The first time I heard this in the final battle, I was afraid I was really going to lose. I mean, Sovreign was so powerful, and the Alliance was being ripped to shreds, and even as that massive fight raged behind, you had to find an undead Saren. Truly epic.
This was the perfect setting and music for the final boss. Sovereign is uplinked to the citadel, the Alliance cannot destroy him on time, and he is this close to calling over the rest of the reapers. The only thing that's between his call and the arrival of the Reapers is you and you have to do whatever it takes to stop him. This music gave a sense of urgency and it was chilling. I loved ME1, ME2 didn't have that same effect on me.
@Ruffy112 Only one month, 30 days from now, you must be stoked hearing this considering you thought it was two months. I was scared shitless when I saw your comment, I thought it really was gonna be two months.
this music i hear in last boss fight against in metroid style i am dark samus and this planet is mine dont get me wrong this music so epic mass effect is epic than metroid and halo combined
@962acgqz68 I don't think it's bullshit. First time I played the fight (just a few hours ago, actually) I defeated him in probably less than a minute and a half (not including the interrupting cutscene of course) with only a couple gun overheats, and I never use cover anyway, I just run around really fast. So if a fairly inexperienced player like me can do that, I think an experienced player can easily do what ElectricWinds says he did.
@OceansLost Mate don't want to kill your buzz but... he blew his own brains out, then he shed his organic side and after i killed his ass he went an incinerated himself and turned to dust, he's fucking dead man.
Hey everybody! I have released my new album 'Progenitor' which has electronic music inspired by great games such as Mass Effect. You can check it out and download it for free on my youtube channel if you're interested!
@HirumaYoruGaming Couldnt agree with that more mass effect 1 music is memorable but ME 2 music are complete epics these are song that are among the top quality of video game soundtracks even movies for that better.
@Battle5tarRJC Whoever wrote every line for Sovereign is cool. Perhaps that absolute best speech in any video game. Honestly can't think of a single one that comes close.
*pew* Well, that final battle was a bit anticlimactic, i mean i could skip it with a high enough check for god's sake. Oh well, time for the en-*Saren's corpse starts SCREAMING AS ITS SKIN BURNS OFF TO REVEAL A MECHA SKELETON*
"I, AM SOVEREIGN. AND THIS STATION, IS
MINE."
...I shall now REPENT MY FREAKING SINS. *is killed in seconds*
But seriously, Sovereign's opening line and this music blasting is pretty much OH GOD I'M FUCKED incarnate.
There coming closer and closer and so far nobody has stopped them.
If Commander Shepard doesn't come soon there wont be an Earth left to save in the year 2012.
This soundtrack should be playing when the year 2012 comes round. I'm not saying its going to happen but this music should be played out loud through out the year.lmao.
The best part about this song is that it's a remix of Sovereign's theme, yes; but it has tones from Saren's Theme layered on top of it. That mix pretty much expresses what the final boss is.
The final Battle in ME2 (including this reaper-baby-thing) wasnt so overwhelming like seeing the sovereign taking over the citadel... especially after the dialog with it (him, her or whatever it is)
LOL, CoD fanboy, you can't even spell Shepard's name you fucking, worthless, religious cunt. Go smash your filthy, superstitious head open and spew out what little brain you have you pathetic piece of dogshit.
@MrOpenGamer I just went to your profile page and checked your recent comments. All I've seen is you degrading people, demanding them to smash their heads open.
This was never about me. This is about you trying to elevate yourself by putting other people down. You should be ashamed of yourself.
If you reply this with more demands and insults, you are just degrading yourself by proving all of this.
I was putting down bigots who were giving religious people a bad name (since most of them probably were). Why the fuck would you come onto a Mass Effect video (and shit on it) if you don't even like the game?
@MrOpenGamer Clearly you haven't seen how many hours on Steam I've spent playing this game. Understandable though since you don't have a link to my profile. If I didn't like this game, I wouldn't have played it for 67 hours.
Also, lets end this conversation before people are driven off from these boards. You can say whatever you want, but don't expect a response. I've already proven my point (stated last comment).
Funny, I've spent over 200 hours on ME. Coming to think of it though, there's no proof either way. But if you have been playing a game for that long whilst staring a the protagonist's name for half of it and still can't even spell it, you must be lying.
@MrOpenGamer To be honest, I have my doubts. Those that may have died would have greatly reduced roles unless you romanced them. Look at Wrex. He may have been important to Urdnot in ME2, if he survived ME that is, but he barely does anything that impacts your mission except for giving directions.
Hopefully ME3 will have your desicions have more impact in the game. If you think of it, every character (except Liara) you could have in your party could die within the first two games. That would mean that no-one would have any real roles in the game. Obviously I doubt that BioWare would do that.
"Yay, this is pretty (Geth falls from Sniper shot) easy so far! I'm sure (Destroyer killed with Shotgun) it'll stay like this. What could (Rocket trooper flies of map thanks to biotics) possibly go wrong? (Juggernaut is mauled by assault rifle round to face)"
*Geth army marches in, dropship appears*
"I had (Garrus gunned down) to say (Liara dies) that, didn't I?" (Shepard killed by giant geth turret missile to face)
This was my favorite part of the game. I had huge health and damage,and I could just rush at the geth and they would die before I could get within melee range. One of the rare parts of the game where I could just CHAAARGE and not die. Awesomeness :D
@andyllamanipl I think the Reapers are a near perfect enemy, because they are completely impossible to reason with. Rather like the Joker in The Dark Knight.
