So you give them further exposure by quoting the spam bot and making more work for the moderator when he gets the report about the spambot because not only will he have to delete the spambots post he will have to edit yours too. 

Yes spambots are annoying, there is very little that can be done about them so just REPORT and IGNORE them, they will be quickly removed if every one sticks to that.

Yeah you're right but I'm afraid the same thing which happened to IGN might happen here,and that is uncontrollable spamming.

I didn't take the time to read everything in the particular forum so I don't know if this has been broughten up.  Did anyone else read the issue of Gameinformer where the lead designer of Mass Effect said they would not port this game over to PS3.  To be honest I was a little happy to read that statement.  I kind of feel lied to.

A quick question, and I apologize if it has been asked before, but I don't have the time to dig through 164 pages of posts .



I've been talking to a friend of my since ME2 was announced for the PS3 (he has, and plays most of his games on his PS3). He's interested in ME1, and I have been encouraging this. My question is this: Since ME1 will never come to the PS3, will he be able to import is ME1 game from the PC to his PS3 via flash drive or some other external media?

[EL3M3NT_Z3R0]

(5 failed systems tends to make someone slightly jaded). I'm just asking for people to calm down and think about what this means for the big picture, before making rash statements that make everyone look bad.[/quote]

Wow 5 failed systems.  You must have no sense of owner ship.  I still have an original XBOX 360 and it works perfect.   I'm sure you would know how to fix and XBOX if you're a "die hard PC gamer".

The answer to your  question is not  a definite "no" but it is in the "highly unlikely" area.  The PS3 is a closed platform and Sony won't be keen to encourage the use of PC saves on their platform.  It would be akin to expecting to have the facility to import xbox 360 saves to your PS3.  So whilst we haven't had a dev say "no" I think it is safe to assume you will not be able to import PC saves for various security and commercial reasons.

Now having said that, Bioware are on record as saying they will produce an "introductory module" for PS3 users that will negate having never played Mass Effect 1.  It is reasonable to assume this "introductory module" will allow you to tailor some of the decisions that occurred in the original ME 1 to your ME 2 playthrough.  That seems to be the route they are taking rather than faffing about with allowing the importing of saves.

I know we're still 3 months away from it being released but wonder when we'll get some further information about it.



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.

There was some cool ideas, I was wandering that myself. I also, would love to get the ME comics on my PSP, they already have Dragon Age, so ME should be just as cool.

[Elite Midget]

I think it was joke on how ME2 was said to be an exclusie despite people digging up early evidence that it might not be the case.



The amount of trolling and explosions that occured on the internet the day ME2 was finally confirmed for the PS3 was on a massive scale of utter and blind haterd.

[The_11thDoctor]

Well...This has been the most extreme thread in the forum I've read so far. For me who've went thru 5 360's due to just pure bad luck and mishandling of MS techs sending me broken systems to replace my broken system, this is welcome news still and I dont get the fuss. I bought a PS3 after finally getting fed up with owning a piece of junk system that always failed on me despite being in a well ventilated area on a hard surface. I sill own a NES that works, DC, Gen, PS2 etc and NEVER had to replace them, but I go through 5 360s?! EA is a multiplatform company, ME has always been multiplatformed, but only on PC and 360 and is finally getting a PS3 version that should have happened a while ago. Any PS3 owner had to wait this long to experience ME and they deserve a little something for finally getting to join the party and not getting to get ME1. I played thru ME1 and ME2 at least 6-12x. I love them and want to own them again. Sucks about ME1, but whatever happens happens. I will get ME2 and hopefully 3 on PS3 and enjoy it. If you own a PS3, support Bioware on it, if you only have a 360, just do what you're doing on 360. Why all the butt-hurt comments on being stabbed in the back by wanting to expand their fanbase, get more money? There is a huge PS3 install base that Bioware is just starting to tap and they got their feet in the water on DAO. I bought that too on PS3. At the time I owned both systems and went with the best version that wasn't PC. They added more to the textures and everything for the PS3 ver. I'd be pissed if the PS3 version wasn't better graphically when ME2 drops. PS3 has BR and can hold 25-50gigs. There's no excuse for not uping the textures, sound etc. Just also make sure to add the custom soundtrack option to the game and I'll be square.

