Hey guys, I just wanted to know which version are you getting and why... 

I was thinking of getting the PC version since PC has and will always have better graphics than any console, however since I found out that the PC version doesn't support gamepad well I decided to go with the 360 version instead. I know what you'll say, I'm crazy because keyboard + mouse is better, yes, you have more keys and better aiming, you may say I suck because I prefer the 360 controller over mouse + keyboard, but that's the way I like it, I don't want to be sitting at my desk in front of my computer for so many hours, it's uncomfortable, it's also uncomfortable more like impractical to just use the keyboard + mouse in your couch/bed so sadly I'll have to end up playing the 360 version.

Why did Bioware decide it was a good idea to limit its customers freedom to play however they want, and let those who prefer sit at their desks do it, and let the ones who prefer lying down do so, we'll never know. I know what you may be thinking now; Bioware is giving customers freedom because they're releasing the game on two different platforms, but what if someone doesn't have a 360, what about if someone just has a PC and has his 360 controller from a previously owned 360 ? what's up with that person ? I guess he's out of luck.

Bioware supposedly didn't release the PC version with gamepad support because according to them both games are totally complete game experiences like if they were two worlds apart, for me that's not a good reason. We should be able to play the games however we want, and I'm not saying ME2 sucks or anything like that, it's gonna be a terrific game, but for this, just for not including the gamepad support it won't be a perfect 10. Why Bioware ? Why ? Next time please listen to your customers and include more features in your games. Just ADD don't substract, it wouldn't hurt to have more ways, different ways to play your games, instead of having fewer, would it ?

Also, don't say that we have the xpadder option because for me that's not a very good option, I mean it's a good option if you're desperate and can't find a way, but it's not the same experience as if the game included the support natively. Well I hope this opinion doesn't get flagged or banned, it's just my humble opinion and I know for sure that many people are with me on this one.

Thanks Bioware for releasing such an incredible game but next time please listen to ALL your customers and not just a part of them

Yes, well, most of their PC customers were saying that they wanted a game made for the PC and capable of taking advantage of all the things the PC has that consoles dont. Nothing would have pissed them off like making the game for a controller and crippling it for keyboard/mouse.



I know you want to think that you could do both, but you really can't. One of them is always better, and the grand majority of PC players do not use controllers.

what happens when all customers don't agreee?

Anyways, I don't believe they offered 360 controller support for DA:O either.  Probably ahs to do with the additional time it would take to program and they don't feel it's worth it.

But you are correct, PC will always be better.

well i think it was because mass effect pc had a few changes from the 360 version, like the individual squad commands and using the numbers for powers (can't think of the name right now). Personally, i don't mind keyboard and mouse or controller, i find it hard to play on a tv as I find it hard to concentrate on the whole screen

Played ME1 on both but getting ME2 for PC. It's $10 cheaper, I prefer mouse+keyboard controls for any shooter, and also, my laptop is all I have at school while my 360 is home so I'd have to wait till I got home if I wanted to play it there (which would be another month of waiting).



If ME1 is anything to go by, all the menus in the PC version are completely redone to be more mouse+key friendly so adding gamepad support isn't quite so straightforward. However there are games (Bioshock PC is 1 example) that has a PC UI but if you plug in a 360 controller, it switches to the 360 version UI. Bioware definitely could've done something like that and that way people who prefer gamepads would be satisfied.

You can still hook up your PC to your HDTV, and probably use a gamepad as well; just not the Xbox 360 one.

Also, I'll take my 30 inch high rez monitor over your 65 inch HDTV any day Posted Image

1600p > 720p

That's what I'm talking about, everything's possible, maybe it wasn't worth it, I don't know anything about programming, but it shouldn't be that hard for big companies like Bioware to give two different UIs in the same game :P

Getting the CE on the 360 because I have ME1 CE on the 360. I might buy the PC version when the price drops if the graphics are different enough on the PC.

PC. I bought the original on the PC, and I prefer mouse and keyboard for these type of games over a controller.

X360 for me. That's where I have the first character I created, and that's where I spend the most of my time playing Mass Effect. I have Mass Effect on PC too, though due to some performance issues I never played it much.
