I felt that Mass Effect 3's high point in quality was on Mars, Palaven's moon and Tuchanka. I also enjoyed the missions with Jack and Samara. It's good to see the ME2 cast back, even if some of them got shafted, like Zaeed and to a lesser extent, Jacob.
To all that hated the ending, just keep some saves before the Collector Base and Earth. Then you're in a perpetual state of bliss and excitement!
I am interested in seeing how the Extended Cut plays out. I think a lot of people see the current ending as a bit of a shock and want some more explanation. I love multiplayer right now. It's a good mix of action and tactics that you don't get in some games. I admire the level of detail and humour in a lot of the dialogue. Particularly if you do things that people don't expect, like bring Thane and Grunt to the mission on Omega with the quarantine zone.
I love how modern games have the transmedia idea going on. For example, Grissom Academy, a location in Mass Effect 3 is a major plot point in some of the Mass Effect books, which I own. There's also the Datapad app which is quite fun and helps tie in the real world / virtual world interaction.
