Somehow I think Mass Effect 2 for PS3 won't be a 90 metascore game for the following reasons:
1-The game is 1 year old, and well, it's old news, really.
2-The PS3 version of game won't have as many reviews as the 360/PC version had since many outlets will consider the game to be not so different to warrant another review.
3-The PS3 doesn't have the first Mass Effect and this (somehow) will knock down points. Also, I expect critics being hard on the "interactive cinematic" that summarizes the first game, they will criticize that "bonus" as if they were comparing it against the whole first game (you can quote me on this).
4-The price tag. Well, this may have little to do with reviews than sales, but you can bet Reviewers have this thought on their minds when writing a review for ME2 for PS3 even if they don't mention it : it's a 1 year-old game I can get for less than $15 for the other console/PC, and adding the DLC content is still cheaper, so not worth it. In other words, as always, reviewers don't review games for what they are.
