MGS is not the best example. I mean Rising is coming to 360 and MGS 4 did not.

Mass Effect 1 will never be available on the PS3, because it is published by MS. I don't think ME will make it to the PS3. The fanbase is already on the Xbox360 and a late port won't do anything. I mean, Bioshock sold poorly on the PS3, because it was a late port. A late port of Mass Effect 2, without the original ME on the PS3 just would not work out.

Ninja freaking Gaiden 2.

Beat me to it...a day ahead. Dammit. I wanted to come in with the wittiness

Now dude says EA owns the IP of Mass Effect, and that there is no exclusivity between the 360 and PC.

Priceless

Failure to read or re-check article resulting in self pwnage. Priceless =)


"Update: Matt Atwood at BioWare just contacted us to clarify his statements from earlier today regarding Mass Effect 2's exclusivity to Xbox 360 and PC. He says, "It [exclusivity] actually does exist for Mass Effect 2. And beyond that, we haven't announced any plans."

Self pwnings given out for free.

edit: Now can we lock this thread since it's gone in a complete circle and has no use for discussion.

Unannounced plans doesn't rule out possibilities. Remember, Lost Planet 2. The situation was exactly the same as the above mentioned.

NOW, we can lock the thread

This is why PS3/PC is an awesome combo. :)

6 months later, without the original... would be pointless.

Hopefully it either goes multiplat day 1... or not at all.

What is not likely, but would be idea, would be for Mass Effect, as a trilogy, to come to the PS3, right when Mass Effect 3 is due to hit.  BluRay can handle it.

Dragon Age is coming to the PS3, Mass Effect 2 is not. They are dedicated to completing Mass Effect trilogy on the XBox 360 first. After that time the PS3 will probably get a port of all 3 games. Of course, by then, no one will care. Bioware will be dedicating most of their time on the Knights of Old Republic MMORPG anyways after Mass Effect 2 gets released.

Temco is making NG2 port for the PS3. It's going to sell like crap just like Sigma did. It wasn't published by Microsoft, so they have no ties with that game. I wonder what the next PS3 exclusive will be coming to XBox 360 and PC? Oh yeah. Front Mission is on it's way.

Go ahead and look at who the publisher is when you go to that site. And Sigma sold like crap because #1 It was an EXTREMELY late port (original came out in 2004) and anyone who wanted to play that game would have owned it...a long time ago. #2 The PS3 userbase was what? >4 million? And then, Ninja Gaiden? It's not exactly THE game to pick up, otherwise NG2, with all the 25+ Million 360 owners would have broken a million by now

Now let's not deviate to far from the main topic, ok? NG was just used as an example of how an M$ published game could still end up on the PS3. Let's not argue semantics
