All my computer gaming needs are met through the PS3 - my PCs are work working only and by now simply can't keep up with current games anyway, so I found it a real shame that ME2 was supposed to be Microsoft-exclusive.
Would I want to have ME first? Errr, I guess no. That games graphics are most likely really dated now and would require a huge overall, which wouldn't be worth it for PS3 distribution, I guess. So give my a primer up front and let me play the latest game!

To get back on topic: Personally I am just excited that ME2 will come out for PS3 (when, just when?). There is not much currently scheduled that excites me, so ME2 is it.

if you would not want he first mass effect then you are clueless as to what the series is all about - over 500 choices from the first title carried over to the second and possibly third...in addition all the relationships and friendships you form carry over as well - heck the LOTSB DLC would be about meaningless if you did not play mass effect...

I think saying it has 500 choices is a bit too much.Say that I'm an idiot but I only got 30+ emails and slight dialogue changes.They were only a few big repercussions in ME2 from ME1.I think ME2 can stand well on its on merits as long as the back story is explained well.

Again you cannot form relationships with the characters from ME1 in a summary - why would the player really care if wrex lives or dies? obviously no romance to carry over - thus NO continuation of that...makes LOTSB partcularly less meaningful...reunion on horizon - meaningless. Not to mention that some of the major decisions from ME, such as Rachni, while not having a major impact on ME2 will more than likely in 3 - will there even be an option to make that choice for ps3 players?
As far as the 500 variables that is a direct quote from bioware - 500 from ME and over 1000 from Me2 - if you think they are lying than so be it...

Yeah I'm sure there are 500 choices maybe more but most are very subtle that I didn't even pay attention to them.Many people put too much emphasis on carrying over a Romance.The core of the ME series is not about how many times you have had sex with which crew member(never romanced in any ME).ME is a Sci-Fi Action Rpg about Shephards struggle to unite the galaxy against the Reapers that threaten to destroy everything.On top of that in ME2 most squad members are new (and my opinion better then ME1s) so you don't need to play ME1 to bond with them.Plus Garrus is so likable that you don't need to play ME1 to enjoy his remarks.Wrex is the only ME1 squad member who has a significant impact on ME2 depending what you did with with him in ME1.bluewolv1970 wrote...

P.S:I have an idea on how the intro could play out.Bioware just have to extend the sequence,between the Illusive Man and MIranda, that is at the start of the game.They should make them talk about all the choices in ME1 while watching a visual archive of Shephard's actions.What Miranda says could be controlled by the player and using her you could determine what happened in ME1.

well we will just agree to disagree - IMO most people love the relationships (romantic or not) that they formed in ME 1 and feel that the game would lack substantial meaning at several key points...not to mention all the choices that may or may not be made for you versus making them for yourslf...also shepard develops a lot of his worldviews/biases in the first game... also the PS3 players will miss out on a few side quests and wonder whats the big deal with LOTSB (and who's LIara again?) - not to mention that virtually all the galactic news reports, emily wong reports, and the other reporter from ME will make no sense...so unless you care nothing about character development and relationships (biowares strong point) and only care about the shooter aspect then ME PS3 is the way to go...don't get me wrong getting it that way is better than nothing, but to say its as good an option or better than getting to play ME is just absurd on so many levels...I mean by their own admission ME is intended to be played as a trilogy for god's sakes...

Considering Little Big Planet 2 is coming out roughly same time, I think it'd be cool if there was some ME related stuff in LBP2 like there was of other games like Gods of War, Metal Gear Solid etc..
Also be neat if there was some ME related stuff coming to PS Home, like an N7 costume, Captain's Cabin as an Apartment maybe and the Afterlife bar as an area to visit.

They could try to add some sort of special survey in the beginning of what you would do in the first to have the choices carry over in the second...

And, the choices from ME1 could be a problem. They should include some options for it. The most important : choice of LI, save the council or not, and Andreson or Udina. They have impact for ME2, sa we shlould have the right to choose. Or maybe they make some sort of import previous saves from PC? PS3 is much more user friendly console than xbox:)) It could work:))

again I think it is good that PS3 is gettingt he game, everyone deserves to play it but if I HAD a choice of platfroms PS3 would be at the bottom -

When you play ME2 and after the end you still don't want to play ME1 , than you don't deserve to choose:))))
I will buy E2 on PS3. Even if I laready have it on PC. I will never buy it for xbox - the xbox was the biggest mistake of my lifie:) Simply hate xbox live.

As you can see from my Avatar,I'm also a Dragon Age player and that game is all about story(we all know the combat is terrible on consoles) so I'm not in for the shooter thing in ME.You make it sound like all real relationships in Mass Effect are romantic ones,that is not true.Most bonds amongst the characters are formed by comradeship and not Romance and ME2 gives plenty of new characters to form that bond with.Plus ME's story is is not a romantic one so the main plot(which is the core of the game) doesn't require romance.Also Bioware's returning charcters(ex.Garrus) are so likeable that the player bonds with them immediately.
P.S:I agree that nothing can replace playing ME1 but ME2 can be still be very fun and enjoyable without the first game.Too many people on this site have started a hate campaign against the PS3 version of ME2 and for no just reason,I'm not saying that it is you but just look at the people on the first page.I think things will work fine and a hell lot of enjoyment will be found on the PS3 version also.So lets support Bioware and stop the fanboyism.

WTH does customized access mean ?BLunted wrote...

I'm assuming "Hours of bonus content" means all the free stuff from the Cerberus Network (Zaeed, Firewalker, Cerberus armor/shotgun, etc.) along with a short pre-game thing that lets you chose what your Shep did in ME1. If there is any PS3 exclusive stuff i'll be pissed, we have been fans for years and don't get it? COME ON!
I still think this is a bad idea :/ Let them have their God of War and Metal Gear Solid, let us keep our Halo and Mass Effect.
It will have all the DLC, a custom intro to introduce new players to the mass effect mythos, and customized access to the Cerberus Network.

I really have no problem at this point with ME2 on PS3, as long as their is no exclusive add-ons, missions, weapons etc. I can't stand platform exclusives and multiple retailer pre-order bonuses, everybody should be able to get everything fairly.

Wonder what this means. Will it be like the questioning from Miranda and Jacob "where did you grow up" and "who's in charge of the council?" If so it seems boring.
