... uhh, yeah, what were you really thinking BioWare? He looks like a bad baby faced space-a-fied Soap MacTavish. Don't get me wrong, I love Soap, but James here looks stupid.

So, what do you guys think?

I think he looks pretty good. It adds variety to the moltey crew of aliens I have seen. Another awesome looking human is always a plus for me. Compare him to udina or kaiden. Actual he reminds me of kinda without the tan and less of a strong jaw line. Better hair too.

Also I think that armor is to die for. Look at that detail, ooo and those gloves. What I wouldnt give to see a good action seen where he fist fights someone. Just to see in the armor in works actual. Hmmm I wonder what that added little eye tech does. Scan movement or enemy heat? God I want to know about more mass effect technology. Im goshing about tech in ME3 I have no idea about. This game will be grand and so will the character design. Wanna see my tali girl face.

What the hell, man?! Whatever happened to this guy? I liked that design. Now, as Soren Alenko said, he's just a "bad, baby-faced, space-a-fied Soap MacTavish". I hope they at least use the previous design for someone else. stare

From what I know, that was never going to be James Sanders/Vega. It's either Kai Leng (bad guy from Mass Effect book #3) or some other bad guy.

That's not what it said in the GI article. Where did you hear this?

GI never said that it was him. He's (Vega) mentioned in the article that he's a new character/squadie and that he serves as an introduction to players who are new to the series, and that's about all that was said about him.

They had that picture included in a segment of the article titled "James Sanders". If that wasn't supposed to be Sanders/Vega, why would they include that picture there? Did they think people wouldn't assume that that was an image of that character? And again, where are you getting your information?

The info box for Vega (then known as Sanders) is clearly separate from that guy.

NoLifeKing66, I thought that was him too so we both made the same mistake. What is important now is that Vega looks pretty cool to me now.

Wait wait wait....the link you just put up just now Alenko is the game informer article and not where you got the pick that started this thread. So what source are you getting the picture from the first post? Looks like a prank pic or a character from the outside universe of Mass Effect such as books and such. It also looks kinda photoshopped or something because the animation looks off as well.

Ah. I see now. That's good, I suppose. It means they'll still be using that concept, which I was quite fond of, for somebody else.

Since you mentioned it, I could see it as Kai Leng.

I wouldn't be surprised if that's Kai Leng.
Considering that (from what I've seen in the trailers) Cerberus is going after Shepard, the Illusive Man would send Kai Leng.

Sorry Sakura but that actually might be a chara, because if you look at the collectors edition (You know wich forum im talking about that has the picture) then you can see that pic listed on there under, exclusive ingame outfits, so according to that picture, that is indeed one of the characters in ME3 collectors edition, but that oufit or even that character might not be in the normal version of the game, well. . . inless you get a MOD or a DLC on your computer, sweatdrop hehehe.... i have a bunch of MODs for fallout3 on my comp sweatdrop but thats besides the point, the outfit is most likely not in the normle version of ME3 (for the console atleaset) but the face is most likely on one of the people you can get in your squad, stare if he is then bioware shouldnt have hired a baby face bombino fan for the character design
