I think it's criminal that ME1 isn't available for PS3. It's what made ME2 epic

Okay, now before ya'll debate this, ME1, imo, was a pretty good game. Nothing amazing, but I really enjoyed it.

However, transerfing my data to the 2nd one made the sequal one of the most compelling games. If it wasn't for all the references, ME2, though still great, probably wouldn't have been as epic to me.

Yeah, it's a shame.

I think its sorta wack that all the people who played the ME series keep going on about this we get a new and fresh introductionary system where we can understand the story and exclusive content plus some DLC, iam happy with that.

It's definitely a major loss, considering how sick the story in the first was. Hopefully they take care to flesh out the story for PS3 users.

ME 2 is one of the best games of all time, playing Mass Effect 1 has no considerable impact in the overall quality.

If I was a Ps3 only owner, I'd rather have ME1 than ME2. ME1 was the better game.

Well they promised an introductory that would take care of that problem. Hopefully it will be good enough because I'm bummed that I won't be able to play the first either.

I'm sure there was a lot of people who really enjoyed ME2 without playing the first though.

Sadly for PS3 owners nothing can be done.

well it depends on MS and I doubt they will allow ME1 to come to the ps3 we should wait for Bioware though and see what they do, they did promise something to fill the events form the 1st game, and they are a good developer so people can rest assured that they will do a proper jobGiancar

They could do a "sigma" version of it.

It's so sick to see the repurcussions of your actions though... , not to mention ME1 being such a fantastic introduction to the universe. It's a big deal, but people will be able to get over it fine provided Bioware properly intros the first game.

MS published the first game, no way that will be a multiplat, its like if Sony published Resistance and Resistance 2 came from EA, no way EA can touch resistance 1.Santesyu

Yeah Bioware did say they will try to give a good introduction to the universe and provide a lot of back-story and introduce you well to the story-arc, and hopefully they can get some choices in there too.

For some reason my whole post is italicized lol.

No, the vastly improved control, the lack of a loot syestem, way better framerate, arguably better characters, and all that made it Epic.

It's tragic, but they'll have to make do with it. ME2 is great, but ME1 is where all of the excitement began. I couldn't imagine playing me2 before me1, let alone skip me1 entirely.

Honestly, if they REALLY wanna play it or know the story, they will find a way to play the first game or they will go on the internet to get the storyline of the first game.

"nothing amazing"? ME1 was a masterpiece. :|

I am tired of hearing the same complaints about ME not being on the PS3. ME2 is a perfectly enjoyable game without playing the 1st. I would know because I never played the first game. It is very easy watch Youtube recaps and read all the plot spoilers.

ME2 is a great game by itself and I am sure that Bioware will make a great ME1 intro for this game-- possibly an interactive intro that allows one to make the necessary decisions from game 1.

You guys need to quit complaining about this-- be greatful they are putting it on the PS3 because it will hopefully give them more financial resources to throw into future ME games.

So far all you guys who are on the fence, ME2 is a great game without playing the 1st game. It is very easy to get a recap of the 1st game without actually playing it, and there is a sizeable group of people who actually hated the 1st game but really liked the 2nd game.

Here's hoping for ME Sigma.

GojiMaster

tell that to the 360 owners who didn't buy ME1

The 1st had a better story and the transfer feature is one of the coolest things about the game, yes, I agree with you.

Yeah, I could see Microsoft saying something to keep ME away from the PS3.

EA would have to pay Microsoft a ton of cash to be able to port it, but I don't think any amount of money could convince Microsoft to allow ME on a competitor's console.

Dead-Memories

to me EA and bioware took the easy way out they should of just did a collection for about 80-90 dollars i would of bought it in a heartbeat

ME2 was amazing on it's own, and yes I've played both but it had been so long since I had last played ME1 that it didn't effect my enjoyment towards ME2.

Well,ME1 on the PC was published by EA.Arach666

Yes, but ported to Windows by Demiurge Studios.

I would believe MS still has some say over ME1.

[QUOTE="Giancar"][QUOTE="Ragnarok1051"] Wait for MS? Is their a contract or something?Santesyu

If MS has the publishing rights for ME1 then how come EA published ME1 on PC?

[QUOTE="Santesyu"][QUOTE="Giancar"] form what I've read they hold some rights from the 1st game. Don't know what exactly. But maybe Bioware will find a road, like NGS2. But I don't think EA want to make thatloadedboon

If MS has the publishing rights for ME1 then how come EA published ME1 on PC?

I just explained it. Demiurge Studios did the Windows port, not BioWare.

Microsoft doesn't mind a game going to Windows, but it would object to a game going to a competitor's console.

I loved ME1 . Will love ME2 on my PS3 .

So what is stopping EA from porting ME1 to PS3 by letting Demiurge do it? They never told what the extra content is for all we know it's ME1 on the same disc. The change is small but you never know.
