MASS EFFECT Trilogy never coming to the PS3!

[QUOTE="ragek1ll589"]Console exclusive, since it does appear on PC.Albanian_Killa

There's no such thing as a console exclusive.

360 fans are in denial :lol: I don't see PS3 fans going "The Agency is exclusive!". They treat it as multiplat, but being that the 360s AAA titles except 2 are on PC, they don't see the PC as a system lol

Sony also dosent have a pc operating system, that they but all the first party titles on.

You can run almost any Windows game on Linux easy.Seriously, stop being such a fanboy and accept the facts. MS didn't invent the PC, just a **** OS they sold to the mass market who had no clue about the crap that was Windows.

For the last ****** time dont call me a fanboy. Just because I dont agree with you, dosent make me a fanboy.

[QUOTE="lolkie_81"][QUOTE="Albanian_Killa"][QUOTE="lolkie_81"][QUOTE="CaseyWegner"][QUOTE="Gesyma"][QUOTE="CaseyWegner"]

the pc and the 360 are not the same thing. they are two different platforms. if it's on more than one platform, it's not exclusive. it's multiplatform.

Albanian_Killa

Ignore the facts fanboy. The facts are all three platforms are individual. I can play Mass Effect on Linux if I want. If it's on more than one system, the word "Multi" comes in. Multiplatform.

The fact that you're bringing up "Company Exclusive" shows you're a fanboy. This is System Wars like Casey said. I only see 360 fanboys arguing that.

I am in no way a fanboy, so keep our insults to yourself.

Im not the one who brought it up, I made a comment on it. I am in titled to my opinion. Just because Im not a PC fanboy dosent make me a MS fanboy.

lolkie_81

without Microsoft you can't play the game.

is the title of this forum company wars?

So we just ignore facts, because we have to go by the forum rules and titles? Doesn't make it any less true.

and why would that fact even matter? it DOES NOT change the fact that the pc and the 360 are two different platforms.

[QUOTE="lolkie_81"]

[QUOTE="EVOLV3"]The PC version says No.EVOLV3

The console gamer says I dont give a **** that it is also on pc.

Why are people talking about whether it is multiplatform or not? The thread is stating that it won't go to the PS3, not whether or not it will continue to be on Microsoft platforms.

[QUOTE="blackdreamhunk"][QUOTE="CaseyWegner"][QUOTE="blackdreamhunk"]

they are having problems getting to the 360

http://www.siliconera.com/2008/07/14/more-on-multiplatform-final-fantasy-xiii/

right now it's on the pc ready and working to go

CaseyWegner

where does it say that?

http://www.finalfantasyxiii.net/

there is another website that goes into detail about the problem

dude. where? give us a quote.

I guess he can't give a quote if it doesn't exist.

Funny how he thinks that if he can keeps giving links to nothing that this will just go away.

Should of just accepted getting owned by the first poster who called him out on it. But I'm sure he will try to post another link that leads to nothing or stop posting in this thread and pretend like it never happen.

they hold a monopoly in the pc gaming market,

they don't.

if it's shared, it can't be exclusive.

Directly from Bioware's website: OS requirements are "Windows XP and Vista". I'm pretty sure that you need Microsoft's products in order to play this game. It's not rocket science... I hate to even start making points like this but this forum is out of control with trying to execute these ultra precise courtroom like arguments... if you have only a PS3 and no Microsoft Operated PC or 360 you can't play the game."

That doesn't really prove anything. The console also "needs" a video card and processor.

Consoles also need a controller, which can come from different companies. All are important to playing the game as well.

In fact, If you need Vista or XP to play the game, you are giving just as much to MS as if you bought their console. Maybe more, as the Windows software is most likely more profitable than the console.

But in either case, you have to give nearly $300 to MS to play it.

DireToad

In your scenario, unless you are counting the person buying a top of the line Vaio just to play the game, MS is making the most money. Laptops do not have THAT much profit in them. Although Sony's do have the most compared to other major brands.

But Sony would have paid MS for the software in the laptop, plus MS gets the money from you buying the game (edit: in cases where they are the publisher), and the developer buying MS software to make the game.

Why do you think MS makes billions a year? ;-)

8 pages of this. lol

Just agree, it's multiplatform just not multiconsole. :P

Yet another point that proves exclusivity is based on software not hardware. 360/pc = same (microsoft) ps2/ps3 = same (sony) GC/wii = same (Nintendo). What hardware you play on means nothing, its the software company that you paid to play the game on. Ie a console or windows.Cipher92

There's no such thing as a console exclusive.

Sure there is, it's a game you can only play on one console. Just because hermits hate being left out of system wars discussions doesn't make the term "console exclusive" a fallacy; it's just not quite as strict a definition as an all-out exclusive.

If Mass Effect never comes out on the PS3, than cows will be missing out on what looks to be a fantastic trilogy. So for their sakes, I hope this isn't true. However, this is good news for the 360, if it stays..."console exclusive".

Just like Bioshock was never going to the PS3?

Or how Final Fantasy XIII was designed specifically for the PS3?

Yeah...

yes, why would you expect fanboyism on www.xboxoz360.wordpress.com, i mean of course there unbiasedPOJO_MOFO

It's not really debatable when you have the head honcho of Bioware saying the game will not be on PS3. What's your point again?

If you trim out all this extra debate going on here, then it boils down to two things that matter to me..

Mass Effect is coming out in '09

Mass Effect is remaining on the two systems its out on now, and that will not change.

Truth!

please guys just stop saying if it is on a console and PC it is not exclusive. did anyone else notice that in the Nintendo press conference a E3 that the said that the Wii was THE ONLY CONSOLE TO HAVE SPORE and they didn't even mention the PC.

Well that is already busted as the first is on the PC but if you just mean not on the PS3 or Wii (Different then the title) then I wouldn't doubt it "if" MS is publishing the games.Ibacai

I think they mean timed exclusive. It'll be released on the Xbox 360 first for about 6-8 months and then eventually trickle onto the PC. It'll be console exclusive though and that's all the matters to console owners. Most console gamers don't care if it goes to the PC 6-8 months later because they have already beaten the game by then and it's irrelevant. Just like PC gamers don't care if PC exclusive games like Surpreme Command, Civilization Revolution. LOTR: Battle for Middle Earth 2 and Universe at War come to consoles months later.

Uumm Mass Effect 2 & 3 are not on the PC and probably won't be until many, many months after it's on the Xbox 360. So yes, it will be exclusive for the XBox 360 for awhile. They are talking about the sequels, not the 1st game by the way. :roll:

It doesn't matter to the people who already purchased the game. Most people will want the game on DAY ONE. Like you said. For people who don't play PC games, they aren't going to care if it's timed exclusive or not.

I still dont care. If all the good games start going to pc only, and consoles suck. I will just buy a gaming pc. I bought a 360/ps3/wii and a 3000 tv for this gen. If needs be, I can afford a gaming pc. Seems like you took it personally, again.
