Poll: Favourite Mass Effect Alien

[grimsprice]

Quarians.They're gear heads.I´m a gear head.Do the math.

Giant gypsy space fleet FTW.

 

[WickedSkin]

Quarians. True survivors, nomads, proud... Well being a nomad in space is just awesome. Engineers? Gear heads? Probably the best in the galaxy.

 

[BillyShakes]

Salarians are my favourite species because of the stated racial traits.
Also, Captain Kirrahe's speech was just amazing.

 

[WickedSkin]

While most of the Mass Effect alien races are highly original and well thought I think the Asari stand out the most. Having played Warhammer 40k alot though I couldn't help drawing similarities between the races of Mass Effect and those of 40k. The krogans are alot like orcs, the reapers like necrons, the rachni like tyranids. The Asari were for me the most original of the bunch.

What did you expect? Warhammer is awesome. If they rip 'em of wouldn't that mean Mass Effect would be awesome?

 

[WickedSkin]

I like the ones who start every sentence by saying what tone they're using due to their incredilby boring voices. They remind me of HK-47 from Kotor and who doesn't love the sociopathic droid. Buggered if I can remember what they're called though, so I voted for Volus.

You voted correctly, that's the Volus.

Wasn't that the Elcor?

Ya, it was the Elcor. The Volus were the short, round traders.

 

[The Infamous Scamola]

There is no one else I'd rather have covering my back than a Turian. they have Honour. a human might backstab you.

*cough*Saren*cough*

What? What was that? Anyway, I'd have to say... Turians definately. Just because.

 

[mechanixis]

First come Turians, just because I think they're the most intriguing and original alien design I've ever seen. As a force in the galaxy they seem like something that humanity could someday become, which is compelling.

Second is Salarians - I think out of all the races, the Salarians seem like the ones I would most want to hang out with.

 

[Vuljatar]

Turiens are awesomely badass, but the Asari are an entire race of hot bisexual women. So Asari are #1 in my book.

 

[Captain Pancake]

Saren.

'nuff said.

 

[ButanicXpandA]

I would have to say the elcor are my favourite, big, monotone and they have to say what kind of tone they are speaking in to make a statement, makes me laugh.

 

[Programmed_For_Damage]

Turiens. Garrus, Nihilus, Saren, need I say more? They are a no nonsense species, who are handy in battle.

 

[Chunko]

Asari gross me out, they have no ears, and they have an octopus thingy on the back of their heads.

 

[Avatar Roku]

My first thought was Quarian (in fact, that's how I voted) because I found Tali the only really relatable character, but on reflection, the Collectors. Read Ascension and/or watch the ME2 "Enemies" video on IGN to see what I'm talking about.

 

[the_maestro_sartori]

wow, there's alot less Asari fans out there than I was expecting

 

[SamuelT]

Of course I can appreciate the all-female race of the Asari, but as a favourite, I'll take the Salarians. They're the most 'traditional' looking aliens, and have the most awesome way of life.

About 4 hours of sleep and major-speed brain-usage the rest of the day.

OH SHI-

 

[SomeBritishDude]

Turians, hands down. They're the reason I was pissed you can't pick races in Mass Effect.

I also really like Salarians for some reason; I hope you can have one on your team this time round.

 

[Vrex360]

Krogans, partly because they are reptillian, partly because Wrex is ultimate awesome and partly because I can't help but feel sorry for them given that their once proud warrior culture has faded in the face of slow extinction.
Also Turians again because I'm pretty sure they are reptilian and because they have honor codes.
Also Asari.... this is mostly hormonal I'll admit but there is some good things they do as well, what with their biotics and stuff.

Oh what the hell, I really love all the races. I ain't no racist.
