Sachs’ ex-wife Casey Defranco told the BBC that he was "a wonderful person, extraordinarily talented as an actor".

Staff on his official website wrote: "Please join us in raising a glass to Robin - goodbye, dear friend. Thank you for all the laughter and the cookies. We will miss you so very much."

Zaeed appeared in both Mass Effect 2 proper and Mass Effect 3’s ‘The Price of Revenge’ DLC. His introduction was quite memorable:
