I wish the devs wouldn't slap us with announcements and then go silent. People are confused (and rightly so) as to what the story with ME2 on PS3 is regarding ME1 and save importation in general, and they do nothing to allay our fears :/



And there's also the whole "what's the extra content" thing

We had better get an update for the Liara DLC sometime soon to help calm the $h1t storm Bioware has started, and it damn well better be good. Sorry I'm okay with this going multiplatform but I do feel betrayed because BW stated multiple times that this will not go to the Ps3, well what happend to that bioware hmmmm? I think the answer to that is..... EA!

You actually have no right whatsoever to feel betrayed. Bioware provided a game for $60. You bought that game. Played it.

You're owed nothing else. Nowhere did they ever say "360 and PC exclusive in perpetuity." You had your exclusivity (as I had mine) for a year.

Actually they did say it.

RPGFan: So, Mass Effect, originally on Xbox 360, ported to PC. With Dragon Age, you guys have gone fully multiplatform. Is there any plans to see Mass Effect on PS3?

CH: Mass Effect 2 is just on Xbox 360 and PC. People find that to be a surprising answer. We have exclusivity with Microsoft.

How feasible is it for a condensed, abridged, brief version of ME1 to be tacked on to the beginning of ME2 in the form of an extended prologue, anyway?

Thats what I think they will do.   Shouldnt be too difficult  to add on.    Problem is though PS3 players wont have the hours of gaming and the experience ME brought.   Can you really sum up the awesomeness of ME1 in an extended prologue?  Can you show the weight of the decisions such as the Rachni queen and saving the council or letting them die?

who friggin' cares about the Playstation ??? Get us some goddamn Info on LotSB-DLC, not crap-talk about some half-assed port with bonus items WE had to pay for.

What's to be proud about that anyway ?
This will only delay ME3, I see that coming, clear as day...

I'm both happy and upset about this news. On the one hand, this is definitely at least a little bit of a slap in the face, as this game is by far the best 360 exclusive currently on the market. On the other, I love this game so much that I'm excited for more people (friends with PS3s who have been dying to get their hands on ME2) to get to experience it. I'm stuck!

But I'm with everyone else on one thing: If BioWare takes advantage of the PS3's Blu Ray capabilities by giving them EXCLUSIVE content that 360 users can't get, I am walking. It will be difficult, and it will hurt to not play ME3 (which could be drastically different as ME1 and its characters/decisions could possibly not be part of the PS3 experience), but if a company could do something like that to diehard fans and dedicated Mass Effect players, then I don't really want to give them any more money.

Hopefully it won't come to this. I love the Mass Effect series, and at the end of the day, I'd rather be happy for more people to play it than to lose it altogether. I guess we'll see how this all turns out. The ONLY acceptable "bonus content" would be the DLCs you can get from the Cerberus Network and maybe a condensed version of ME1 with the key decisions and squad mates making an appearance. I seriously doubt that after all of this work, BioWare would just throw away the importing engines, so I'm not terribly worried about that. Everything else...Well, like I said, we'll see.

It's been done before, I think.  They could do the whole interactive graphic novel bit.  They could go "Metal Gear Solid: Digital Graphic Novel"

[Siansonea]

Guys, we don't know how they are going to handle our concerns. It's fine to voice our concerns for the PS3 version, but let's not assume that BioWare/EA is automatically going to do the worst possible thing in every scenario. They deserve the benefit of the doubt. Save the outrage for after they screw everything up.

My main concern is how they handle the ME1 experience, I want the PS3 players (of which I will be one, I will play the game on both consoles) to have the full effect of the trilogy, starting the story at ME2 would be a disservice to those players and the ME franchise itself. I am hoping for a truncated version of ME1 that will serve as an intro to ME2 (basically the ME1 main story and important sidequests, with abbreviated combat). I think there's enough room on a Blu-Ray for that.

