    I was wondering if it was the same for everyone, in mine he was threatening me and then it appeared he was going to shoot me when someone else in my party shot him!

    If Wrex did die then you did something wrong.

    I beat his ass down for talking back to me about his people.  Then while on the ground I shot that animal in the head and ended the burden he had on the rest of my crew.

    Only way he can die. The only other eventuality in that stand-off is to talk him out of it.

    In one of the times I ended up just capping him square in the face.  However, in every following run-through I made sure he lived.  Shepherd.

    Well he isn't dead in my main playthrough which is the one I'm bringing over to Mass Effect 2 but he died in one of my playthroughs 
     
    He was threatning me but I was refusing to shoot him because I didn't want him to die, so I tried reasoning with him but it didn't work and Ashley ended up shooting him to save me 
     
    So I've never actually killed Wrex

     You can shoot wrex or ashely can. When i went though my renegade, i shot him.
     
    Unless you had enough renegade or paragon points in your stats, then a new dialogue option would show, either red or blue to show if it was a paragon or renegade persuasion technique and you could prevent him from shooting

    Anyone who shot that awesome dude Wrex and then saved that xenophobic skank Ashley in Mass Effect 1, doesn't deserve to play Mass Effect 2. 
     
    The honourable way to play ME1 is to listen intently to everything Wrex says and then help him out whenever he needs it and only talk to Ashley to tell her to STFU.

    You can choose to shoot him yourself, in which case Shepard makes sure he's dead. Like he drops after the first blast, then Shep shoots the corpse like three more times to be sure. It's fucking brutal.
     
    The best way to save Wrex is just deny his request to join your party originally, then pick him up after Virmire. He's none the wiser and you don't have to have that showdown with him :D

    I only just finished it a couple months ago, not everyone has played it yet and more people are probably still willing to try it with the release of Mass 2 soon.

    As long as you have at least the ability to persuade or intimidate, you can easily guarantee he won't die.

    Exactly.  You can talk it down to the point where he lives.  I always invest in the conversation stuff, so useful.  Here it saved Wrex.

     If I remember right, can't you A) kill wrex, B) destroy the cure for the genophage but Wrex lives, or C) save the cure and Wrex lives. I wonder if there will be 3 seperate outcomes in ME2 for the 3 different ways you can resolve the Wrex situation. Brad mentioned on the bombcast that if Wrex lives he becomes the krogan king, and your reception on the krogan planet will be vastly different in ME2, but I wonder if that only happens if you get the 3rd outcome.

    Interesting point I didn't think of that.  Would be very interesting to see where that other Wrex might be.

    In all reality they probably just break it down to whether or not you saved the cure, and option A/B will result in the same exact effects on your world, maybe with 1 or 2 throwaway lines to address that wrex eventually killed himself or disappeared because of what he let you do. But if they are going that deep in this game where actions in the previous game can permanently change the personalities of characters in ME2, that would be something.

    I dont think the cure is saved, being that you nuke the whole facility. Unless Wrex got it while I was off letting Kaiden Die.

    If you are a total ass face then yea he can die, but at least you'll get rewarded for your jerk-ness for seeing Wrex's race in utter conflict in ME2, rather then him being the ruler of his people if he's alive.

    After doing wrex's sidequest I simply told him it was for the best of his species  and he gave up, he clearly valued my friendship.
    I really cant wait for ME2 now so i can see my favourite space frog.

    First playthrough Ashley shot him, partly my fault for my finger slipping when making dialogue choices... 
    I reset my console and replayed from the start of that planet and saved him 2nd time round... well worth it.
    After that the choice between Ashley and Kaiden was clear. :)

    Yeah, I'm pretty sure the cure is destroyed, which is the whole reason why Wrex turns on you in the first place. A shame, because it would have made sense to rescue the cure before blowing up the facility. But I guess that would be too flowery an outcome for a game like this.

    Yeah, that was my mistake. I hadn't played the game for a couple years, and for some reason I thought that you had a choice whether or not to save the cure, rather than just convincing wrex to go along with your or not.

    Shepard was too quick to put his clothes back on IMO--seemed like he was grossed out by what happened in the bed.

    I'll probably play it one more time all the way through before I go back to classes. When I first played it Wrex died, so I reloaded a save and had to repeat all of virmire until I leveled up and put enough points in charm/intimidate, to keep him alive.
