You can, but Bioware said there will be "consequences" for "cheating".
In fact I have one ME2 profile saved for this very reason between Ash and Miranda. I will enjoy the ensuing catfight =D
Some basic stuff. It seems that it's the exact same options you had for ME2 with the config utility.

When's the review embargo? Does anyone know?

I cheated. Ash pretty much told Shep to fuck off, and Miranda was there for him.
Or, more correctly, she was willing to shag and had a body genetically engineered for perfection.
I just bought the second Mass Effect, (I recently beat the first one) and I had some questions:
In the first game I played a FemShep and romanced Liara. At the start of the second game, carrying my save over I can choose female or male shepherd. I know you can't same sex romance in ME2, so if I pick a male and romance say Miranda, can I switch back to FemShep in ME3 and see the resulting actions from both relationships?
Also, I really love Jennifer Hale as FemShep VO, so if I decide to keep that in ME2, and I obviously can't romance a female NPC, I have no interest in the male characters for my Shepherd. Can I just skip all romances and pick up the Liara one in ME3 as a FemShep?

Haven't been playing the MP demo in a good while because I wanted to finish another ME2 playthrough, and after probably 50 or more Vet packs I FINALLY got the Widow. Fuck yeah.
Works perfect with the Human Infiltrator with everything maxed for snipe rifle damage, and on top of that, I experimented having the Claymore AND the Widow on my level 18 Krogan, and he's the complete package, even on Silver now. Far, up close, I obliterate everything. I still have to see how I'd fare on Gold, but Silver is nothing to me now, and I was on top of the scoreboard with that setup too. Love it.

Those would be different save files. You can import your Femshep from ME1 who romanced Liara and play ME2 with her or create a new shepard with new decisions and love interests.
Essentially you would have a Jane shepard save file from ME1 and a John shepard save from ME2 if you went male...
Am I making sense?

Er... as far as i know, if you carry your Shepard from one ME game to another, you can't change sex. Unless i got it all wrong?
That's a perfectly good line of dialogue. It doesn't sound cheesy, nor is it nonsensical. Quite simply- if you're not willing to risk your life in a proactive and offensive way, then the Reaper's victory is inevitable.
I'll grant you that it's context dependent, though. The trailer probably wasn't the best place for it.

I know there's been a ton of stuff about Cerberus in the books and comics do they ever explain why the Illusive Man has crazy robot eyes. I mean they look a whole like Saren's eyes did are they just prosthetics?

It was illustrated/told in the comics
This better mean I get to see Tali's face.

...sorry to quote this so late, but how do I use the editor to convert the save to a 360 file? I can not figure it out.

Please, please let her look like this. The reaction would be delicious.
I'll give you mine now.
It's definitely cheesy, nearly all video game dialogue is, but it fits and isn't bad. What probably will be bad is Bioware's cheesy dialogue for the romance options. It's been eye roll inducing for the past two ME games, I don't imagine that it will be any different this time.

Please only take this as a joke. I was listening to the GB podcast with Casey Hudson, and something Hudson said about "we understand ME" made me remember think of this scene from seinfeld. I just had to do it.

Got my Origin pre-load going (damn Origin is crap...takes 2 minutes to start during which time my PC is completely frozen and I can do fuck all! Utter shite!). Anyway, for some reason the email I received says I can play on the 8th March yet the release schedule for the UK says 9th. One of them is wrong and I bet it's the email!

I might use this myself.
Went to check on my pre order for the CE at best buy today only to realize I accidentally ordered it for PS3. No wonder I got a CE so easily. If all my friends weren't getting it for 360 (and if I wasn't totally in love with the MP anyway) I would just go for it.
And as the only BB in my area that has the 360 version for in-store pickup is in a bad part of town on the back side of nowhere, I might break my usual rule and just have it shipped.

That creepy Tali scared the crap out of me! I'd smash my 360 on the ground midgame in horror if that's what she looks like.
And Seinfeld knows what's up. I just want to talk to Hanar, Elcor and Volus about their culture in HUB worlds for hours. Not pew pew pew on earth. I couldn't be more excited for ME3 though! That launch trailer lived up to my expectations!

This just gives me a file called "SaveExport.xbsav" regardless of what save I convert

Man, you can nitpick all you want, but this game is going to be such a breathtaking epic journey.
I don't know about hours, but I certainly need lots of stuff like that in my RPGs. There's no good reason why there can't be a healthy mixture of both world building and pew pew.

It would explain why he was so adamant about not having an DA2-style OT.
I hope you like it, Shingo.
And to add to this, I don't want that world building to be simple "Codex Entries". While it's an easy way to disseminate information, it is also lazy and boring.
