"In order to avoid alienating and locking out PS3 players, they cannot create large portions of plot based around backstory or decisions from Mass Effect 1. As such, the effects your decisions in Mass Effect 1 will ultimately be minimal at best"
This is a very sad day for gaming industry.
Says who? Some internet voice?
Big deal. Here. Let me show you:
"Microsoft announced today at Gamescom that, in the interest of fostering unity in the gaming industry and giving every gamer, regardless of console choice the opportunity to play the best a console can offer, they will be relinquishing first-party rights to all their titles. Halo: Reach and Gears of War 2 and 3 will soon be heading to a Wii and PS3 near you."
See? It's in print. On a message board. It MUST be fact. Right?
He, and you, have NO idea how the narrative will be handled.
