Cool, I hope it's as good as Shadow Broker and Overlord were.
Ditto. I'll definitely pick it up.
I just hope and pray ME THREE doesn't suffer from DA2 Syndrome. But seeing as how it's only getting ~ 20 months of development time, I'm not exactly filled with confidence.

Loved ME1 and ME2, didn't like DA1, but love DA2. If anything DA2 is more like the Mass Effects in terms of a good blend of action, tactics and pacing, so I highly doubt ME3 is all of a sudden going to suck (by your terms). Plus if some of the DLC has been good up to this point, there's really no need to be pessimistic about ME3.
ME2 was in development for 36 months. ME3 will have just about 20 months. That's not promising.
Otoh, if they just reuse the same engine and gameplay mechanics, they can definitely build enough content for ME3. So I'm hoping that's the case.
All they really need to do is kill that fucking planet scanning.
