contrary to what most PS3 owners want you to believe we dont want it. PS3 users are not shooter fans evident by sales of SONY's 1st party offering.

Mass Effect 2 is more of an RPG than a shooter. It has more character development and options than the majority of RPGs this gen. Also your statement makes no sense because according to 3rd party "offerings", PS3 users are shooter fanatics.

The fact is, it's a port, and PS3 owners (not to insult) are too arrogent to realize this is probably the best game ever made this gen.

I completely disagree. I think arrogance has very little to do with it (sure it's part of some people's thinking, but it by no means accounts for much of the differnce in sales). The demographic preferences are just different. WRPGs of any stripe don't sell anywhere near as well on PS3, late port or no.

Mass Effect 2 is as much of an RPG as Dead Space 2 and that game sold close to 1 million on PS3. The Elder Scrolls 4 which was a port, sold 2.20 million, but I think that sold well because PS3 before 2009 really lacked software. Dragon Age 1 sold 1.30 million, and ME2 is much much better then all of those.

It's just ontop of being an old game, it's a former 360 exclusive. It's quite literally one of the best games this gen, but people won't pay $60 for a year old game that there is no hype for. PS3 fans have no interest in 360 exclusives, and it's pretty lame because this is one game no one should ignore.

However, I can't say it's just PS3 fans who are arrogent. Ignoring the Japanese audience, I don't think Dark Souls will sell anywhere nearly as well as on PS3. It's just damn, this is literally the best there is and sales are .
