Personally, I think it's a great "******** You!" for EA to be releasing Mass Effect 2 for the PS3. Originally, Mass Effect was an exclusive for the 360, keeping in mind that PC is released by Microsoft as well, which made it feel special because it was something you could only experience on the 360. Now they're blowing that completely out of the water and deciding to release it on the PS3, but with exclusive content!
My initial reaction was: "Okay, cool. Now I can talk about Mass Effect 2 with my friends with a PS3," but at that time all I knew was that the game was going to be re-released on the PS3. A few months later I read a little more about it and I found out that they get a new interactive comic to determine decisions that would've been made in Mass Effect 1. I thought that was cool and fair considering they didn't have it, so I let it slide.
I read a little more and I find out that they get to use the game engine designed for Mass Effect 3. This one just pissed me off. Why do they get to use the Mass Effect 3 engine while 360 owners are stuck with Mass Effect 2 engine? I'm not saying that the ME2 engine sucks but seriously, What The F**K? I also read that they will get all of the DLC available to 360 owners, which is fair, plus more to be released, What The HELL!?
Now I realize that I'm just trolling but EA just ticks me off, Bioware didn't want to release ME2 for the PS3 but EA pushed them to.
((All my info came from the Mass Effect Wikia.))

Damn EA, I paid for a lot of their stuff and they usually screw people over. They make awesome games then crap out the sequels. ME2 for PS3 is just like a Dragon Age: Origins Ultimate Edition. Mass Effect was a series exclusive for Xbox. I wouldn't mind letting PS3 users get ME but 360 users should get something in return. *cough Those PS3 exclusive games-FFXIV cough* Keep this up and we might as well hand the Halo franchise to the Sony as well, maybe that's why Microsoft bought the franchise or they might just sell it out like EA does.

I originally didn't care since, Mass Effect being an AMAZING franchise, how could you not want to share that?

But I feel getting THAT much extra content and game enhancement is absolute, well frankly, bullshit.

I hate this...I really hate this emo my friend has just been rubbing it in my face since he found this out but one thing i can remind him is that it's 20$ if you have playstation plus but 60$ if you don't which is hilarious because he used to have playstation plus until he falsely reported someone and his account that had it got deactivated

uuuhhh...ok...
Did you guy EVEN try the ps3 version of the game?
it looks more like the first game on crack with bad lightning...
textures aren't as good, the only thing I find better is that it is brighter...
And exclusive? Ya kidding right?
"Oh,a nice comic so I can make a few descisions for the first mass effect since I can't play it"
Come on, I bought the ps3 version, so far, it's gonna remain for my collection...All that was 360 DLC ooks like ya flying over a map of FF6 (ff3 on snes) so pixelized it is...

Both consoles have classics...
Let's not be fan boys or fan girls...
