 I've noticed that a lot of players (such as ThatAverageGatsby and Sinosleep) play on the PC version. Do the majority of players play on the PC Version or is there about an equal amount of people who play on the systems. Also which port do you prefer?

[Dethateer]

Shooter = PC. And as far as porting goes, it's half-decent.

[Greenhelm]

I prefer Xbox because you can have friends over and play together, though that's irrelevant for Mass Effect. I would get the game for both systems if my computer was any good.

IMO it doesn't matter which system there is no difference to me other than more keybinds on PC.

I just like playing games in general with a controller and I rather like the XBOX 360 so I've been playing on that.



Also, since the microsoft screw up, I've been able to get every single DLC item, incisor rifle included so I"m having a Ball

PC is so 90's.

I'm kidding.

Anyway, I can only afford console.  I think the PC has a lot of cool advantages (hot keys, mouse, etc.) but I love the XBOX controller, and the XBOX achievements.

You will find many more PC players here because (here is the surprise) this is the internet!

My viewpoint.
Also, I can spend Microsoft points on any game-bioware points always have a unhealthy amount left unused.

PC with the 360 controller is my preference, the best of both worlds.

This thread will have to be locked by page 2. Mark my words.



While it's still civil, I'll throw in my 2 cents. I play ME on the 360. Actually, I bought a 360 specifically to play Mass Effect, I was PS3 only before and really had no intention of getting a 360, but I figured it was worth it for ME, and I was right.



I never used my PCs as gaming machines even back when I still used Windows. These days I have a Mac anyway. But I've always been a console gamer, all the way back to the Atari 2600. Controllers are just more intuitive to me than keyboard/mouse (even for shooters, I've never understood that argument) - it just takes me out of the experience when I do it with a physical interface that is a workhorse and a writing tool to me. Plus I just can't deal with the hardware configuration crap. Same reason I switched to Mac. I like my computers and gaming machines to just, you know, work without me having to tinker with them endlessly and having to understand every nook and cranny of how they work. I don't fault people who enjoy that as part of the gaming hobby, but I'd rather just pop in the game and play.

That's why I threw in just kidding.  Obviously not trying to ruffle any feathers, and dry humor does not translate well to text.

Having played on both, i'd say PC.

Controls of course, social peace at home with no fight over TV (i am very MEolic), the ability to semi-AFK EvE online at same time, the ability to mod/edit (and avoid scaning for exemple) and finally, 'tis a ME1 one tho, less stupid mini games on PC.

[Blk_Mage_Ctype]

As a rule, I prefer console gaming over PC gaming.



If I had it my way, I'd like to play it on PS3.

I love my Xbox 360, (especially the controller, so much better than the slippery Dual Shock 3) but the ever present fear of RRoD makes me wish it was available for PS3.

Actually this can be done on 360 as well.

I bought a 360 originally to play mass effect, I don't really use it now unless playing games with family/friends.

My choice is pc and steam. It is much quieter than the 360, I can do other work on it, no disc needed, small form factor is barely bigger than a 360 plus adapter/cables.

[Srau]

yeah i've read it, but it is kinda new, ME2 got modded since day 1, and you still need a PC

[AntiChri5]

I was just making sure the OP would know. Obviously modding is always easier on the PC.

[Vena_86]

If you have a PC that can run it, which should be any thats not ancient then why even consider the console version, unless you have a console save from the first game which you want to import.

The PC version has everything the console version has + better controls, less anoying planet scanning and slight modding possibilites.

Ah, ok, sorry.
So far, yes it is easier.
It is very nice someone found a way to mod it on consoles and it is only the begining, give modders some time and they will prolly make alot more nice stuff.

[Onyx Jaguar]

My PC is from 2003, can't play ME 2 but can mod ME 2 on the 360!

[GreenSoda]

I played both versions and I'd have to say: PC.



...though only by a very small margin. The port is halfway decent, but it could have been so much more that it's almost depressing (same med to low res textures as on the 360, no utilization of the additional keys of the keyboard, etc...).

[AntiChri5]

At the end it comes down to personal preference, i believe.

Unlike Dragon Age which is clearly better on PC.

Dragon Age is definitely better on a PC.  For ME1 and ME2, I would say there are pretty close to the same experience.  I prefer to play on PC because my laptop can play on high settings and I prefer the portability that goes with that.  Its always nice when my wife and I go out of town and I can convince her to drive for a bit while I play Mass Effect.    Cigarette lighter laptop-charger FTW.

So I hear... not to derail the thread, but how bad are the console versions? I kind of want to get it, but I've heard bad things about the dumbed down combat system...

[kraidy1117]

360. ME and ME2 where built for the 360, while PC version is a port. I have seen that there is alot of bugs and while the PC have the mods (no longer a big deal since it is poseable to mod ME2 on the 360) I my self perfer the controls on the 360.

Also why do people say the 360 is a port version? Did you guys follow dev? The PC version is in fact the port..........
