If by multiplatform you mean an Xbox 360 version followed later by a PC version? Then yes, it is looking like it will be multiplatform.

 

So I assume you are saying it's confirmed that it wont be on the PS3. Link please?

 

I think I read about the first, second and third being exclusive. anything else EA wants to do with the franchise is fair game.

 

Again, link?

From the looks of it, the correct answer is: no one knows.

All we know, is EA now owns the franchise. We all know EA. think what you will about ME2, but until I hear a press release from EA, everything else is pure speculation.



Around the Network

Honestly, I thought it reminded me a lot of Star Trek with all the different cultures, races, the Alliance (like the Federation for Earth), etc. That's one of the reasons why I thought that the story was going to be awesome because everything made sense. We also get a great view of how the political affairs take place in the not-so-distant future! I thought the story was very well-written and the gameplay was plain awesome (even though there were some frame-drops).

By the way, the ending was just too epic, especially when you have invested a couple of months in the game like me (school was killing me). I always thought "Oh, this is how it all ends? Hmmm, ok..." but then other things start and stuff, etc. Let's just say I haven't been so proud to watch the credits of a game in my entire life (and the music was pretty good, it matched the style)!

I was sad at the same time because I would have to wait another year for a sequel though... Only thing I know is that according to Casey Hudson, Project Director for BioWare, players should keep their Mass Effect save-files, because decisions made by the player in the first game will continue to have influences on their character in the sequel. And yeah, I took that from Wikipedia!



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

Watch my insane gameplay videos on my YouTube page!

maybe it's my laziness, or that I don't care, but I really don't want to find a link only 1 person will pay attention to.

Of course it is.  Which is why I'm wondering why you're not questioning Blazinhead rather than me. 

My argument is simply that there has been no evidence that the status quo will change.

HE has an evidenceless argument that it will.

so because the "Status quo " of Saints Row was 360 exclusive that has to mean Saints Row 2 is 360 exclusive? oh wait its multiplat!. you have no more evidence than I.

Thinks tend to stay the same unless something changes them. 

You believe things will change without evidence.

As someone in this thread already pointed out, Microsoft didn't give up ME PC publishing rights for nothing.

there was a article stating that mass effect was a triliogy that MS paid for bioware to do on the 360 console. If it was in fact a contract, EA has to go by that contract
