Shepard is Meeeeelting - Mass Effect Glitch

My husband is currently on a mission to replay all the Mass Effect games and DLC in order. Fun stuff. Until, that is, we came across the Terrifying Mass Effect Glitch From Hell.

At first, Matriarch Benezia knocks Shepard down with her biotic powers. We laughed as he just lay there, watching Liara and Tali do all the work. We thought this was the extent of this particular glitch. But then... then we started to notice that Shepard was looking a little odd. Trying to push himself into one of those back-breaking poses that female superheroes do? Or perhaps slowly melting into a little puddle on the floor...


And then stretching...


And stretching...


And stretching...


And... oh god! :-(


What is this? The true, horrifying result of synthesis? Some new alien lifeform emerging, and using Shepard as a host? Proof that you don't mess with the asari?

Whatever it is, I'm not sure I can ever look at my husband's Shep in the same way again.

    1. We were laughing so hard! :-D And it just didn't stop. Shepard was stretched almost across the entire room before we stopped giggling and restarted the xbox.

  2. When game is this ? I can't tell.. looks like Mass Effect 1. I ran into a glitch in the 2nd one .. I got stuck in the ceiling. It sucked because I had to restart the system. BOO!

    1. Yes, it's Mass Effect 1, at the bit where you fight Liara's mother. :-) Aww, that's a pain! Glitches that freeze the game are just annoying most of the time.

    2. My PS3 always seem to freeze. The damn thing (I know Mass Effect isn't on PS3 but this made me think of that stupid PS3!!) :)
