Actually, I believe, with the alliance being mainly space-based, that they would follow traditional Naval regulations. Under those regulations women can grow their hair long, but it has to be kept tight and tidy when on duty, as it is in ME1/2 (I forget how long her hair is, but it's in a tight fashion).
Now, if you'd have mentioned her hair style - which is loose and so against regulations - then I wouldn't have felt the need to be annoying and nitpick.
As for everything else: spot on. In my opinion EA just keep making mistake after mistake, but they stay in business because they've bought out and incorporated a lot of competitors in the past, and bought up and slapped their logo on some major names in more recent years (ala BioWare). If they just stuck to EA Games, they'd be bankrupt within a few years. But that's just my informed opinion I suppose.
As an off-topic side note, this post brings my post count up to 880, which is the exact same number of unread emails in my inbox right now.
Partially correct on the Alliance, but she's a Marine - since space combat is basically "big gun, boarding action, big gun, missile, boarding action, boarding action, boarding action," the Alliance Navy and Marines are tightly interwoven. The Marines are technically a branch of the Navy, but they are still very much separate services, as Marines focus exclusively on infantry/ground combat.
Honestly? I'm pretty sure she's gonna go straight back to being a racist so that as you ally with the other races, she defrosts and becomes sympathetic again.
Fair enough. I keep forgetting that she's a Marine and not just regular Alliance.
It'd be a shame if she went back to being frosty on aliens, because it'll feel like all of those conversations you had in the first game meant absolutely squat. Then again, two years (plus however much time there is between Horizon and meeting up again in ME3) is a lot time to fall back into old ways without someone like Shepard around to remind you everyone's equal.
There is a new set of figurines, in case anyone is upset over the DLC packaging thingy:
Link
I believe people are upset because the only way to get some DLC (even though they're only weapons/co-op only items) is to shell out $60 for figures, not that they'll get DLC if they buy it.
Never buy figurines of games never ever!
Not never. Just not when it's such an obvious marketing ploy.

Na cause I would end up breaking them. Always did when I was a kid. Marketing ploy or not. If I was into Figurines. I would probably buy them even if it was a ploy.
