Thats great news, but it's strange the PS3 won't have ME 1. Do you have to play ME 1 in order to understand ME2? If so, maybe ME 1 will come together with ME2 like WKC 2 did (if I remember right).



Um it is very important, plus you get crappy settings in ME2 Default.

Honestlly you are ps3 only user, I highly recommend not getting this, ME2 Default is disappointing.

microsoft just doesnt care about the core gamers anymore

if L4D comes to ps3 im giving up on the 360!


Why? Are you going to enjoy less because the game is in more than one platform? This is ridiculous.


lol I wish I could show this to diolitude and forgot his name from yesterday .....

Come on, MUGEN, you're not the one to talk here.

I just can't understand WHY.

Without the original, it's pointless if you ask me...

Its NOT because they want ME3 to be on PS3....lets be honest ME2 sales aren't very good.

and maybe they couldn't justify having ME1 ont he same disc


ME3 is supposedly going to be even MORE pointless without ME1. WHat about the Rachni Queen decision? What about the end decisions? There are so many choices you made in ME1 that kind of barely made it into ME2 that I suspect will come to fruition only in ME3. Furthermore maybe ME2 sales aren't that good because ME2 itself was a worse game than ME1.

I AGREE with you

but the decision seems to be a financial one to me.

They want ME3 on PS3, so they are AT LEAST giving it ME2 because apparently ME2 will affect ME3 more than ME1 affected ME2.

This has happened just to set up ME3 to be on PS3 day and date with PC/360


It is a very pisspoor financial decision then, because ME2 itself is a very very mediocre and meh game. If they are counting on people to have ME2 as their first taste of ME then more likely people are going to be disappointed and end up not buying ME3 anyhow. Not only was ME1 better than ME2, but it also made ME2 suck a lot less.  If ME1 doesn't make it over, then this is like pissing in the wind.

Please you are extremely misinformed (just like the QTE incident in the Deus Ex thread).

This is being done as a set up to ME2 and there are many PlayStation gamers who are waiting for this because the last good WRPG released on the PS3 was Oblivion and its been 3 years since then!

{see how I can pretend my opinion is a fact in the last sentence?}

Or what if it was a technical reason?  I mean; porting early unreal engine games to PS3 is a horrible pain in the ass and I can assure you porting Mass Effect 1 over to the PS3 is just not a good idea financially.  You have to port the game over, and chances are it's going to run like trash and have half the texture resolution in the game unless they rework the game from scratch.  Mass Effect 2 was probably made for the PS3 hand in hand with the 360/PC version (The PC has an ini file that sets up player stats and such for each console including the PS3) so they were probably sitting on this game for a while and it probably runs well enough with little to no compromises.  Throw in all the DLC from the game and maybe a few extras and they should be able to sell the game for full price.  In other words; this game is going to bomb hard with its $59.99 price tag.

that's why it has the highest reviews of the year? Maybe overrated like GTA IV to you, but to critics it is one of the best games of the year


Yeah and GTA4 is just as amazing yadda yadda yadda. Your logic is so flawed it is not even funny. In one sentence you manage to cite critics, as if they are right, and in the same breath dismiss them.

I don't get people hate for ME2, but I still think the default options of ME2 pissed me off. For heaven sakes I killed Ashley in the default options.
