I in no way feel that waiting to play this incredible game, is woth any improvements though... Im very happy that Mass Effect 2 shall be amazing an fix any faults in the first game, which was my favorite game ever!

Ray Muzyka, the founder and CEO of Bioware, tells some info about the PC version of Mass Effect due to release this month.

Here are some brief excerpts from the interview:

"Yeah. We want to tune it and customize it and really spend the time. A lot of the time, that's about making the control system better."

" The run-and-gun combined with the better squad controls enables new types of tactics to be done in battles, so actually it's almost like playing a brand new game, which in many ways it is, because it's higher graphics, and we're trying to improve a lot of things."

The interview is 4 pages long and discusses more than just Mass Effect if anyone is interested.

If someone went back and tested those games.. Im sure you would see the same lies, and what purpose does 1080P have on computer monitors, if they are not a largest enough screen for you eyes to be able to see 1080P on

So much for the HD console era eh.

the 1080p standard lol. These toolish spokes-people who talk up these systems certainly are the enemy within of the consoles wars. Or the companies the greater evil of their own product.

I mean cmon people 'hd gaming' has been the PC standard since the late 90s.

Its because the PS3 fanbase is mostly casuals.. GTAIV is a huge Casual game, hardcore gamers still want competitive gamesl like halo etc.. they are in no rush to get GTAIV.. Id personally rather be playing mass effect.

3) Grand Theft Auto IV (PS3) / Take-Two / April 2008 / 1M

I always see alot of 360 owners go on and on about how PS3 owners don't buy games and what not. Granted its fanboy dribble but shouldn't a 5 million userbase lead produce more than a mere 850,000 difference in units sold :|. So who isn't buying games?

While I'm at it, whats up with 360 only having a 1,000 unit lead over PS3 in NPD. I thought the "shortages" ended :|

I approve of this message.. well said, nostalgic game play is lame.... we have plenty of sonic and the secret ring type games that give you that old school platforming.

Cause RARE doesnt care about your pitifull feelings if you dont buy the game some elese sure will , thosae gameplay elements from the old banjos are tired now, who the hell wants to go around collecting jiggies thats not going to work these days, thats is boring and tedious. Get with the program.

Mass Effect says hello

Why bother look at Gears 2 vs Gears PC... Gears 2 all day long, sure you get it on PC a year later... and then you have the next gen xbox coming sometime soon.. that will easily run crysis maxed and cost you $450 at most and be completely plug and play multimedia experience.. so I guess if you just cant wait and just have to blow a bunch of money now to have the best, go upgrade your PC.

wow.. thats all you have? Pathetic.

Why did they make such a crappy console? Every other electronic device with a 33% fail rate has been recalled! It doesn't matter if it has good games because the damn thing always breaks! Why aren't lems furious over this? I would try to sue them for every hard earned dollar that I gave them.

Why doesn't it have a mandatory HDD? I'd like to use it to cut down on load times, just like the PS3 does in GTA4! What about M$ Hyping HD-DVD to death, all the poor lems who bought in to that BS....tear.....I feel so sorry for them! Maybe in 2010 when the next Xbox comes out with a built in blu-ray player, they'll get it right!

hes in it for comedy relief

Did you ever consider many Xbox 360 gamers just dont care about the game since they are busy still playing halo 3 or some other great game.. dont confuse rabid starving PS3 gamers who have been waiting for a worthwhile game since launch with satiated 360 gamers.

Man, you wan't to be self-owned? The PS3 version perfomed better in sales. Remember the install base?kentaro22
