I picked Miranda. It just seems like the developers put a ton of time and effort into making her character a little more complex than your standard gaming fare.

Although, if I had to choose now, I would pick Jack. She is much more complex and seems like the end result would be well worth the work that you had to put in to get her to trust you.

If you have not seen the clip for romancing her, I high recommend doing so. Quite frankly I believe it is one of the best moments in the game from a character development stand point. They make you genuinely interested in Jack and her life, or rather that was my approach when having seen her romance. Miranda I like however my concern is she will remain snobbish afterward when exploring her insecurities about being perfect would be far more intriguing.

ETA: I'm also planning on doing another run from 1 to 2 with no romance in the first...
I never really thought about doing that. Its a good idea, and hopefully they will address it in ME3.

-30G Space Loner. "Really? You couldn't find time to romance even a fictional girl?"

I think this may just be the single most coherent post here. Congratulations good sir, you have turned the simple fact of a favor being performed by a fellow crewmate into a sexual innuendo.

Great job. I commend you.

Sorry, folks, but I like to think I was raised right; when I played, Shepard passed that alien ass over and spent some 'quality time' with his picture of Ashley.

Of course, in my next playthrough, Lando had sweet Bloodsucker sex with Tali.

I had intended to stay faithful to Liara from the first game, but ended up courting Jack and Tali and after I got the same dialogue from Jack after every mission I thought that our chance was over(when apparently it wasnt) and just decided to go with Tali. Jack wasn't too crazy about me after I broke it off with her.

Anyone but Jacob.

Seriously, does anyone likes Jacob ? personality-wise or even gameplay-wise, he sucks so hard...

He's been nicknamed Jacob the Janitor on my Normandy.

I spit my soda all over my screen when I read this. Luckily my comp is ok, and the cleanup was totally worth it. Haven't laughed so hard in awhile, and funniest thing ive read all week

I can't stand Tali-- i thought she was unbelievably annoying and THAT voice.

Miranda on the other hand...straight up sex kitten. Plus those daddy issues made it all too easy...too much, my bad guys.

I didn't do anyone, my Shepard's heart still belongs to Ashley Williams. True they are a galaxy and two years apart but the message that she sent after the Horizon encounter gave him hope enough that he can be with her again. So I turned down the others and stayed the course and held out my hope for my Military Gal to return to me in Mass Effect 3.

That said, if I had been going to pick one, it would have been Jack. Because I initially didn't like her but then I see her romance scene on youtube and I was moved. She was the only one of the romances for a male where there seemed to be more than just 'sex' on the mind.

But still she still only gets the silver and as far as I'm concerned the scene where Shepard gazed at Ashley's picture had more emotion than any of the others. So I stuck with Ashley.

I chose Miranda. My supporting evidence, your honor.


And Miranda was a pretty cool lady and I love Australian accents.

Sigh... I'll admit it, I'm a Talimancer. Though when I eventually get around to another playthrough, I shall be giving Jack a little more than a passing glance.

Plus she's got those badass boots. Seriously, I want those.

I forgot that she was based off a real person. I wonder if that means that one day she will accidentally be called Miranda... that could lead to some interesting problems.
