"I'M GARRUS VAKARIAN AND THIS IS NOW MY FAVORITE SPOT ON THE CITADEL"
This was my favourite part of the whole game and kudos to the writer at Bioware who, for the first time ever, made me genuinly care for a videogame character.

OT: Of course I missed!

Nope, didn't miss. Garrus would be so disappointed if he found out that I was going easy on him.

So bottle went boom.
That was exactly my line of thought. I respect Garrus, as does my canon Shep, way too much to miss on purpose for him.

Have you seen the text you get from Garrus via the data pad when you miss?

"Let me know if you ever want a rematch somewhere less windy. Those tornadoes on the Citadel are brutal."

Some of the texts are fairly bland, but there are some real winners in there. =)

I missed the shot because I have always felt bad for Garrus. Through all three games he gets the short end of the stick, so I decided to give him a break and miss the shot.

Totally agree.

I always felt throughout the three games that Garrus had the best writing and VA - closely followed by Wrex.

Totally missed the shot btw - my FemShep knew that Garrus needed perking up more than she did.
He had the dumbest AI in ME2 thought maybe that was just me but every time I brought him along he would just stand up and die. It's not like he was getting flanked or anything he would just stand up and not get back behind cover. Like I said maybe it was just my copy of ME2 or something but after that I just brought Grunt or Legion instead.

I just did that with my femShep romance of Garrus and I missed the shot. Hey it WAS windy after all...I actually had a save right before that scene and I've kept the save so I think I'm going to do it again just because it was fun. In fact, I may just keep a seperate save to just before it and do it a dozen times, whenever the mood strikes me to see it again.

Haha I initially thought this was going to be about not romancing him in the second one and not being able to in the third. On THAT topic I made a mistake when trying to romance him in the second, and was heartbroken when I found him with Tali in the third. Sad day...

Anyways, I didn't miss. I'm not sure why I decided to shoot it... frustration about the previously addressed topic, I suppose.

I was on a Fembromantic date with him.
I hit the shot because i assumed we'd keep going and something funny would happen, i didn't think it would stop there. But he took it with pride so i gotta respect that.

Missed the shot, knew it would make him happy.
I wish that it was actually on me to try to shoot the bottles, then I would have lost just because I fail at sniping. Then he could be happy about winning, and I wouldn't have to feel like a dick for letting him win and sorta kinda lying.

Nah, I hit the bottle. I respect my turian buddy way too much to go easy on him.

I'm on my second playthrough now, so I'll probably miss the shot this time around for the sake of the dialogue.

I made the shot. My Shepard never misses and she knows it would take more than being able to shoot a can out of the air to get our Garrus down. Plus, while Shepard may have been able to shoot the can, Garrus could have shot the bullet out of the sky if he wanted to.

There you go Bioware, a free DLC idea. Include a scene where Garrus shoots an incoming sniper round out of midair. Totally ridiculous of course, but still...

Yes, he's my Shep's love interest and she had just told him she loved him, I wasn't about to ruin the mood!

I thought I'd let Garrus think he was better than me at at least ONE thing :p
Calibrations do NOT count

There is another reason to miss--so your character isn't a total Mary Sue.
OP: My Shepard missed, but not on purpose. He just isn't as good a shot as Garrus.

Yeah I missed it.

The writing in the Mass Effect series, the third in particular really made Garrus feel like a best friend.

I couldn't help but smile as he had his little celebration.
