Mass Effect 2 on PS3
There was news today that Mass Effect 2 will be the first complete multi platform game to get released on the PS3 and on pc/xbox, but will mass effect 2 make it onto the playstation 3?
Despite multiple sources we dont think mass effect 2 will make it onto your home ps3 – the thing that makes it so easy to port games like masseffect 1 and mass effect two to xbox from pc is the fact they are running the same architecture – the xbox is effectively bill gates flogging another mobo in a different case, adapted for the home user. The Sony PS3 is built on some crazy architecture and so takes a whole different programmer to build for it. Its not impossible though and no doubt some studio will pull it off soon – but will it be bioware? Another indicator that its unlikely is the fact you can preorder pc and xbox versions of the game already, alas there is no ps3 version available.
So although doubtful that mass effect-2 will make it to the ps3 it wouldnt be the weirdest thing to happen in the computer games industry – so watch this space – as soon as we have any news about a playstation release we will post it here.
it always surprises me game companys will agree to have there game one just one console. mybe mass effect will be ported to ps3 just like gta was for the xbox but not for a long time.
though its very clever what microsoft have done, as games such as mass effect, gears of war, halo ws the reason i bought my x360
yeah tbh x360 ftw untill final fantasy 13 comes out
