affect it you choose to let them die?

  • Affects the storyline, and even some characters. For instance, in ME 2 at the citadel, a turian that sells weapon upgrades is not racist anymore if you let the council live.

  • shepard explained his actions in me2. **minor spoilers**

    Shepard explained that he has indeed saved more lives by saving the council. I had no idea the Ascension held so many people. Of course the council are still a bunch of asswipes (except Anderson), but it appears my decision to save them was justified.

  • HUMANITAY!!!

    OOO RAH

  • ive always loved how after Hackett says "give it everything weve got" the missile that comes out of that warship is bigger then the actual cannon it was fired from

  • I chose to focus on Sovereign, I figured the safety of the galaxy is more important than the council, besides, they hated me. I went almost pure Paragon so I think they won't replace the council with all human candidates, I heard that happens if you are pure renagade

  • is humanity now the most powerful and advanced race now in the Citadel at the end of mass effect??

  • No it's the PC with max graphics it looks shit because of the video quality.

  • @Rickder19

    idiot -.-

  • @Rickder19

    Ohh, you so scandalous.

  • @Rickder19 xbox graphics dont suck, theyre better than PC because it doesnt give that empty crap look, it fills in lighting better, and it gives better quality all around

  • I ususally go with this ending or the "focus on sovereign" option, killing the council for personal/human gain is just... cruel. I'll do it for a pure renegade shepard though, for "fun"

  • Ha, your femshep looks exactly like mine.

  • hey, why cant i save the ending? every time after i beat the game, it just says "saving" then when i replay i'm just at the last part of the last mission again!

    please help! i'm afraid that mass effect 2 will suck for me because i cant save!

  • Because that's not an actual game save, its a save that shows you've completed the game and all the choices you've made etc etc. That is the save that ME2 will be going off of.

  • @Sroloz daamn that sucks, so i cant go back to the normandy and explore diffrent planets, etc. etc.?

    arghhh

  • After the final fight? No. If you want to go explore planets you have to do that before you go to Ilos. If you have missions etc from The Citadel you need to do those before you head to Virmire that way you can complete them.

  • @Sroloz i hope they change that on mass effect 2, i'd really like to explore planets aftewawrds

  • Well according to the FAQ, you can continue playing the game in ME2 after the credit IF your Shepard survived the final encounter. If not, you won't play him in ME3 (this may change in the future)

  • @walkerk19

    i never knew there was an ending where shepard could die

  • I really don't believe there's anything to worry about. It always does that but I'm sure your save will carry over to mass effect 2 as long as you beat mass effect 1

  • @Lookingforfourfor You have to go to New Game and there's a choice to pick an old profile (I can't recall the exact phrase at the moment). From there, choose your old character.

  • ohhh cool! for PC right?

  • What an epic game.

  • can you free play after you beat the game cuz i just beat it 5 minutes ago

  • The text made it seem to me like it was either saving the council OR destroying sovereign. Now I know both endings are basically the same, I'd rather save the council. They were doing a fine job, and an all-human set of leaders didn't seem like a good idea to me.. ah well. Fun game :).

  • i picked wait to destroy the sovereign thinking the council would survive. bib mistake

  • @Rc1290Dreadnought

    Thats the same reason I picked to kill the council (and on my good guy).

  • @Rc1290Dreadnought I know....an all human set of leaders will be biased against other races...probably to the point where other races will rebel and despise humans even more.

  • Actually, the old council was biased towards humanity. They treated them like utter shit. When the choice was to either save the council and make the job of saving the galaxy harder or not save the council and making the job easier arised, the only logical choice would be to save the galaxy easier. Humans would have been despised even if they would've been granted a permanent council seat.

    By seizing control they assured humanity's future.

  • Now at first, everything's probably going to be like utter shit (everytime a new power arises and tries to govern over smaller powers, this issue arises) but in time, everything will stabilize and an era peace under human rule will occur.

  • which is exactly what our governmenr is right now. Peaceful? I think not. The council is actualy favoring humans amongst other species besides their own of course. The volus, turians, and other speicies already dislike the idea of humans moving so fast up to lead them...what do you think will happen when suddenly humans are top-dog...civil war maybe?

  • "which is exactly what our governmenr is right now. Peaceful?"

    Because the a council made only of aliens that was racist against humans was totally better.

    Actually, they're trying to bring humans in line with other aliens. You know, before a human council everything was shit for them.

    A bad period whilst everything stabilizes then a peace period. That's it.

  • i dont see peace both ways, but i diverse council sounds much better than a human one. Unity through diversity as they say.

  • The problem with a diverse council is that humans would still be discriminated against. The only way they could actually be respected is if they actually ruled and managed to bring the alien races into a new age of peace.

    There's certainly going to be a shortage of peace after seeing the ending of Mass Effect 2...

  • people rearly pick that other dude. i only rember his as butt head cause hes always so aynoing.

  • interesting...my shepard character looked just the same o.o

  • It was an easy decision for me, current council dies, humans take over the council. They acted like idiots the entire game anyway.

  • same way i thought, in the 4 times i passed the game i never saved the council,

  • Screw the Council!!! Shepard for President!!

    I heard that Joker dies in the second one- I hope it isn't true!!!

  • Its big possibility be cause in trailers you can see normandy almost destroyed and its almost impossible to joker to escape from it with his legs.

  • Thats mean,

    dont you think he might have an escape pod attached to his seat or sumthing?

  • thats depend on you

  • Screw that ending ! ^^

    Let the Xenos die, go for the renegade path and let them all die, so you can start building up your terran empire in ME2, lulz ! xD

  • Seth Green owned the FUCK out of that reaper.

