If you neglected to take part in what rapidly become a tedious job when scanning planets for resources in Mass Effect 2, you'll have missed a gem of a comment or two from EDI, the Normandy's AI. As everyone knows, Uranus is already a funny planet name. Bioware knows this too, and if you head to Uranus and start scanning, upon launching your first probe Shep and EDI will strike up a conversation about the hilarity of doing so. When the probe launches, EDI will say 'Really Commander?' instead of her usual probe dialogue. Launching a second probe will then cause EDI to sigh and say 'Probing Uranus..' After this, scanning and probing Uranus returns to normal as if nothing whatsoever had happened. It's certainly worth seeing though! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-CDNLYZ0zA What other Mass Effect easter eggs and references did you spot on your travels through the galaxy?
