All we hear is bioware constantly pushing microsoft's kinect whereas most people couldn't care less.
Now exclusive facebook Xbox demo codes, the 360 demo available since the 10th whereas PC and PS3 players have to wait until the 14th.
The PC version looks like another shoddy port, no high-res textures people asked for, no controller support, forced origin etc.
I realise the 360 is the biggest seller but bioware is really screwing PS3 and PC fans.
Why does bioware keep ignoring PS3 and PC players?

Hey guys,
I know this will start to become a concern as we get into the launch timeframe with the demo and...other things..and it may seem like we are "favoring" certain platforms.
What I want to tell you is this: we don't care what platform you play on. If you are a player of our game, a fan of BioWare, Mass Effect (and SWTOR, and DA....etc) we value you. Very, very highly. Sometimes there are going to be things that happen that may make you question that, but please don't. You are the bedrock our successes are built on. When we have to omit a particular platform or group of players from something, we do so regretfully and only after carefully considering all the options on the table.
Now, the thing is I can't come here and publicly tell you *exactly* why some platforms will or won't be involved in any particular release or promotion. There are always a LOT of variables that affect those things. Many people, multiple companies, many days/weeks/hours of discussions, much planning, much debate. Often it is groups that you guys don't have any real visibility to. Sometimes, things are actually beyond our control (and by that I mean EA as well) and we just have to make the best of that.
So basically: please know that we are always going to make every effort to bring every promotion and release (and content) to as many platforms and fans as we can. At no point does anyone ever think "oh well, those are just XYZ players. No big deal.".
That's about as up front as I can be on this topic (without getting in hot water). In less than a week, everyone will be playing the entire demo. Hopefully multiple times and many hours of multiplayer
The war is almost here.

I wish Jarrett, or someone like him, was our community manager instead of Priestly.
Aw c'mon, that's not a nice thing to say. Chris is tireless in his devotion to the community. Every time he comes to see me I know he wants me to let him dish on some uber secret information for you guys, and I have to say "no not yet!". Plus he must have the skin of an elephant. Mine is like tissue paper.
