I love it when a person says Mass Effect is exclusive to Xbox. Makes me laugh so hard that people have forgotten about the PC.
This. I'm an Xbox gamer but only because I can't afford PC stuff like I used to. I'll go back to it one day if it isn't dead by then.
Naw I haven't, I was talking console exclusive. Mass Effect 2 is just plain sexy on my friends comp, of course he torrented it and got all the awesome armors for it though >.>
I really think the game should remain exclusive to the 360. I mean, hell I might buy it on PS3 but exclusive games are very important.
It was never exclusive to the 360. Say hi to PC. I honestly don't care, because of a few key points: 1) PS3 will have no way to start from a save game on ME1, since ME1 doesn't exist on PS3... yet. 2) The game was made to be played on PC, IMO. 3) It doesn't matter to me since I'll still be able to play it and ME3 on PC regardless.
I was thinking of getting it PS3 and then I thought its bad because you can't connect it to ME1, but I don't have it.
Actually Valve/Steam are working on making that less the case with Mac computers, from what I've heard. Also there's Linux/Linux based systems, which just require some work arounds to get Windows software to run. Just saying, it's only a technicality but it's accurate.
Great news for those who haven't played the game. One of the best out. SPOILERS below! Rant/Language too.. I'd love to discuss this stuff with you guys. Continuing your save from the first game is overrated. As far as I could tell it had ZERO effect. All of your major choices were summarized with a dialogue tree 5 minutes in. Ok, you run into your "love interest" later in the game but by then I'm already spittin game to 1 of the 10 new crew members. Seriously, when I said fuck the council I fucking meant it. I was expecting gameplay altering decisions, not dialogue I may accidentally skip. It just felt like a slap in the face to me. I believe they started the series over with Mass Effect 2 and just re-set up the finale in Mass Effect 3. They kind of forced you to build a new crew and make them loyal. In the end you've invested wayyyy more into the ME2 crew than ME1. Why would I choose the old over the new if they give us that option in ME3? Especially when they don't have the depth of the ME2 characters to make us emotionally connected/interested in their existence. Just my opinion because I care. I'd take the Mass Effect universe over anything.
What I like about Bioware is completely evident in ME2. They listened to their fans and they changed everything that was wrong. ME2 makes me cringe at playing ME1, and I LOVED ME1. It's THAT much better.
