At least for a little while

IGN had an interview with BioWare on the matter

It's 360 exlclusive... for the time being

What does this mean? will the game to the PS3? will it be released on the PC like it's predecessor? will it be releasecd on the 360, PS3 and PC eventually?

Who knows, only time will tell...

If it isn't a multiplat initally, it will be a timed exclusive and end up on PC and PS3.

I wouldn't buy it but I hope it does come to the PS3... the more games, the better, especially from Bioware who a lot of gamers love.

They should go PC first. That way they can patch bugs and stuff and send a bug free version to the 360. So we both can get good versions.

Even if Mass Effect 2 does come to PS3, which at this point is a no, it will be difficult for PS3 owners to jump in. The game is so heavily story driven, I myself wouldn't want to miss out on what had previously occured.

It will probably be released earlier on the 360, then later on PC like the first one. I don't see it coming to the PS3, the first one was published by MS so it won't make its way to the PS3, so I don't see the sense of releasing the 2nd title on a platform that cant play the first one when the story is continued.

Got a point. If it does jump to PS3 they should make a ME 1 port and charge $30 for it.

360 is more of a WRPG system for good reason

So it'll be Mass Effect all over again then. Only now it'll be released for PS3 a couple of months later as well.

Two little letters can easily break just about any argument for Mass Effect being 360 only.

pretty much, if theres even a dollar to be made in making a port ea will be all for it, it doesnt really affect me in anyway...i have a 360 and ps3, so ill get the better version, which should be the 360 one, as it may be the only console version available to get

krunkfu2

exactly ea is more then satisfied with the 360 sales of the game

at the very best this game will be on the pc but the chances of it going to the ps3 are about as likely as gran turismo 5 coming to the xbox

The visuals aren't even the greatest I've seen on the 360. I reckon they could optimize it more. Bioware doesn't really have a fantastic track record of delivering super polished games. I remember swinging my lightsabers in KotOR and it'd cut the framerate into single digits :lol:

Unless MS recently did a hostile takeover of EA in the past few days without anyone knowing then no.

Sorry, but the dillusions stops here, i read the article

All it says is that it is 360 exclusve, and then will come to PC

Will come ... notice this one ... to PC !!!!! Specifically says to PC, like ME1

So, PS3 version is just NOT coming, and NOT confirmed to ever come, or even hinted at any point

So, Mass Effect 2 is now CONFIRMED 360-PC ONLY

That is what the article says, PS3 people may cry now
