Looking forward to it?

I know some of you have played the console version but was wondering who was looking forward to jumping on the PC version.

Spidery Yoda · 11-04-2008, 03:32 PM

I have it for my 360.

I'm currently trying to go through on the Insanity difficulty mode, and it ain't easy. I got to the part where you have to fight the Krogan after rescuing Liara, and my progress came to a complete halt.

That part was difficult enough on easy and hardcore, let alone Insanity. Now it's bordering on impossible.

I know this doesn't really have anything to do with the PC version but oh well.

The PC's way of letting you use powers without having the pause it every few seconds looks good.

I just wish the 360 version wasn't filled with technical problems. The framerate being the absolute worst.

Edit: Never mind, I made it past that part just before. That Krogan is tough

Mass Effect is staying a 360 exclusive right? Meaning no PS3 version? Can you answer that?

Obviously if you can say No its staying on the 360 and PC then thats all I want, if you cannot comment then you leave me and all the other 360 Mass Effect fans out there rather worried...

Spidery Yoda · 12-04-2008, 10:43 AM

It's PC and 360 only.

EAUK_Omni · 13-04-2008, 12:25 PM

I don't believe there are any plans to bring it out on PS3.

KnightFist · 13-04-2008, 12:39 PM

of course the prequel will come onto the ps3 mate

Spidery Yoda · 13-04-2008, 10:18 PM

The prequel?

The sequels are going to be 360 (and PC) only as well. It has been confirmed. Well, the first sequel is anyway, and so I doubt the 3rd game will be on the PS3 either.

Margelatu · 13-04-2008, 11:21 PM

Already played it on Xbox 360. A great game. Might get it for PC as well. If I get a new videocard that is.

Misunderstood Hero · 18-04-2008, 11:51 AM

I have it on 360 and finished it

Spidery Yoda · 19-04-2008, 11:03 PM

Well I finished it on Insanity

. That makes 4 playthroughs. The last boss on insanity took a long time.

General J Matrix · 27-04-2008, 11:37 AM

I hate these types of game with a passion. However, once Mass Effect was shown for the 360 I knew id really want to be playing it

So I got it anyway and enjoyed it! If the PC version should be ace too, is there any extra content??

Spidery Yoda · 28-04-2008, 01:20 PM

Not that I know of. Yet.

However, PC users will be able to download the 360's DLC "Bring Down the Sky" for free after the game is released.

Shame about the activation limit. I cancelled my pre-order and got Grid instead

Braidedheadman · 13-05-2008, 07:18 AM

^ True that!

All interest in this game (and Spore) evaporated the second I learned SecuROM's malware was being included in the package. And SecuROM's latest version is by far the worst I have ever seen. I've never before encountered such an open and blatant attack on consumer rights as what they are now trying to pawn off on the public. It has got to stop and I absolutely will not support it with my dollars.

No, I never really play PC game appart from Sims and a few others. Loved Mass Effect on my Xbox 360 though, fanstatic game!
