Now there's no excuse (Mass Effect 2)

for not playing ME2, people on /v/ are saying that it includes ME1 as well, no legitimate source for that though.

Also, I found this very amusing:

Rocco Logaraj Holy fuck. I just hope the PS3 won't get anything that 360 can't get. Just stay fair. please...

Bii ビイ デニス Why is the ps3 getting one of our exclusive titles? This sucks.

Nick Schroeder Fuck this shit. First BioShock gets handed over to Sony, now this?! Although I have a PS3 as well, I demand that at least God of War 3 and LittleBigPlanet get transferred over to people who only have an xbox.

Lasse Bruun Oszlár I feel like that this would only be alright if we got something in return.. Like God of War 3 for the 360 or something.

Patrick Α Davis BOOOOOOOO!!!!!! Mass Effect was a special gift to us Xbox users. i was what made us proud beyond halo to be a 360 user, now we've lost that pride

Davonte Blaze Shaw Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!! I feel betrayed.
How dare u goto the gay station 3?!!

When I get Mass Effect 2, I'm getting it for the PC so that I can import my Mass Effect characters.

Of course. I prefer to play it on PC anyway, this is just for anyone who doesn't have the option of playing on PC or 360.

What about the first ME?

Oh man, now I have another reason to not buy a 360.

Microsoft doesn't think gamers should play Mass Effect 2 anywhere else but on the Xbox 360.

In related news, Pope says people should stay Catholic.

Microsoft is also full of idiots who thought the Kinect (Or however the fuck you spell it) was a good idea.

Soon they will be telling us to drink Pepsi the freaks.

If anyone wants a laugh at an extremely butthurt 360 fanboy, search for 'GeneralMLD' on youtube and watch his recent video regarding the ME situation. I'd link it but I'm on a 10kb/s connection right now and it took me 10 minutes to sign in to Steam, I'm not going to bother trying to load any sites with flash.

Yes. He's the admin of http://xboxrepublic.top-forum.net/ as well, check out the 'Console Wars' forum...

Wat

This is pretty amusing.
I'm a Wii man myself. But I have a PS3 as well.
And I heard good things about ME. Maybe I should give it a purchase next year.

The first ME was published my Microsoft Games wasn't it? It's not going to any other console.

Microsoft for 360, EA for PC.
Regardless, you're probably right. My money is on the 'extra content' being some sort of speed-run through the events of ME that lets you make choices to carry into your ME2 save.

It would be really stupid to only give us ME 2, but not the first.

If MS holds some kind of right to it, they won't have a choice.

i like all the systems, and i play games for all of them (well, admittedly, i dont have much exposure to a PS3, but i own and play disgaea 3 over on prpl's occaisionally)

In my opinion ME2 is the 360s best game but to lose the ability to bring your ME character across would lessen some of the impact events considerably.

Still, the opportunity to bore more people with tales of how unbelievably fucking awesome ME2 is is one I will not pass up;

No matter the format, if you like games you have a duty to at least try ME2. If you haven't yet played it and intend to do so, stay away from spoilers. I mean it. STAY AWAY FROM SPOILERS. There are a couple of genuine 'Holy fucking shit!' moments that can easily be ruined by simply careful browsing on Bioware GFAQs forums. I managed to avoid everything until I'd played the game, and I'm convinced that it was a better experience because I had no idea what was coming.

That guy was kind of right when he was talking about the revenue. PS3 won't get nearly as much attention on ME2. For one, the 360 version of most games gets more attention right off the bat and the release date does hamper it even more.

But who really gives a shit. Just buy the damn game and play it. He was getting butthurt over nothing.

Confirmed to include Overlord, Kasumi, Shadow Broker and Blood Dragon Armor DLCs on disc, a Cerberus Network code for all the free stuff 360 and PC got and an interactive comic by Dark Horse which will detail the whole story of ME1 and allow the player to make all the major plot choices. The rest of the paid DLC will be available on PSN, possibly in larger packs.

No real surprises there then.

Sounds like a definite purchase to me...