  • @metelmanJames Seth green is a fucking bad ass! no matter what i see him on, Austin Powers, Robot Chicken, Buffy the vamp slayer, this game XD

  • @metelmanJames yeah shepard killed saren

    JOKER KILLED A FUCKING REAPER!

  • I chose to focus on Sovereign, it's gonna be cool seeing Anderson on the Council in ME2, since they said your choices were carrying over.

  • I saved them to show that despite all that happened, we were still willing to make sacrifices.

  • i told my men to focus on soverign, i warned the council about the reapers and they wouldn't listen. so screw them.

  • It's cute when Shepard appears from the wreckage and heads down to her team. And you can see Tali pat Liara on the shoulder when Shepard appears. I never noticed them do that before.

  • I like playing the good guy proving that the dominate species can be unselfish compared to those council bastards.

  • I had Liara on my team constantly and i wuld hav died alot more without her.

  • Really? Cuz there's probably dozens of females who'd knock you out for that comment.

  • Tell that to Ash. According to Mass Effect, in the future, people like you don't exist.

  • sry udina but u didnt make the team

  • I let the coucil lived, yeah, yeah, I know two of them are assholes, but compared to having an all human council, I would prefer the lesser of two evils. After what kind of people runs politics so far, I can't really trust ourselves to be a fairer council, especially if they are like that douchbag, Undina X3. No thanks :P

  • very good reasoning there man, i always choose a renegade ending with the Council surviving, because that way you prove that despite your ruthless actions, Shepard demonstrates that he believes that all alien races must stand united against the Reapers

  • I love saving the Council as a renegade Shepard. Hearing the Council aplogise profusely for misjudging Shep is wonderful!

  • it's evil >=)

  • I always go pro human and let the council die. They were always pricks to me anyways.

    I wonder if this means that in ME 2 my game is going to be without any alien council members.

  • There will be good odds that's going to happen, your probably going to have an all human council... Wonder how that will affect interactions with other species in your game

  • nah it isnt u can go with undina are just have a human chairman and all other races on other side of the council so basically humans make the choices others races provide support and u can probly choose witch races u want to join the council

  • hahaha how odd you've got the exact same squad mates as me!

  • no matter how many times I see this scene it's always the most epic thing ever.

  • i let council die they only thought of three species not all

  • Shepard is a goth chick. :p

  • I don't know why, but I played through the whole game as an Engineer. Kicked some ass with only a pistol. That, and having Wrex and Garrus with me the whole time helped quite a bit, too.

  • When I first played this I thought "well if I focus on the sovereign, I'm not killing the council members, but I'm not abandoning the troops. everything is going to be ok!"

    *council members die in a sad cutscene*

    *sad face*

  • Udina is fussy that he didn't get picked.

  • In my first playthrough i had wrex and garrus whit me throughout the whole game never changed

  • a freaking WOMEN SHEPHARD:D

  • fail, the male Shepard is too bad ass for there to be male and female picks. XD

  • human wrong word to use

  • Humanity? Humans? Whatever.

  • Did you guys save or not save the council? Why or why not?

    I saved it just because I thought if I didn't I would just be proving to them us humans were assholes.

  • same as you - and that they are people and don't deserve to die.

  • i not save the council and i have points of rebel

    if you save them you will have like 21 em the other thing that make you a good coommander jajaa (sorry my english)

  • I saved the Council also. I figured that a reform in government would have too many repercussions in the next game. May be casting too wide a net. Haha.

  • That makes good sense, I really hope Shepherd isn't dead..

  • Same. I really have grown attached to him. I cannot wait for ME2. I have a question, how will the decisions cross over from one game to the next?

  • Dont delete your save file on the one you want to use. The new game will upload your game file and as such the desicions.

  • How clever. What type of player were you?

  • I was a biotic, but then it seemed to hard (I was an idiot and din't know about upgrade points...) so I restarted as a soldier.

  • I played through as a soldier also. Guns are fun + I had Liara on my team a lot of the time. She balanced the equation quite well.

  • same u grown attached to :D

  • i saved their ass also

  • sexist

  • i like how the ship "somehow" crashes right where she is..wouldnt it crash like up some guys house or kill that udina person..

  • Why did Soverign fall backward when its shields went down?

  • Oops made a typo.

  • I love the paragon ending in Mass Effect. A united force of all races against those pansy ass reapers. In Mass Effect 2 the Reapers won't now what hit them.

  • Yea, I screw them every time, too. I think I saved them like... once. That'll teach them to doubt me again.

  • i sacrificed the council :P

  • Where did Shepard find time to put on make-up?

  • Best storyline to a game for a long, long time (only KOTOR and Baldurs Gate 2 I think are etter) coupled with a great soundtrack and excellent cutscenes. Shame we're going to have to wait such a long time for a sequal.

  • The ending is so weird. Shepherd just says "i'm gona find some way to stop" and than just leaves like she has to go to the bathroom or something

  • idiot she said "I'm gonna find some way to stop them" your hearing is crap

  • Mine Shep was a man, with red hair and same coloured beard, with a scar on his right eye.... He is a Paragon of all, saver of the Council... I choose Liara as "mate" and Capt. Anderson to be the Council Member.

  • heh you picked the same teammates I did and almost the same looks, only change is the hair color which was black on mine

  • haha nice one. Funny enough I was tore between red and black.

  • Thanks for putting this up.

  • Quick question, Wheres shepard?

  • The chick with the red hair is "Jane" Shepard

  • love the ending music. very epic.

  • When the ship zooms away and I hear the beginning of that song it sends chills down my spine to how epic it is.