Hm.  That doesn't really assuage my concerns.  If the bonus content makes it that much easier for ME2 to actually be the starting point for the series for PS3 users that's even worse.  Because then it's like ME1 didn't happen.  Which is the main concern here - choices from ME1 carrying over to ME3.

This .
It isn't the Ps3 port in ITSELF that makes people worry . Unless there is a mean for Ps3 users to make some choices à la Kotor 2

I believe you didn't comprehend my post completely then. My suggestion states that Bioware creates a mini-ME1, which is the presupposed "bonus content", INTO ME2 before the game starts.

I changed my main post to clarify this, but like I said, Bioware's stated MULTIPLE times that the PS3 version will have "Hours of bonus content making it the perfect entry point to the franchise". That sounds like they're trying to make ME2 a viable first game series, which can only be possible through implementing a way to get ME1 choices in there.

Simply put, Bioware isn't stupid. They wouldn't snub their entire fanbase to appease a new one. The selling point to their games IS the Import Utility, so to go against that feature makes little marketing sense. I guarantee ME1 choices will carry over to ME3 (Though the gravity of those choices is yet to be seen).

I guess that "Previously on Mass Effect" video was the big hint we all should have seen that ME2 was going to the PS3.

I dont care if PS3 fanboys get to taste the awesomeness of ME2 or that the ME3 release date has just been pushed back an entire year, no what concerns me the most is the significance the ME1 storyline, its characters, and the decisions will have in ME3. Rachni? Saren? Coucil? Ash/Kaidan? Blue Scientist girl? Questions oblivious PS3 players will ask themselves in ME2 and maybe ME3.

Bioware just dug themselves into a deep hole. Now they have to please the Xbox, PC, and PS3 fanbase equally. I do not know what to expect in ME3 all we can do is keep our fingers crossed.

Why do that, when they can just have the PS3 users play with the default ME1 choices?  They did this in ME2 for the default Shepard.

Yep. No reason to put the extra effort in at all really.

yeah, they also announced a DLC here a while back that a good portion of the fanbase is waiting for, and they have nothing better to do on Gamescom than to announce another port.

Screw them...

That said, my one HUGE concern is for the implications of how they will treat ME1/ME2/ME3 as a trilogy, and how choices made in previous games will have consequences, as well as the depth and breadth of those consequences. ME2 already had me concerned with that due to the "cool" cameos (the shunting of most ME1 characters) and "consequences" revealed in emails. Bleh.

Couldn't agree more. And it's good to see so many people sharing the same concerns. I was so mad when they turned Liara into a...

Why exactly do you loathe the PS3?  

Deavent wrote...

Since I actually loathe the console that is PS3 I'm rather unhappy with this decision. But sure, allowing a wider audience to enjoy the wonder we all know as Mass Effect couldn't possibly be harmful. We cannot be that selfish, now can we?

Although I've got to admit; if that "bonus content" is stuff that I've had to pay extra for (as a loyal consumer and fanatic), I sincerely need to shed a tear out of jealousy, and then feel self pity for an hour about the unfair treatment. That'd feel sort of like busting your ass off for years pleasing your boss, and then have the newly hired guy promoted for nothing.

[Unit-Alpha]

If you give the PS3 version extra content such as DLC or additional other stuff without also compensating the 360 and PC owners, I will not buy ME3 or any other Bioware game new again. Bending over backward for PS3 people is just not being fair to the people (360 and PC) who made ME such a success.

And to think, just 2 weeks ago, I had given Bioware my top spot in devs. Looks like Bethesda took it back.

[Time Well Spent]

So, erm,I assume this means that characters who may be dead in ME1 will have to have very minor roles in the third game, as to not complicate it for sony players...



If that is right, fans of those characters may not be happy.

[Eradyn]

@Flyinelk212: That is my hope, that PS3 owners will either get ME1 in its entirety, or an abridged version that cuts out most side missions and keeps the core story stuff intact. Above all, I want ME1, and decisions made in both games, to matter in ME3, beyond passing references. Granted, not every decision made needs "epic" resolution, but I hope there is something more substantial in ME3 than just an email.
