[QUOTE="Nintendonly"]

I'm pretty sure Bioware has a contractual agreement with Microsoft that the Mass Effect trilogy has to be PC and Xbox 360-only, regardless of EA being the publisher. Also, Microsoft has publishing rights for the first one. The series would be completely useless on the PS3 if all they got were 2 + 3.

telefanatic

EA can do whatever it wants with all of them , they published the 1st one on PC.

tell me exactly how that means it's going to come to Ps3, you realise there is actually a deal between EA and microsoft over mass effect right? http://www.totalvideogames.com/Mass-Effect/news/Microsoft-Strikes-Mass-Effect-Deal-With-EA-12223.html "We really care about our relationship with EA. BioWare's been a good partner for us. We're very happy with the success of "Mass Effect" and we want that to continue. From a platform perspective, is it the most important that Microsoft Games Studios publishes it or [rather] that it's exclusive to the platform? That's the way we have to think about it." http://www.bit-tech.net/news/gaming/2008/02/12/mass_effect_staying_a_xbox_360_exclusive/1 based on that, it would be safe to assume that part of that deal between MS and EA involves mass effect NOT going to the Ps3

Wishful thinking.

Fanboys are pathetic individuals. They bash games that aren't on their system, but when the smallest of rumours say it's coming to their system, they get all excited. It works every way, and not just 360/PC to PS3.

I was just wondering.Also if you only own a ps3 do you want this franchise on the ps3.

Because people are also thinking Fable 2 and 3 will go to PC, AlanWake is a PS3 title too,Halo 3 will go to PC, Gears 2-3 will go to PC and PS3 and illusintions like that

See, when you buy a PS3 or PCfor the outrageous price, and you have nothing like those games on 360 which costs 199$, you start imagining things

Typical fanboy hyperbolic nonsense. Here is a person whose opinion you can feel comfortable ignoring.

errrr....I agree with ScorpianBeeBee. What do you mean by the PS3 being expensive? Its the same price as the elite and offers built in wifi and bluetooth! Also, no one mentioned Alan Wake, Fable, Halo or Gears of War in this entire thread. I think, just maybe, SOMEONE might be imagiing things :P

Remember when Bioshock and elder scrolls was xbox 360/pc exclusive?

remember when Left 4 Dead was a xbox 360/pc exclusive?

it still is? :P on topic though, I would love to see Mass Effect 1/2/3 on PS3. I've played through Mass Effect 2 on my PC and it was absolutely STUNNING :D

nah it's not, at least not here in the UK, the elite is 60 quid cheaper than the cheapest Ps3 SKU Ps3 new = 249.97 http://www.gamestation.co.uk/Consoles/PlayStation-3/Sony-Playstation-3-120GB-Slim-Console/~r417194/ xbox 360 elite= 189.97 http://www.gamestation.co.uk/Consoles/Xbox-360/Xbox-360-Elite-Console/~r417420/ thats slightly more than 25% cheaper,lol

Because Microfail can't hold an exclusive for the life of them. I don't care either way, I've played both on the PC I don't even like them that much.

When you have a ton of first/second party exclusives, plus pretty much every single major 3rd party exclusive in the industry you really can only loose from there, the PS2 had everything ofc with a new console a ton of those games would go multiplat, hardly the same thing, Sony still has tons of exclusives. MS is averaging like 1 or 2 high quality exclusives a year, living off multiplats is pathetic imo, no reason for another console if it's just a multiplat machine.

Because it only makes sense with MGS4 + Demons Souls 1 & 2 coming to 360 of course. :P

Me thinks cows don't really think it's coming but it's more of wishful thinking I guess.

They should just call it the Halobox lol, Halo is a great game no doubt, but it's just one franchise and it won't last forever, you can only "milk" a franchise for so long. And The 360 isn't cheaper, unless your a very casual gamer that doesn't play online or use any of the perks. And Gears is just horrible and yes I own it, playing the coop SP was fun, but the MP is just nasty bad.

That's why Halo 3, ODST, Fable 2 and Gears 2 all went to the PC right?

Halo 3 = ODST and after 5+ years on the market that's hardly impressive...

Mass Effect 3, yes it probably will be. Reasons: EA owns it now and like Konami with Metal Gear they can not afford not have it multiplat. Of course MS could pay them $50-$100 mill to keep it exclusive but I seriously doubt they are that dumb. They have been spending like that for years and it has cost them.

And that has absolutely nothing to do with the point I was trying to prove. Congratulations.

It's pretty evident that MS has been keeping what little 360 exclusives they have...well, exclusive. It's more fruitful for them to keep it that way.

How is it pretty evident, the 3 franchise you listed are all multiplat and we just got a pretty serious rumour that Fable 3 is multiplat.

Those games I mentioned are still exclusive. Again, it's clear that MS wants to add more exclusives to their platform. Why cancel the PC version of Alan Wake?

And a rumor is a rumor.

Why did so manypeople think MGS4 would go to the 360? Wishful thinking,because its a good game,so fanboys can bash other fanboys,etc... Pick one. Im sure one will fit why some think Mass Effect will go the PS3.

You don't know that for sure. Mass Effect has always been a planned trilogy, so its not ridiculous to think that Microsoft and Bioware made an exclusive deal on the trilogy prior to the EA takeover.

Most cows just want ME as argument fodder. They could care less about the game itself and that's just disrespectful to the game.SpiritOfFire117
Yeh, fanboys love to claim ownage when a big game goes to their beloved system.

i don't play online, and i have been gaming solid for 24 years, since the old rubber keyed spectrum, so i ain't no casual gamer, it's a bit generalised dude, you can't assume that somebody who doesn't play online is a casual gamer, i did hear that gears 2 MP wasn't that fun though.

I've played ME1 (on x360) and it was a great experience, really, stunning game.

Now, ME2 was such a disappointment that... it made me get a PS3 to play its exclusives.

So, It's been great to play ME1 but for the most part, I don't care if it's gonna be ported to PS3.

Because it's one of the most wanted games on the platform. Same goes for the big name exclusives on any platform.
