Forums - Sony Discussion - Mass Effect 1 on PS3 has long load times, pop-in and frame rate issues

I guess since a quick and dirty port of Mass Effect by an external developer for the PS3 doesn't perform as well as the Bioware developed highly optimized Mass Effect 3 for the PS3 we can finally accept that the PS3 isn't as powerful as the PS3 ...

So what you're saying is.... It's a exact port of the 360 version? I ran into these same issues on my playthrough on 360 so no big deal. I don't really get why this is news.



Currently own:

 

  • Ps4

 

Currently playing: Witcher 3, Walking Dead S1/2, GTA5, Dying Light, Tomb Raider Remaster, MGS Ground Zeros

I'm reluctant to believe this performs as badly as the 360 version. Its been about five years! But if this is true it sounds like they just did a straight port of the 360 version.

Oh well, at least its cheap.

Xbox360>>>>>PS3 confirmed!



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

This is exactly what I said to the wii u owners complaining about this. This will be a shoddy rushed port just to make a quick buck off it. Everything ea are doing with this franchise is just milking now. The wii u version was to make a cash grab on launch and people shouldn't be surprised they don't actually care about this. If they really cared about the original mass effect on ps3 it would have migrated long ago. This was nothing more then one last cash in.



One more thing to complete my year = senran kagura localization =D

I'm disappointed it's a simple port. I own ME on PC and 360, and was hoping it would be more like the former than the latter. It's not to be, it seems. Shame. I was kinda hankering to play it again. I may still buy it, just, y'know, because it's ME, and it's one of my favourite games of the generation (on PC, I hasten to add), but it's less likely now. Still, better something over nothing.

to be fair it's not like this is them shoveling out just Mass effect one as a weak port on the ps3, it's the trilogy you get the whole series for around 40euros, that is amazingly good value if you haven't played them before, absolutely amazing pack of games even if the quality of the first one isn't stellar considering the games are a little over 10euros each you really can't complain here, and this is coming from some who hates EA/Bioware :D



Why not check me out on youtube and help me on the way to 2k subs over at www.youtube.com/stormcloudlive

well damn, just got the trilogy. woulda went with PC version but i already have a file from ME2, oh well



Come on wiiU fans we dont need to say it.. but still LOL! ...

still better value than the port on the wiiU.. hope no one buys that POS



 

Its Value over price nonetheless. Bioware made this trilogy to tempt ppl to buy it (at the lowest production expenses)
