BioWare says Mass Effect 3 contains a lot the 'magic' that makes the series special. Oh, and "epic moments" as well.
Speaking in the latest PSM3 magazine, which includes loads of Mass Effect 3 information, exec producer Casey Hudson discussed how he's gone about approaching the third and final game in the trilogy.
"There's a lot of this in Mass Effect 3. The whole game is filled with really epic moments, but I think the story will really start to hit home when players start realising things about Shepard's personal life, through sacrifice on a galactic scale."
Yesterday loads of new gameplay details emerged for the third game, including word on Shepard's new SWAT moves and destructible enemy armour.
Hudson told PSM3 BioWare already knows how the series will end - and it's going to be "spectacular".
"We know how we want it to end and we've already established what makes the series special," he said.

I cannot wait to get my hands on this game, but at the same time I don't want the series to end!!
With luck, its going to be an epic story with a personal touch. I'm really looking forward to seeing how my decisions affect the story. Hoping to not see too many new characters as its the final game in the series (plus my entire team survived ME2).
I'm kinda worried about him saying he knows how he wants it to end though. I thought there would be multiple endings, depending on how you've played through the game or the trilogy in my case. I hope its still the case because I''ve got plenty of different characters I want to play through with but I don't really want them to end up in the same way.
Fingers crossed

I'd guess that Cerberus are now working for the Reapers. With no options against them, nobody on their side, a twisted asshole in charge and the Reapers upon them. I'm guessing the Reapers went with a sort of - give us Shephard, or kill him, and we'll spare you/use you well.

"Magic" moments with Miranda they mean.

That flies in the face of the core values and objectives of Cerberus. Thus highly unlikely. The one thing you can count on Cerberus to do is NOT to side with an alien faction hostile towards humanity...unless Cerberus thinks it can control the Reapers. However, The Illusive Man is no fool and is unlikely to try to two-time the Reapers unless he knows something others don't regarding the Reapers.
