We were inundated with tips this week about supposed "proof" that code found within Mass Effect 2 on PC "confirmed" the presence of a PS3 version of the game. It does not.

Seeking to clarify the situation, a statement on BioWare's forums reads:

The Unreal Engine is cross platform, hence the PS3 code. This was brought up back in Mass Effect 1 days as well.

Mass Effect is for the PC and Xbox 360.

LOCKDOWN!

Lockdown indeed. If you check the code for other Unreal Engine games - like Gears of War - you'll find the same thing.

Nothing to see here, people.

Here is the link

Since all PS3 users have a gaming PC it is no biggie though. Also if anyone has not played ME2 HURRY to the store and get it. If the store is closed then just rob them since the game is worth it.

I don't see why cows are going crazy...Playing ME2 without playing ME1 isn't the way to play Mass Effect.

I would not mind if it came to the PS3. More sales mean better sequel , or atleast faster sequel.

Why would PS3 owners care anyway? Don't they all have full gaming PCs that can run Crysis on the highest settings?

Time exclusivity windows usually last 6 months to 1 year, so, they will have to endure it until that times passes and nothing is announced for the PS3.

It's the same with lemmings; they hear the rumor that a third party exclusive go to the 360 like MGS4 and they go crazy. That will always happen in system wars; now is the turn of the cows for go crazy.

Well a little different since it has already been announced the second MGS game this gen will be same day release for both consoles. ME2 has already been released with Bioware still saying no PS3 version is going to happen and cows will not except it. I understand since ME2 is such a amazing game but the developers are saying NO.

I thought it was heavily modified UE? It doesn't even show the Unreal logo when you start up. Anyway, at least we know now.

cows should let it go, i played about 6 hours of ME2 then went back to dragon age, ME2 is a georgeous game, and it's a rock solid 3rd person shooter, but they took all the loot drops, inventory and character customisation so it felt really shallow to me as an RPG, just my opinion though

OH! OH! I guess that means Gears of War is also confirmed that its coming to the PS3! :roll: Sad thing is that cows won't let this go. Been over 2 years since the first Mass Effect came out, and they still think its coming to the PS3. Amazing.

That's generally the way it's worked with MS timed-exclusives. Assumably, it is in the contract that the dev has to deny any possible PS3 port until the timed-exclusivity wears off. I mean games like Bioshock, they denied the PS3 port till they were blue in the face, even when people found references to it in the code (kind of like what's going on with ME?) then all of a sudden the exclusive deal was up, and it was all like "oh, here comes the PS3 version". I'm not saying there is or sin't going to be a ME port, but after all the timed exclusives we've had so far, I wouldn't be surprised by it, regardless of whether the dev is denying it or not.

It's the same with lemmings; they hear the rumor that a third party exclusive go to the 360 like MGS4 and they go crazy. That will always happen in system wars; now is the turn of the cows for go crazy.

Only difference is former xbox exclusives do actually go to the ps3 :lol:

it's been 2 years since ME came out. it's well past the timed exclusivity window, and you still think they are going to port it to the Ps3, bioware are too busy working on ME3, and as they stated a PS3 exclusive title

Too bad for the cows... oh well, going back to playing ME2 now.... tata!

PS. ME isn't as good on the PC... yeah you can run it at a higher resolution... but you lose the cinematic experience. Yes I have it on both PC & 360. The only advantage of the PC version is better framerate, faster load times.

Uhh...did I read that correctly? We must have been playing a different version, because it's pretty damn cinematic on PC.

im not being a cow nor do i know a lot bout coding but why was there actual reference to talent points in the code as i said is that not a part of the game? Cause it seems a term that ME2 would use.

for a Level 1 poster you seem to be very informed on the subject and on the lingo of system wars.

I didn't know what a "lemming" was until I was a...what? level 6?

We were inundated with tips this week about supposed "proof" that code found within Mass Effect 2 on PC "confirmed" the presence of a PS3 version of the game. It does not.

