Rumor: PS3 Version of Mass Effect 2 Includes DLC, New Mission [UPDATED]

[Sparrow]

Also included is an interactive comic which is either called "Dark Horse," or by Dark Horse...

BY Dark Horse, don't you people have Google?

Wow. Really? We're going to call Microsoft douchebags because they won't let Sony have a game they published on the PS3? I mean, damn, how can Microsoft be so greedy when Sony and Nintendo love to share? I mean, right now I'm playing Super Mario Galaxy 2 on my PS3, and then I was going to go play some Uncharted on my Wii.

[HEADING=1]Oh wait.[/HEADING]

Microsoft isn't being a douchebag, they're just doing what every other console maker does: not sharing the games they have publishing rights to with the competition. The real douchebags are people who think Microsoft is doing something outrageous by not handing out free copies of Mass Effect to PS3 owners. Maybe they should share some Gears of War and Halo while they're at it.

This man, don't listen to him. After all, the opinions on the website are fairly placed and not bias in any way.

I'm just going to mention that the PS3 is NOT getting an exclusive mission. They are only getting the DLC, (that the other two platforms have available), bundled with the disc.

Ahhh, awesome, I'm glad to hear this. This is why I haven't bought the DLC, in inticipation of them putting on the PS3 disc. Definitely getting this now.

eeeees good day to be ps3 gamer

Fanboy be trolling a bit.

not quite, it's just that xbox failed me too many times

I admit it's an excellent console with great support and great games.... it just doesnt last long, at least mine didnt

 

[darkdots]

Someone said they got stuff in Mass Effect that better than Play Boy, so my parents won't let me play it. idk, maybe one of my friends has it.

I think its safe to say I will definetly pick this up, maybe not straight away but after a while. If I pick it up straight away it might affect my exams at the end of january, but when thems over, I'll probably get this.

And I see alot of people complaining about not porting the first one as well on the thread. But even if they did, I'd still only buy this one. Sequels are usually better, and this one comes with enough extras (maybe anyway) that its probably worth the price of 2 games but I doubt it will be all that expensive.

For the love of God people, READ THE ORIGINAL POST. THERE IS NO NEW DLC.

Also, the reason ME1 wont be gracing the PS3 is not because of Bioware, it's the same reason you wont see any of the current Halo games on the PS3 = Microsoft owns the rights to them.

 

[Super Toast]

I've already got it on the PC, so meh.

 

[DustyDrB]

They should have just ported both games. Microsoft are a bunch of douchebags.

I still don't get it why they can't just port the original Mass Effect over to the PS3, instead of creating entire new sections for Mass Effect 2 that the Xbox and PC players will miss out on

because of micro$oft's lil' whiny bitching

please refer to this article:

That's really fucking stupid. Start with giving ps3 owners Mass Effect 1, then talk about super special awesome dlc.

They are a business. Why would Microsoft give one of their better exclusive titles to their biggest competitor, thereby increasing the chance that Mass Effect 3 wouldn't be bought for the Xbox 360?

So.... uh..... Bioware, how about some new DLC for Mass Effect 2? You were pumping them out or at least giving updates about what to expect at a pretty constant pace. Now there is barely a trickle of information.

 

[v3n0mat3]

I definitely am buying this when it comes out. Good thing I just rented ME2.

It was my understanding that the Shadow Broker DLC was the last ME2 DLC. Do you really want another random weapon pack or pointless change of clothes?
and of course there is limited ME info right now seeing as Bioware is busy preparing for Dragon Age 2's release in the spring.

No I don't really one of those bullshit weapon packs, however I didn't hear the rumor that Shadow Broker was the last one. If that's the case it would be a shame.

If you actually read the post in the forums, it has been edited to say that the DLC is not actually "new" or "exclusive." It just says that the DLC that all 360 and PC owners had to pay for will be on the PS3 version for free.

So it's basically like a Game of the Year edition, right? So why all the moaning that a year-old rerelease includes all the DLC available for it?

As a recent BioWare convert thanks to Dragon Age, I'm looking forward to ME2 on the PS3. While I'm sure I'll miss out not playing ME1, the 360 doesn't have any other exclusives that appeal to me to justify picking one up, and I can't really afford the time and money to rig my PC for gaming.

 

[BaldursBananaSoap]

I'm just wondering how long this comic will be. It better not be a five minute "LOLREAPERS AND SHIT NOW MAKE A FUCKING DECISION" but a proper portrayal of the ME1s story to set the scene for ME2.

Basically, yes. But there is still more DLC to be released for Mass Effect 2, so it's not all of the DLC ever, which isn't a GOTY, it's just a bundled package.
