Mass Effect Coming to PS3?
Rumour has it that the sequel to the 360 exclusive Mass Effect and any subsequent titles will make their way to the PS3, as well as the Xbox 360 and PC, according to Second Story Gamer. A 'fairly reliable source' at Electronic Arts informed them that EA had decided to make the series multiplatform after acquiring the games developer Bioware.
The reason behind the possible multiple platform release comes down to the global financial crisis (doesn't everything?). EA wants to milk Mass Effect 2 for every dollar that it's worth. The rumour also suggests that a PS3 port of the original Mass Effect, currently an Xbox 360 exclusive, will be available from mid-2009.
The mysterious 'source' (we need Jack Bauer to slap it out of them) commented that the official announcement will "take place at [the] GDC", which is scheduled for March 23. Until then this is nothing more than rumour and speculation, but hey it looks as if Sony could finally be trying to match Microsoft in fighting for exclusives.