Seeking to clarify the situation, a statement on BioWare's forums reads:

The Unreal Engine is cross platform, hence the PS3 code. This was brought up back in Mass Effect 1 days as well.

Mass Effect is for the PC and Xbox 360.

LOCKDOWN!

Lockdown indeed. If you check the code for other Unreal Engine games - like Gears of War - you'll find the same thing.

Nothing to see here, people.

Here is the link

Since all PS3 users have a gaming PC it is no biggie though. Also if anyone has not played ME2 HURRY to the store and get it. If the store is closed then just rob them since the game is worth it.

SilentlyMad

Your a level 6 and already you have a sarcastic view towards PS3 users we all have gaming PCs?

Now i guess thoes of us who do have gaming PCs are lying? Oh and yeah i will give Mass Effect 2 a miss i own the 1st one and i didnt like it to be fair. This stance dosent surprise me by Bio Ware its a well known fact the Unreal Engine runs better for the 360.

I don't see why cows are going crazy...Playing ME2 without playing ME1 isn't the way to play Mass Effect.

It's the same with lemmings; they hear the rumor that a third party exclusive go to the 360 like MGS4 and they go crazy. That will always happen in system wars; now is the turn of the cows for go crazy.

MGS4 is crap on a disc

Too bad for the cows... oh well, going back to playing ME2 now.... tata!

PS. ME isn't as good on the PC... yeah you can run it at a higher resolution... but you lose the cinematic experience. Yes I have it on both PC & 360. The only advantage of the PC version is better framerate, faster load times.

Also no controller on PC version for those that prefer a controller like me.

If it has KBM support then it has controller support. You just had to know how to do it.

We were inundated with tips this week about supposed "proof" that code found within Mass Effect 2 on PC "confirmed" the presence of a PS3 version of the game. It does not.

Seeking to clarify the situation, a statement on BioWare's forums reads:

The Unreal Engine is cross platform, hence the PS3 code. This was brought up back in Mass Effect 1 days as well.

Mass Effect is for the PC and Xbox 360.

LOCKDOWN!

Lockdown indeed. If you check the code for other Unreal Engine games - like Gears of War - you'll find the same thing.

Nothing to see here, people.

Here is the link

Since all PS3 users have a gaming PC it is no biggie though. Also if anyone has not played ME2 HURRY to the store and get it. If the store is closed then just rob them since the game is worth it.

An existence without Mass Effect 2 is empty and hollow. I never want to go back to that again.

Well controller is not supported on the game itself. There may be some outside program for that but the game itself does not come controller supported. I am not a huge PC gamer so I have no idea.

It's the same with lemmings; they hear the rumor that a third party exclusive go to the 360 like MGS4 and they go crazy. That will always happen in system wars; now is the turn of the cows for go crazy.

MGS4 is crap on a disc

Yet lemming were craving for it.

not all lemmings, i certainly wasn't, i am not keen on MGS since twin snakes on the gamecube, i am more of a splinter cell and thief fan, i have heard it's brilliant game, just not my cup of tea, i prefer true stealth, with no chance of survival if you get spotted

So... Mass Effect 2 is still coming to PS3, right? :D

Maybe I'll have to get a gaming PC eventually...

Only difference is former xbox exclusives do actually go to the ps3 :lol:

No the difference is MGS has been on the X-Box brand before but when has Mass Effect been on Playstation brand?

I'm not saying that ME2 is going PS3, but that's a pretty dumb argument. Mass Effect is a new IP this gen, the only potential Playstation console it could go to is the PS3. :/ The MGS franchise is like 12 years old.

The better argument is simply that the devs have said its not going onto the PS3, so until new information comes out... it's not going onto the PS3...

I would not mind if it came to the PS3. More sales mean better sequel , or atleast faster sequel.

Vambran
PS3 and faster sequel should not really be used in the same sentance, the only exception being what I just did by telling you not to put them together :P.