[J-Reyno]

I felt like saying that I'm really glad this is happening.  I'm slowly starting to quit PC gaming (aside from MMOs) and I'm a PS3 player.  So I never experienced Mass Effect because I didn't want it for PC and don't own a 360.  Now that it's coming, I'll definitely be picking it up.  It'll be something to do while I wait for DA2.  

I'm curious as to how the story will play out, though.  I wish it be done DA style, where you can create a new character that's unrelated to past happenings and just coming into the story. But with ME's Shepard that can't happen so I guess there's two options: 1)a default story and our ps3 Shepard will just hit the ground running with the chosen background, 2)an interactive introductory cinematic that let's you sort of direct the tellings of the past with choices.  Or something along those lines.

Either way, interested.  Good move by BioWare bringing this over to the dark side.

who cares about ps3 give more dlc imo pew pew!!!

I just found this online.It is the full interview with Greg Zeschuck and Ray Muzyka which was conducted by PSM3 and was posted online by CVG:

So, why PS3 and why now?

Ray: Basically, we think it's an excellent congruence of a number of things. One is that we now have something we can show fans; we've been working on the game for a long time, and it's at the point where we think we know when it'll be out and where we'll be ready to show it soon. 

And, frankly, GamesCom is such an important PS3 market - there are a lot of European games fans there - and Europe is such an important market for us that we thought, what better time to make the announcement and show European fans how important they are to BioWare?

What does the PS3 bring to the table that the Xbox doesn't?

Greg: I think that's interesting; we've been thinking quite a bit about it. The important thing is that, fundamentally, the console has a very different architecture. 

Visually, there are probably some changes - I mean, there are differences in the way the memory is allocated, and the graphical processor is all different. 

We're not going to get pulled into the argument over which is the more powerful; at the end of the day, they both are, and we can do whatever we want on them. 

When you create games, you want as many people as possible to play them, so this is a great opportunity to reach a huge segment of the market. I think it'll play a little differently. 

I mean, right from the start you have a different controller, and that alone will change the way the game feels.[/i]

Was there a learning curve to dealing with the PS3?

Greg: Well, we certainly had a little more experience on the Xbox side because we did Mass Effect on there as well. 

There's always a learning curve, but nothing insurmountable. It's our second game for PS3 - after Dragon Age - and whenever we release a product we always want to make sure it feels like it's native to that platform.

How big a team does it take to make a game feel bespoke for PS3?

Ray: With every game we release, on any platform, we always try to take a very handcrafted and thoughtful approach to how we deploy it. 

We always try to invest the right amount to make sure each version feels like it's adapted in the right ways in terms of optimisation and control interface. We always put enough people on the project to ensure that.

What are you doing to bring PlayStation gamers up to date on the events of the first Mass Effect?

Ray: What we're providing is an introductory module. We haven't revealed the details of what that is yet, but it's going to provide a lot of information on both the context and setting of Mass Effect.

You know - 'Here's some of the stuff you've done up to this point'. Then you can jump right into the intense Mass Effect 2 action. I think players are going to have a really good framing of the experience as a result, and they're going to know what they're heading into.

Mass Effect 2 is a stand-alone experience, and this is just going to make it that much richer.

Module is an unusual word; are you talking about a video, or is it something more interactive?

Greg: That remains a mystery.

Have you used this opportunity to change anything about Mass Effect 2? Anything you weren't happy with?

Ray: Every time we release a new version, we try to tune it, optimise it and take all the feedback we can. I think the comments were quite positive for Mass Effect 2, so the priority is to deliver in really high-quality fashion on PS3.

Do you think games such as Mass Effect 2 and Dragon Age 2 have been dumbed down for the console audience - or 'consolified', as some PC players suggest?

Greg: That's not a word!

Ray: If anything, I'd say that the console games I've seen have been becoming more and more involved over the last year, including the titles from BioWare and many of the launches from our competitors.

