Anyone else have this problem? WHAT problem you ask? Well, let me explain...

I bought Mass Effect 3 the day it dropped to $19.99 which was like the first week it came out. Well I played Mass Effect 2 and I love the Mass Effect series. Problem is, I played Mass Effect 2 on the PC and I beat it multiple times. Well there are a few choices I made in Mass Effect 2 that obviously cannot translate into my PS3 version of the game and I HATE that! So I refused to beat Mass Effect 3 until I beat Mass Effect 2 on PS3. That way it plays to the choices I made!

Sooooo, I just ordered Mass Effect 2 and it should be here by Tuesday. Now I can beat it and go back to play Mass Effect 3. :)

I know it sounds funny but it's what I love about the Mass Effect series. You are held accountable for every choice you make, good or bad!

Didn't they give a DLC for alternate ending on one of the ME games ? Seem to remember it being ME3 after loads of complaints


Anyway, I DEMAND you finish it :p

They only made the endings longer, not a alternate ending.

Yeah, the Child is still there, but Bioware added some more stuff about what happens after the end. I guess it's the best we'll have.

Except on the little things like you know... the ending of the entire series. It basically does not matter what you did, you are given the same two or three crappy choices.

That's my opinion, of course.

I didn't finish it because the game is boring. I guess I'm probably one of the few people out there who feel that way though. ME took me the better part of 2 years to finish and ME1 I played for about 2 weeks straight.

Why did you buy it for the PS3 when you've been playing it on the PC?

Why didn't you wait a month and buy the trilogy?

I didn't think the ending was that bad. Not the best, but what game has a great ending? Most of them are crap.

I lost my saves before ME3 but fortunately the save editor thingy worked. Downloaded someone elses save and went to work on it.

I started the series in Mass Effect 1 on the 360 and transitioned to PC so I know how you feel. It was kind of amusing playing ME2 without my choices from ME1 but ME3 with them.
