When I was talking to a couple of DICE devs after a lecture about their work on ME, they told me that only two guys were working on the port for the PS3, and back then nobody had ported the Unreal Engine onto the PS3.

...

The Unreal Engine has been working on the PS3 for ages... Look at this article from 2007:

Well I said something similar to the guy when I was talking to him, and he responded with something like "the unreal engine hadn't been used on the PS3 when they started developing ME"

The thing is, they didn't get any coding help from the outside from people who had done the same thing.
