I thought this was pretty cool, I don't really like the song choice but still it was pretty neat.
It also confirms that there are no current plans for Mass Effect 4. As further down they state that the Mass effect project leads are starting work on a new "single" game with an entirely new universe and new game technology. That doesn't mean that ME4 won't ever happen but it doesn't sound like they have any current plans to start development of it.
At least not with all the same people.

I hope there is an exception to this rule. I expect compensation for my effort lol.

Just because she could have the biological DNA of Shepard due to some fun time up in Shepards Lair it does not mean that the children (assuming she will have them) will be like Shepard. Its not genetic, those features are learned throughout life not genetic.

Oh snap,

They really can't develop two games at once and have realistic goals and release schedules for both. It is possible but it is a lot of strain on developers and resources to do two things at once. It also seems silly to have them devout time towards a new game with a different IP and systems while having them develop a Mass Effect 4.• BRAND NEW GAMES FROM BIOWARE – Both Dragon Age and Mass Effect started as single games but grew into vast universes. But we aren’t stopping there. While Casey continues to oversee the development of our new Mass Effect project, he and his leads are putting together their vision for an all new game set in a fictional universe, built from the bottom-up with all new gaming technology.
Eventually something has to give. Mass Effect 4, or the new game. It doesn't sound like Mass Effect 4 will be any time soon since from the blog post asks for idea so stuff is still in a "what should we do phase".

The thing is, they've been "upgrading" the Montreal studio over the past 6 months or so, with the most interesting posting being a Mass Effect lead writer position. So instead of being merely a branch of Edmonton, they're turning it into a standalone development studio. It's probably gonna be Montreal who're gonna be doing the majority of work on the next ME, while Edmonton starts focusing on the new IP.
New MP weekend, new weapon, and an updated stat chart!

I wonder if "for the alliance" is a warcraft spoof. Apparently nobody likes batarians either.
Those are Batarians after Earth got launched though. It is not surprising considering how much gametime the various N7 classes must have gotten.
