"1UP has it on good authority that Microsoft has exclusive publishing rights to the second Mass Effect game, but the EA deal seems to have thrown an unexpected kink in the plans."

"The first Mass Effect appears to be remaining an Xbox 360 exclusive for now, but if Microsoft had the rest of the franchise locked down, wouldn't they be bragging about it? You'd think so, anyway."

" Valve developed the Xbox 360 and PC versions of The Orange Box internally, allowing their publisher, EA, to produce a PS3 version through its London offices. Given EA's grand resources, it's certainly feasible for them to handle Mass Effect the very same way, but nobody's going on the record about it just yet."

"Frank Gibeau, president of EA’s Games Label added, "EA has struck an agreement with Microsoft to handle future publishing for Mass Effect. We are looking forward to releasing Mass Effect on the PC this Spring and brand new titles in the future.""

 "EA has now taken over the publishing of Mass Effect, which led to our next question; Will we see Mass Effect on any other platforms now that Microsoft is no longer holding the publishing reins? "No comment", came the response."
