Fresh Look at Mass Effect 2

(S)he's not dead, (s)he can't be.

Anyway, something interesting I've thought of before is what if in ME2 or ME3 the citadel races actually allies themselves with the geth (as in not all AI are inherently evil), and we get a geth as a team member, maybe some cool special geth with a personalty (a geth that isn't just cannon fodder).
Or if BioWare and EA decides to be very boring and choose that all geth are evil, maybe we capture one and Tali reprograms it to fight for us.
I'm really hoping for a scene setup similar to the rachni queen scene in the first game, but with geth instead.

Oh man do i want a geth ally! Would be so awesome.

Ummmmmmmmm... did'nt they try to destroy the Citadel by opening a giant hole throught space and time, unleashing a horde of over-powered giant spaceship robots?

Well didn't the Turians try to kill us at one point in the past? and haven't humanity tried to kill each other countless times before?

I'm just saying, the geth ain't necessarily evil, the reapers may be, but I'm not giving up on the geth just yet. There is still hope.

No, the Turians and us just accidently got into a war, but somehow, the Council got involved and managed to save our asses, despite the fact that technically, we really did'nt need saving or that we did, which was never really explained in game just exactly how desperate were we, and how the council stepped in.

But still, there's been the Human-turian conflict, the rachni wars, the krogan rebellion and probably a lot other wars fought over the centuries, not to mention any civil wars..
My point being that just because the geth have attacked us doesn't make them evil, they did after all, follow a reaper, who they believed to be their god incarnate.
Wouldn't it be so much more awesome to make the geth join our side now (as in ME2) and possibly make the rachni (depending on your actions in ME1) join us in ME3 for the big final fight against the reapers?
Than to just kill every race that doesn't share our opinions?

But its exactly for the reason(and because the Quarians severly mistreated them) that the Geth think the reapers are gods that they wont stop until organic life is wiped out, or fused with machine!

Well hopefully we can convince them otherwise. At least I hope a relatively peaceful solution can be achieved.
We'll need all the help we can get to beat those pesky reapers.
