Why do people always make these dum vs topics? It's what you enjoy that matters not what someone else thinks is best.

I figured I got ME on the 360 and DA:O on the PC, so it was time to get this on the 360. =P

Played both versions of ME and the PC versions was better. It had better graphics interface and framerate. (I have built myself a good gaming PC though)



I have only completed ME on 360 so I will need to start a new character for ME2 on PC. As the PC versions of ME2 is out on the same day its a no brainer for me which one I will get.



Dragon Age runs perfectly on my PC on max settings so thatd another reason I decided to go with PC this time.

I played Mass Effect on the 360 but from what I've seen the PC version actually looks and plays better, but for me that makes no difference since my PC isn't powerful enough to run mass effect better than my Xbox and I'm not gonna give up of my level 60 soldier that finished all the quests 13 times (that's right, of my 3 level 60 chars, only with this one I finished the game 13 times, 7 on Insanity).

I know that most games might look and run better on a pc but i dont really care about that becouse i'm still going to buy ME2 for my xbox 360. I do have a pc but its not powerful enought to run ME and i dont feel like upgrading it just so i can play it on my pc.

Choose PC if:
yours is up to date.  The output can be displayed on a television screen provided certain equipment is available.

Choose Xbox if:
PC is below recommended system reqs.  Get keyboard mouse and keyboard/mouse adapters to play FPS with.  A much better system than the Xbox controller

Xbox was better because it's basically a PC were you don't have to bother tweaking graphics or config settings. Personally, it was less hassle for me for Mass Effect, though I do use my computer for gaming, too. Steam has kept my PC games alive.

I played both the PC and Xbox version. I liked the Xbox version better due to the controller lay out.

Console all the way. There are very few games that are truly better on the PC and then it is merely because of the mods. The graphics, while better, are not leaps and bounds above the console versions for the most part. The controller interface for consoles is far better than a mouse/keyboard. For most games, this alone nulls any advantage the PC ever had.



And I actually have a new rig I built almost exclusively for Dragon Age, so power/stability isn't an issue for me. I'm still getting ME2 for the 360.

When you say the controller interface is "Far better" , what you mean is you like iit better. For me, it's clumsy and difficult to use. For you, obviously not.

As has been said many times in this thread, it's an issue of personal preference.

For shooters keyboard/mouse is better.

Graphics comparison

Clearly Mass Effect 1 is graphically better and more stable on the PC...check from page 5-10 for pictures.

But since Mass Effect 1 and 2 can't be modded (I asumme ME2 won't be) they're basically the same thing. If you prefer the comfor of your couch over a computer chair get the 360 version. I play on PC with a much high resolution then the 360 can support so Mass Effect 1 for me looks amazing and running amazing with vertical sync on I always get 60 fps compared to the 360 version which is always slowing down.

I was just stating my preference.  I understand that some people prefer the mouse and keyboard interface.  Meant to place an IMO in the sentence, just forgot.  Playing DA on both the 360 and the PC, I prefer some of the keyboard elements (the hotkeys and TAB is easier than using the left trigger to highlight items), but using it move the character... ugh, hate it. 

As for ME: since it is a shooter, the controller for the consoles will trump the PC for me.  I always hear so many people laud the mouse as more "precise" and better for shooters, but I always had issues... to put it lightly.  I find the dual analog control far more responsive and precise.  I am a sniper with the console controller but with a mouse...

Depends on your preference.  For me, shooters are easier with an xbox controller than a mouse/keyboard.  :)

Yep. Like I said, very much a personal thing. I've been playing games with a mouse any keyboard for 15 years, to they feel perfect to me. On the other hand, I absolutely could not play a shooter on the Xbox 360. Action games, platformers, etc. Maybe. But not a shooter.

Getting it for the 360. My PC can't run the first game too well, and control-wise I've always preferred the Xbox 360 version.

I have ME on both 360 and PC. My PC easily maxes it at 1920x1200 and it's a IPS monitor. However, the game looks better on my 55" LED TV. It's also night and day compared to my old Plasma TV. Seriously, you haven't experienced this game like it was meant to until you play it on a big TV and 5.1 speakers... preferably a LED tv ^_^

unnoticeable improvement in graphics with the privilege of having to put up with a much smaller screen and the uncomfortable desk as opposed to the awesome couch and much larger TV screen along with far more comfortable controls of the awesome controller and the ability to have some snacks and a drink nearby without risking to fry an expansive computer.



PC=the expensive, non-cinematic, buggy and uncomfortable way to play a cinematic game.




Thinks someone needs a better PC, I personally have a 32" monitor, or can play games though my TV via the PC....



and gaming on a PC for 3 extra pixels or throwing money in upgrading my PC every year as well as more money to repalce it every 3 to four years with a newer one just to be able to run the newest gmes




So will you buy the new xbox when it comes out? Hmm....think we all the know the anser to that. The cost is the same when averaged out, cost pof a ncie tv, console every few years....same as building a new pc....

The PC version was....well....the PC version.....bug ridden with tons of issues and waited over a year for a proper patch and so on. You get the idea....a complete nightmare for an unnoticeable improvement in graphics with the privilege of having to put up with a much smaller screen and the uncomfortable desk as opposed to the awesome couch and much larger TV screen along with far more comfortable controls of the awesome controller and the ability to have some snacks and a drink nearby without risking to fry an expansive computer.

PC=the expensive, non-cinematic, buggy and uncomfortable way to play a cinematic game.

360 and PS3=the non-expensive, very cinematic, clean of bugs and absolutely comfortable way to play a cinematic game.

:lol: sad, so sad.... that you couldn't do your research.

I know this might be a bit hard for a sad little x-box fanboi such as yourself to understand this.

But a lot of 'Larger' TVs these days have this thing, you might have heard of it, it's called a HDMI slot which can also be used by PCs that have... *gasp* a graphics card that is better than the x-box 360 AND has a HDMI port so that the cable can go from the PC to the TV.

Next... have to sit at a desk?

Erm, nope, you see in this wonderful technological age we have these days, there is this thing... it's called Wireless keyboards and trackballs. So a PC gamer could casually if they want to crash back on a couch and play away with far better access as far as controls are concerned, whereas a 360 controller might need a couple of clicks, the PC gamer can do it in 1.

As mentioned due to these wonderful gizmos that means that the PC tower can be parked next to the TV whilst the foodstuffs can be nicely sat on a table next to the couch.

Stop trying to create a sad little console/PC war, your just making yourself look pathetic

Dagnamit Mav, you ninja :P
