Mass Effect – Kirrahe Holds the Line
Sharp. Precise. Invoking but to-the-point. In little more than a minute, Captain Kirrahe gets his band of Salarian brothers ready for a suicide mission long before Mass Effect 2 rewrote the definition. Sure, objective completion and intuitive thinking might save the Captain a smattering of his men, but individually, these sons of the 3rd Infiltration Regiment STG are fully devoted to the notion that this, here on Virmire, is their final hour. For many, it will be.
Without the leadership of Kirrahe (who’s appropriately named after a mountain used to prepare U.S. paratroopers for D-Day) Shepard’s mission never would have had a chance. Saren – the Reapers – would reign supreme.
But not this day. With a swift salvo of rhetoric, a timely thunder clap from the God of Punctuation, one of the more resonant moments in Mass Effect makes it mark. And the line is held.

Kirrahes speech wasn’t tht great.
Current Gen…I’m not really sure.
Last Gen though, one of the best would be Christopher Stone’s Speech at the TV Station in Freedom Fighters. Everything about it is just perfect, even more so seeing as at first, he was so silent, but after all these events, he rises up and tells his fellow soldiers everything.
I’m so happy to see Andrew Ryan’s speech on here
Personally, I liked Reznov’s speeches in World at War, and Johnson’s speeches in the Halo Trilogy.
I loved that Big Boss speech, but man, it sure did go on a long time. Foxdie used to act a lot quicker, lol.
Kirrahe’s speech in this clip is not in sync with the score, and his inflection is different from the PC version. I’m wondering if the XBox 360 version had a different track then? The PC version seems more “epic.”
