We don't provide the 'easy to program for' console that they [developers] want, because 'easy to program for' means that anybody will be able to take advantage of pretty much what the hardware can do, so the question is what do you do for the rest of the nine and half years? It's a learning process. - SCEI president Kaz Hirai

It's a virus where you buy it and you play it with your friends and they're like, "Oh my God that's so cool, I'm gonna go buy it." So you stop playing it after two months, but they buy it and they stop playing it after two months but they've showed it to someone else who then go out and buy it and so on. Everyone I know bought one and nobody turns it on. - Epic Games president Mike Capps

We have a real culture of thrift. The goal that I had in bringing a lot of the packaged goods folks into Activision about 10 years ago was to take all the fun out of making video games. - Activision CEO Bobby Kotick

I believe that is referred to as a "Good ol' fashioned ass kickin".

Impressive scores while this issue of GI had virtually nothing of note for the PS3 (that I remember, I only had time to flip through the issue last night).

 Bioware owned the Mass Effect IP so it now belongs to EA.  Bioware would like to keep Mass Effect on the 360 but they can't predict the future.  I don't care if it goes multiplatform as long as it comes out in a timely manner and is as good if not better then part 1.

Bioware's Comments on ME's future: http://computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=173602 Microsoft's Comments: http://news.teamxbox.com/xbox/14791/Microsoft-Provides-Update-on-Mass-Effect/ Looks like Bioware is certain that it will stay exclusive 360.
