I don't think so because it will be another console RPG and if it really will come out, I think it will be buggy as Kotor as I waste my money on Kotor but not getting the experience that it suppose to give

Yes, microsoft is just trying to get as many people to play the pos 360, it will probaly be out in a few months at least, also it was made by bioware, unless they've decided to become money-hungry traitorous lackeys and forget their pc fanbase, then they will definately port it to the PC.

I don't think it will be,

they are busy making expansions and such, I'm not so much about them having time to port.

They should.

It would be nice to see it on a platform that can actually handle the game engine at all times - nobody likes seeing a promissing game pumping out 20 fps or worse.

Obsidian made KOTOR 2, that's why it sucked (they make the buggiest games ever) . BioWare ( made KOTOR1, Mass Effect, Baldur's Gate series and Jade Empire) makes great ports (just look at Jade Empire, 10 times better than the XBOX version)

Jade Empire, Halo 2, Gears of War were also going to be exclusive for XBOX, but were released for PC anyway. It will probably come out ( with better graphics and all the content from XBOX live ) in about a year and a half ( like they did with Jade Empire ). There IS a huge demand for ME on PC ( that's why BioWare made JE for PC ), but what we need to do is request it on the BioWare forum and make a lot of petitions, Plus, now that EA bought BioWare the chances are greatly increased. It will be much better on PC because mouse+keyboard>>>>>>>>>>>>joystick and because there will be lots of mods

BTW, Mass Effect is the best RPG ever made. The GameSpot guy that reviewed ME obviously doesn't know anything about RPGs. Every other site and magazine gave it above 9:

It only suffers from some technical bugs that can will certainly be fixed in the PC version

It will be ported to PC eventually just like every other supposedly "exclusive" Xbox or Xbox 360 game. The chances are even better because it's Bioware, which already has a large PC fanbase. Haven't you guys figured out yet that MS just wants you to think its exclusive so that you'll run out and spend money on a 360 and the 360 version, and then buy it again in a year when the superior PC version hits store shelves? They've been pulling this crap for years now.

The game is fantastic, probably one of the best RPGs I've ever played. It plays like a combination of Gears of War and Kotor. But the graphical draw-in glitches and load times are annoying enough in the 360 version that I'm glad I just rented it. The citadel is particularly bad. The design of the citiadel is gorgeous and it looks like it would be awesome to explore. But the 360 chugs so badly on the citadel levels that I always end up getting frustrated and just fast traveling. I'm not sure if the game itself is just buggy, the 360 hardware is too weak to run the game properly, or both. I'm leaning towards the 360 being too weak for the game. I'm holding out for the PC version in the hope that some of the issues are resolved. At the very least I'm sure the load times will be improved and we'll have better controls.

KOTOR was buggy? Hmm...the only issue I've ever had with it was a corrupted save file.

It was. And crashes frequently. There was this one part in Dantooine where I got into a new area, and the game crashes. Downloaded a patch. Fixed the problem.

But it crashes an area after that. I had no performance issues, but the constant crashes delayed me from finishing the game. Finished it a year later.

Look at the GS' review for the PC version. It's a sad port really. Gears was another bad port, some stuttering issues.

*sigh* at least we're getting Dragon Age made for the PC platform.

That's very strange, it worked fantastic on my PC, and I never downloaded a patch. I guess I was lucky.

What? SW KOTOR was a great port and almost nobody had any problems with it

Are you sure you aren't talking about KOTOR 2?

Had no probs with KOTOR 2, though i thought the first one was better in terms of graphics, presentation and of course, ending. Hated KOTOR 2's ending.
