Mass Effect 3 For the 360 Is Done... We Did The Destroy Ending

Good morning everyone,

Well last night's stream was epic, as we started at 5 PM Eastern in order to make sure we finished Mass Effect 3 which we did at about 10:30 PM Eastern... but we ended up extending the stream to mess around with the MultiPlayer and actually got an extra achievement, Unwavering. Now I have done 5 of the 6 multiplayer maps on Gold difficulty... problem was I didn't know which 5... but with lucky I got the last one needed for it! So woo-hoo!

In terms of the main campaign of Mass Effect 3, we opened with roaming around the Citadel doing all the character interactions related to the Shore Leave as well as throwing the epic party. Still love all little details like Wrex needing an ice-pack, Miranda and Jack's tension, the allegations that Shepard can't dance and so forth.

I was 'lucky' to get the 'Hijacker' achievement, because there were two mechs on the Cerberus base... first attempt resulted in me getting killed, 2nd attempt I thought it glitched when I tried to enter it... 3rd attempt saw Garrus blow up the mech... then I said to hell with... and saw there was a second mech a little further into the mission. Thankfully I was able to get the achievement on that one.   

With that achievement out of the way, it was pretty much business as usual, finish off Kai Leng and Ceberus, then the liberation of Earth from the reapers. I took Javik on those final two ground mission on Earth because it just seemed fitting, plus I did get a little kick about seeing him protest about leaving. 

Now why did I do the Destroy ending when I normally do the Synthesis ending. Well since I've been dedicating time to the Multiplayer... and really put in the effort on the Galaxy at War to have galatic readiness at 100%, basically it's just to show 'Shepard Lives'. Since this run of Mass Effect 3 was the 360 version, the requirements for Shepard living are much more difficult than the Legendary Edition

So what's left for me in Mass Effect 3 are two achievements... one is for getting 5,000 kills and we ended the night having a count of over 3700. I know if I start multiplayer maps on bronze, I can get 50 to 75 before someone joins or I get over whelmed. The other one involves finishing Mass Effect 3 on Insanity Difficulty... which I'm not too keen on attempting. Still don't be surprised if I do more Mass Effect 3 streams based around the multiplayer to get the kill count achievement.

Since I'm keeping track of everything Xfinity related, last night's stream did have one interruption at 822 PM, but it rebounded a lot faster than it was in recent months, but we did see some frame drops as well.

What's the difference between a dapper man on a bicycle and a poorly dressed man on a unicycle? Attire!

I left my job at a shoe disposal plant. It was sole destroying.
