OK, there seems to be some confusion out there. Gamers have taken a microscope to the code in the PC version of Mass Effect 2 , which they claim hints at an inevitable PS3 release due to some traces of PS3 sourcecide being found (some PS3 variables). Well, hate to break it to you, but it looks like that's not gonna happen.
Bioware's Chris Priestly hopped onto the forums to bring some balance to the Matrix. "The Unreal Engine is cross platform, hence the PS3 code," he said. "This was brought up back in Mass Effect 1days as well." 
So, there you have it. Priestly also added one last quote, to help drive the point home: "Mass Effect is for the PC and Xbox 360 exclusively and will remain that way."      
 

Sucks. Though hopefully they don't mean "forever", we all know that they claimed GTA IV episodes to be exclusive and now it's coming to both PS3 and PC.

I forget the last time Bioware made a game on a console other than a Xbox (Excluding PC). Has there ever been one? "

Ah well, it's a bummer that less people will be able to play Mass Effect 2 but I already have a PC so I wouldn't play it on PS3 anyway.

" @Pessh:Wrong, BioWare didn't make that. Nice try though :-P "

I think a "Mass Effect Trilogy" on a single Blu-ray is more likely to happen and at this point the most logical.
 
Also the problem is that in the "exclusivity agreement" with Microsoft there is a big "You are not allowed to say it is a timed exclusive" 
 
This trilogy blu-ray would be something I would personally buy though I already have the games on PC, especially if they throw in some extra's. (E.g. all the DLC)

Exclusives are so fucking stupid.

The reason to own both systems, right here. But I suppose it sucks if you ain't got the monies.

Isn't exactly news to anyone.

Let me shed a tear for the PS3 gamer:
 
*hurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrkkkkk*  *drip*
 
There.  :-) 

It gives me a reason to still own a 360 so i don't mind, last year was horrible for it when it comes to exclusives. Some good stuff coming this year though.
 
Sucks for people with only a PS3 that are not PC gamers. The more people that play this awesome game the better, it's so good. However I find it very hard to believe that it will stay exclusive, surely a time-exclusive, it's EA after all.

I don't remember the same runoff in the ME days and I am no expert, so I may be wrong, but since when shit about Paragon and Renegade points are part of the UE?

Also, God, they made so many mistakes and misspokes with that PS3 version that I won't believe until I won't see it.

Who are these mythical people that are willing to pay $60 for a game but refuse to drop $200 on a console?

You'll get over it, don't worry.

I dont really care. Got them for the Xbox right now. Im glad though that I have all the consoles, and that I can buy all the games that I want per month :D But it took me some time to get here, so, It kind of pays off after all those days of hard work.

" @Nictel:  They just said that it is not going to the PS3. "

I'm not sure why anyone thought a Microsoft exclusive franchise was ever going to wind up on a Sony system in the first place.

Did you just claim Bioware didn't make Dragon Age? You should really send them an email and tell them that they didn't, they're going to feel pretty bloody stupid about hosting the games website. "

But didn't you just see it in that link? How are you supposed to see it other than that? "

EA likes money. It'l happen, just not as soon as everyone would like.

I don't know anyone who doesn't have a PC or 360 with their PS3. The only people who are disappointed are Sony fanboys.
 
First, Mass Effect 1 has to come out for the PS3 before people talk about GOTY, Mass Effect 2, comes out for PS3.

that does suck. good game and hope it does eventually come out everywhere so everyone can enjoy it. hate exclusives *sob* uncharted 2 *sob*

hah

Mass Effect 2 ISN'T coming out for the PS3? My god who could have seen this coming . . .
 
The next series of ME games will be Multiplat but if you even thought for a second that this was going to come out of the PS3 you need to start paying attention to what the company is saying, before Mass Effect was even released it was made very clear this was a Microsoft Exclusive title, nothing is going to change that until ME3 comes out.

I think an important thing to look at is who published the first Mass Effect. Namely Microsoft Game Studios. In contrast GTA IV and Fallout 3 both were initially released on both platforms simultaneously with the DLC being the exclusive content. So, at least for the forseeable future Mass Effect isn't going to be coming to the PS3. I too wouldn't rule out some "Mass Effect Collection" in three or four years but it's going to be awhile.
 
I also wouldn't believe anything that corporate PR says. Remember that Sony denied that they were ever going to make a slim PS3 or PSP Go until the moment they announced them acting like they were the biggest surprises ever. Even though people had been talking about them for weeks.
