What Aku101 is trying to say is "boo boo ME2 is not on PS3 :cry:"

Evz0rz

I really think he's trying to say," I'll say the most random, outlandish thing and watch SW argue over it and I'll have teh lulz."

Along with making similar threads with alt accounts.

I'm sure ME2 will be great.

I hope people realize this is what we call a "fakeboy thread". Don't take anything said by the TCtoo seriously. He's just stirring up the system wars pot so to speak.

Regardless, ME2 will be amazing.

Aku, a fakeboy? Have you seen any of their other posts? I don't think any fakeboy could do what Aku has done.

Sorry we only use gamespot scores here.

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realize Gamespot was a better judge than an aggregator site.

in this case yes, because doesn't the pc clearly has the best version of this game? all "aggregator sites" seem to disagree!

Yep. soooooomebody's afraid that Mass Effect 2 will outscore and quite possibly overshadow a certain game that never seems to be "Final", if they had to go to all this trouble (and quite pointless effort at that) in making this thread :P:P

Reasons why it will be a flop and ME3 will never happen:

1. EA is the publisher and many people still hate EA. Given their current practices, they force devs to rush their games leading to mediocre games like LOTR: Conquest.

2. The recession. People are buying games that are well-known only right now and the publishers know this. Mass Effect isn't a well established IP, next year it might even get lost in all of the great upcoming titles just like many games in 2008

3. Bioware is spread too thin. With Dragon Age origins, SW: TOR, Mass Effect DLC, chacnes are Bioware will not have put as much effort into ME2 as they would have liked. Not enough manpower. Making ME2's quality to be less and thereofre get less sales.

4. Mass Effect doesn't have a huge fanbase. It's a very niche title and those fans expect greatness from ME2, but chances are it will be of less quality than ME1 which is why it will flop. This will lead to a smaller fanbase, less sales and the ME franchise will be abandoned.

1. EA still sells a lot of games. That won't change

2. So, you think that Mass Effect 2 is last on everyone's list and that people will buy all the other games in 2010 and not Mass Effect 2?

3. Dragon Age's team has been split between The Old Republic and Mass Effect 2, and Bioware only has a few people working on Mass Effect 2 DLC.

4. Mass Effect has a good-sized fanbase, as do Bioware and EA. And they aren't going to stop until they finish the trilogy.

5. I think you're just pissed that it isn't coming to PS3.

I'm putting money on number 5 :P. Although I don't get the part about people still hating EA having to do anything with the consumers. A lot of people hate Activision, and they just rolled in over $500 million ;). The whole "I hate EA" is a thing of the past, IMO. They seem more focused on quality and putting effort on their games. They've had their share of awful games (GI Joe being the latest...), but they've also brought a ton of awesome titles as well.

if ea games are mediocre, then explain that 9.5 that came out not so long ago. ea is not the ea of 2006 which just released trash. if it was activison publishing it then there might be an issue, but ea has had plenty of great game from the last year or so.

Aku101

1. Nobody Cares about EA. Everyones anger is concentrated more on Activision this days.

2. Mass Effect 2 is the best known title coming out in January, original Mass Effect sold well and received great praise. After the success of Dragon Age i see even more people looking intoME 2.

3. Quantity=quality? Bioware has been working on ME 2 for a long time, they have improved and polished everything from the first game.

4. ME's fanbase was huge enough to get your thread 11 pages. Bioware makes quality games that any RPG fan will be interested in. ME is the only good franchise EA has going for them, there is no way they will abandon such a successful title.

Anyway do you even have a 360? Seems like all you do is trash talk about Xbox 360 and its games.

Really? People still hate EA? I have a newfound respect for them, ever since the release of Deadspace and Mirror's Edge and later on NFS: Shift. Though the latter wasn't THAT great, they've moved on from their annual milking stages (even the sports games see vast improvements over previous year's). Alot (but not all) of their games are starting to show a large amount of polish.

Apart from that... *facepalm*.

In the future, if you see an old thread, please don't keep posting in it. The more you post, the longer it lives, and nobody should be feeding zombie threads.