I believe that's true for PCs as well. If anything, it's the interfaces that are getting more and more tuned, streamlined and accessible, so it's easier to access rich tactics and strategy while still having that usability. 

I think that's the real art of video game development - providing a lot of features, a lot of balance and a lot of accessibility all at the same time. It's not easy, but it continues to evolve every year.

Now I am looking forward to playing the game on PS3 but to buy it... i'll rent it but still if the "module" is your pre ME2 story so wrex lives and you save counsel and other stuff it'll make ME2 awesome for PS3 no need for ME1 but if me want play ME1 i start up 360 or PC vers. lol

[Gibb_Shepard]

This "Introductory module" would have to be amazingly well done for PS3 players to enjoy ME2 as much as PC/360 players did. Otherwise mass effect 2 is a game with already established goals, characters and choices, kicking role-playing square in the nuts.

Haha PS3 got the superior version

ME1 main campaign is about 10 hous long. Even if adding a few sidequests, if they adapt to the ME2 gameplay, it shouldn´t be that hard to have everything important storywise fit in about the same time.

[Jamesnew2]

Bioware... your one of the few game makers that still puts pc first. please dont comprimise it for the fact of a freaking ps3... They already have enough exclusive stuff. Dont let it become another crappy port. like gta 4.

I can't help but think that's jumping the gun a little. After all, we haven't really actually seen anything from the PS3 version yet. It also depends on what you mean when you say "superior version". The PS3 is powerful, and the game definitely has the potential to look better on the console, but whether that happens remains to be seen. I own both systems, and I've yet to find a game or game universe that I enjoy more (There are several that come close, but nothing that quite tops ME) so there's a good chance that when it comes out, I'll shell out my money like a slobbering fanboy to pick up the new version. Depending on how they handle the introductory module though, at least in my opinion, there's a lot to be lost in the experience of Mass Effect in general. Sure, maybe it will let you mold the more important choices to suit your character and your playthrough, but not being able to play through the first game to bring your character through, to experience all of the events first hand, takes away.

Now, owning both systems, despite the fact that you can't directly import your character and depending on how much control it gives you over the first game's events in the introductory module, it might be possible to play through the first game on the 360, and then go into the module and create a character who is effectively, and for all intents and purposes, your character from the first game. For me, that would actually lessen the blow quite a bit. Unfortunately, that wouldn't be an option for those without a 360.

Boy, I go on and on, don't I?

Mass Effect is an extremely successful IP, and it's really no surprise that Bioware would want to bring it to the largest possible audience, and I say bravo on that point. The more successful the games in this first trilogy are, the more money they make, the more likely we are to see future games, not only set in this incredible universe, but also built around similar play mechanics and story telling. I also kind of believe we're nearing the end of console exclusives, at least as far as third party developers are concerned. It just makes so much more sense to bring your product to as many people as possible.

As somebody who's been with this franchise on the 360 since the day of release of the Mass Effect, I can understand why people are weary of seeing it brought to another system. I mean, maybe I'm alone, but how many of us can honestly say that Mass Effect and Mass Effect 2 were two of the only real reasons to own a 360. I know I've said it a lot. And like I said, I'll admit that I have mixed feelings on this whole PS3 release. I'm trying to ignore it, but I do feel that sting that many 360 owners feel. I try to think about it like this though: Just because it's being brought to a different system doesn't mean that it's being taken away from the 360. We'll still see ME3 on our system.

For those of my friends who own a PS3 and haven't yet dabbled in the ME universe, I'm highly encouraging them to pick it up. I'm not trying to say that anybody else who's posted here is wrong or right, I totally understand where both sides of the argument are coming from, I'm just offering my perspective on it. I know I got a little lengthy here, but I just wanted to offer my two cents.

Couldn't be further from the truth-  the best part of bioware's games is getting to know its characters - but if you think being told who each character is suffices, then why even play ME2? just read the wiki...

as far as side quests...several produce quests in ME2 and others produce other results...

I mean anyone need only play the default version of ME2 to see how lacking it is compared to the ME1 import version...
