Mass Effect 2 - Cumulative Thread

If you know how, what, and where to buy and sell online that offers maximum profit and you have good management skills, customer communication skills, packing skills, and the time required to do all this then you are set.

Otherwise leave it to me :P

You make it sound more complicated than it actually is. To me, it sounds like a piece of cake.
 
Re: Mass Effect 3 - Cumulative Thread

Could the PS3 handle ME2 ? It uses the full 512mb Ram of the xbox or close enough ps3 only has 256mb ?
 
Mass effect 2 on PC chews up more than 512mb I thought...

Either way, consoles suck. PC games would have a lot better graphics already if developers weren't limited by the stupid console platform.

the play station 3 is capable of better graphics then most PC's are, you have to spend over a grand on a gaming pc to get better graphics then a well done PS3 game

No you do not...

Any PS3 game that has a PC port will run maxed on a 5770 or GTS450 easy for $140 (PS3 games don't play at 60FPS, usually only 30). Get and AMD 3.0Ghz. tri core for $75, get 2GB of RAM for $50, 400watt PSU for $40, $45 HDD, and $70 motherboard.

Course you need a damn Windows licence as well but a $540 computer is easily more powerful. Also games released on the PC platform are cheaper so you save money that way.

No PS3 game has better graphics than a computer can and no console ever will as PC's are always leagues ahead for hardware.

Or that guy on gametrailers (Pachter?) who thinks that a PC costs 4000 dollars and a loan, But a PS3 is still more powerful :laughter:
 
What's wrong, PS3friends? Can't afford a superior machine called PEE CEE? LOL at people playing FPS games on consoles. :doh::tongue:
 
I have all 3 :P

Just been buying an xbox 360.

PS3 is good but i always seem to revert to the xbox and PC :P PS3 is really bad compared to the xbox in updates and software.

TRAITOR! :tongue:
 
I've never understood why people think that a gaming PC cost so much, especially since the PS3 was what? $600 when it game out, plus that doesn't include controllers and such that you need to play which can add up as well.

lrn2tech plz
 
What's up with all the hate towards consoles? People only make themselves look stupid by whining about how PC's are better in every aspect of gaming, same goes to those console players who diss PC.

I don't get your point. For me FPS games have been and are as enjoyable on both PC and X360.

i think he was referring to the fact that a mediocre player using a keyboard and mouse can beat the hell out of anyone using a controller, no matter how skilled that person is.

But what difference does it make? They are different platforms and people on different ones never play against each other (though I've heard Microsoft was planning something like this with PC/X360 but obviously controllers can't match mouse-keyboard in shooter games). Both have their pros and cons. Controllers work better for drinving and sports games while keyboard-mouse is better for games like RPG's and FPS's but that doesn't nescessarily mean that games are any less enjoyable on console or PC.
 
It's just someone saying that a console could ever have better graphics than a PC is complete and utter nonsense.

People also vastly overinflate the costs of PC gaming. I spent £500 on essentially a new machine a few weeks ago. Granted my monitor is low res at the moment but i'm confident it would look better than a console on a decent screen. A PS3 would cost about £275 here. Point people overlook is that the games on a console are far more expensive, so the price difference is really overstated.

If people prefer consoles or whatever, that's what they like, no issue. It's just daft when people go on ranting about how a console "outperforms" a PC when it's simply wrong.

As for the discussion of console RAM, it's always been low, because it doesn't need to be that high. It doesn't have to run a bloated OS for example, and it's going to be optimised to use only the graphics memory. That's the key thing that makes consoles able to keep up with budget gaming PCs. The fact that developers can heavily optimise instead of having to make sure it works for everything compentent under the sun.

Eh it was sarcasm.. sort of.

I would add that here in Estonia, the land of inflated electronics prices, a great gaming PC would cost about $700. Mine, which runs most games just fine (fine as in, same level or better graphics than a console) is more like $300. Meanwhile, a good PS3 setup would set you back $400-500, depending on the store.

And as for games, the average PC game costs around $60, while console games are $100...

One more thing, as far as the control issue goes, i like to use an X360 controller on my PC for 3rd-person games and sports and such.
 
I have to say Zaeed is the most bad ass mofo in any video game, esp with lady shepard in the team lol, played trough mass effect 2 again last night and Zaeed burning Vido was my favorite scene aside from the Shadow Broker mission.
