No, not really.  Synthetic vs organic was only a really prominent theme in the first game.  From the second on, it is a secondary thing at best.  The more overriding theme of the games, is individualism for humanity vs cooperation.  The major choice you make at the end of the first game is whether or not to sacrifice human lives to save the council, and whether to put a anti alien or pro alien member on the council.  In the second game, the theme is hammered throughout the game, while synthetics vs organics is only important in the Tali missions, and in a more minor capacity with Edi.  In the third, it's again a fairly minor point.  No more important than the genophage, or the illusive man's plans... at least until the last few seconds.


I'm going to need to agree to disagree because the main plot of the series was indeed the interaction of Organics and Synthetics. I would argue that the 3rd game implied it the most with both EDI, Legion, and the Reapers. Number two did the same thing. Heavily questioning if Synthetics have a soul. For they are self aware. Legion questions because they are aware, they have a consciousness, if they have a consciousness, then in a sense, they have a soul.

The main philosophy of the series is regarding both Organics and Synthetics in various forms and points of views. Verses does not necessarily mean fighting, but comparing the two and the aspects of them. Again, I directly asked someone who worked on the game on this matter. I can't name them but they did confirm this to me. Oh I CANNOT wait on the new game they are working on!
