technically, I don't think they could return any of the characters as playable characters, because they pride themselves on continuity, they need to write each character's death or survival into ME3. Shepard doesn't have that problem as dead shepards can't be transfered, but everyone else can be left dead at the end of ME3.. you're only guaranteed to have 2 team mates alive (any less then that and shepard dies).. and who they are is based on your actions, so yeah, everyone could be dead at the end of ME2.

And they'll write "alive/dead" into the system for all of them.

The only "returning characters" that can still return is Liara or Ashley/Kaiden. It would be possible for them to have Ashley or Kaiden join your group depending on which one survived, and Liara still hasn't had a chance to die, so she's a possible recruit for ME3. Everyone else could be canonically dead in ME3, so I don't see how any of them could be written into the game. Although having Ashley/Kaiden in your party depending on which of them survived in ME1 would actually be pretty nifty.
Thought thief!

But yeah, pretty much what he says. Whether or not I want to have a party made up of "Mass Effect 2 Characters: The Best of" it's probably not going to happen.

I want Kaidan!
Yes I know he isn't part of your poll and yes, I know I am being petulant and maybe unnecessarily difficult about this but dammit, don't give me a carpet only to swipe it from under me BioWare................. ¬_¬
Oh and I predict someone will quote me just to say ''Haha, Kaidan, I couldn't nuke that dude fast enough, whiny Carth wannabe, blah blah blah blahbeurghaaaarghhhhhhhhhhhh''!
In 10, 9, 8...................
But I don't care if some people don't like him, I do, so there!
(I think I must have PMT or something, sorry.
) I am just feeling cynical and cross atm, normal service will be resumed shortly. WHEN THEY GIVE US OUR DAMN KAIDAN BACK!!!
Of the new characters - Mordin or Legion.
He'll come back. They've teased us too long for them to change their minds now. Besides, they don't want the Socialware forums to spontaneously combust, which would happen if they denied us this closure. ;)

Tali and Garrus,choose Tali because I didn't have multiple options in the poll.

I also choose her over Garrus,because I romanced her in ME2

Those 2 characters were the only ones that made it through in ME2 and it is most likely(and I hope) they will be in ME3 as well.

Tali and Garrus are the only ones I care about. The rest could go die in a fire for all I care.

That would mean ME3 would be yet another game where you have to recruit a team and then complete your mission. Its been done in the first two and despite my love for the first two I dont know if I could handle another set of all new characters.

I'v always thought that any me2 squadmates in me3 will have minor/ replaceable parts (like wrex's death/ survival in me2) because any of them could die.
That being said, I really like Jack.
Just saying.

Legion, Tali and Kelly. Yes I know she wasn't a member of the squad but she was a romance option (sort of) so why not have her as a proper romance option in ME3?

Legion, just yer basic robot but you can't deny "Sherperd-Commander"

Tali, What's under her mask? she's like a female version of the Stig or the Doom Marine.

I want Wrex back. Seeing as I kept all of them alive, I don't have to worry about not having any of them, but I really want Wrex back.

I like the ensemble cast of ME2, except Miranda and Jacob.. So I can't really pick just one of them, so I won't vote. And I want Wrex back!

Tali, Garrus, Mordin, Legion and Thane. Those are the people from ME2 I'd like to have available for my team in ME3. (Thane could go)

Really want Legion and Garrus back. Voted for Legion though.

I loved Thane. But I can accept if he doesnt return. Wasn't he terminally ill at the end of 2?

I went with Garrus, though Tali is a very VERY close second.
Thane would be 3rd
Mordin 4th
Legion 5th
Grunt 6th
Miranda 7th
Jacob 8th
Jack 9th
Samara 10th
Zaeed and Kasumi on a shared 11th.
