Uilleand Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 http://masseffect.bioware.com/forums/viewtopic.html?topic=617397&forum=104 Announcement by BioWare...so it's real!!
Miltiades Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Just saw this five minutes ago. I've always wanted to play Mass Effect, and I didn't want to buy the X360 just for this game. Now, I don't have to! Here's the announcement on Yahoo.
stingerhs Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 very nice, but its rather pointless for me since i already have the game for the 360. still, at least it will be easier to snipe and pull of headshots by aiming with the mouse. i just wish Bioware was going to add something more to the PC version aside from an improved/optimized GUI (as stated in the announcement). if there's some nice mods out there, i'll probably pick it up eventually, but otherwise, its a rather moot point for me.
Uilleand Posted February 12, 2008 Author Posted February 12, 2008 Oh, I'm sure I'll buy it....just cuz I'm such a BioWare CrackWhore...*chuckle* I cannot WAIT for the oh-so-talented mod community to get hold of it! (I'm also very interested in having an improved inventory...*grrr*)
Bob Lion54 Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Awesome. We pretty much knew it was going to happen eventually, but it's cool to see an official announcement especially because of the release date. I thought about getting a 360, but since Mass Effect was really the only game that interested me, I decided it wasn't worth it. Now I get to finally play it in May. This make Bob Happy Lion. Announcement said: BioWare and EA are very pleased and proud to announce Mass Effect for the PC. This make Bob Sad Lion. I still can't get used to EA mentioned with Bioware... Oh well...
Jeff Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Excellent. Now lets just hope my rig can play it.
igyman Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Oh, yeah, I've always said PC is the only platform I'll ever need. Yeeeeeehaaaaaaaaawwwww!!!!!!
Jason Skywalker Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Words cannot express my happiness. "The game is will be released for the PC in May 2008."
JoeDoe 2.0 Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 I think I saw somewhere that Devil May Cry 4 will be coming out for PC also, but its cool that those who own PCs can play this awesome game too
mimartin Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 I can't wait. Oh wait, I didn't wait...Still I will buy it again for the PC. Very good news, now PC users will get to experence as Fox News described Mass Effect “Luke Skywalker meets Debbie does Dallas.”
Lance Monance Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 - This describes my current mood better than any words could.
HerbieZ Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 I already have it but im definately getting it for pc. Im gonna duel play it and go insane.
DeadYorick Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 W00t. I knew that Mass Effect would be another Kotor. Awesome news on Bioware's part. Awesome idea as well. Lets hope we can mod it
Jae Onasi Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Awesome news!! I'm really looking forwrd to this game.
Marius Fett Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Never played this TBH... I'll get it and try it.
Alkonium Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 *Prays to the game gods that his computers can run it* Would it be too nerdy, even for a Lucasforums member, to name my character Jack?
Uilleand Posted February 12, 2008 Author Posted February 12, 2008 No...not too nerdy...but be forewarnd...I already have "Jak" Shepard...LAWLZ... (I also hold the title Queen of all that is Nerd-dom and Dorkery)
Miltiades Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Uilleand said: No...not too nerdy...but be forewarnd...I already have "Jak" Shepard...LAWLZ... I'll call mine Alan Shepard. It fits!
Emperor Devon Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 Wow, this is only what, only three months after it was out for the 360? Remind me never to take BioWare seriously when they announce future titles as console-exclusive. (Not that I mind, of course, but I am somewhat worried for my health - playing Torment, BG2, Mask of the Betrayer and ME all within the span of eight months may cause me to implode from the awesome.) Jae Onasi said: Awesome news!! I'm really looking forwrd to this game. Despite Mask of the Betrayer sitting in a box right by your computer? For shame! Twenty lashes with a wet noodle! Your spelling is also terrible.
RedHawke Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 Oh boy! Another game to sit on my shelf and get dusty! (Still need to get The Witcher, and VTM Bloodlines) I am trapped in Stormreach... send platnium pieces!

Rogue Nine Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 Yaaaaaaaaaaaaay! I was thinking of picking up a 360 just so I could play this game and Assassin's Creed, but it looks like I won't have to. ;D
Char Ell Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 Dreams do come true!!! Hats off to BioWare and EA for working this out with Microsoft and for showing the love to the PC gaming community. Now where do I pre-order?
