    Mass Effect 3: It's not the endings, its the final battle (And synthesis)

    I don't necessarily disagree with you. The only reason, however, why they can be defeated conventionally is that they're tactically inept. You couldn't make the games any other way. Take their plan with the Keepers for example. Why send a signal to the Keepers instead of the Citadel itself...
