Releasing a year-late port at full price is never a good idea, and almost without exception, your game will bomb.

Why would PS3 owners who have never played Mass Effect suddenly want to buy this shiny but still old RPG with its complicated universe, when for the same price, they could buy a brand new game?

They don't know what they're missing, but they'rle not going to pay $60 to find out.

Mass Effect 2 is worth more that 3/5 of the PS3's library. It is worth the money, especially with all the DLC. I have put 35 hours into the game and I am still not finish with my first play through. This is with all of the DLC.

I spend 40 hours on my first playthrough and it's a fantastic game.

I, however, bought it for £10 on PC and I don't think I would have spent the £40 to play it on PS3, which would have been a shame because, as you said, it is worth that much and, indeed, more.
