Face-Off: Mass Effect on PS3

EuroGamer: "Five years on, Mass Effect is still a good-looking game - it's more refined on PlayStation 3 but it's missing motion blur and anti-aliasing."

It doesn't matter because it doesn't affect he gameplay while in motion and you wouldn't even notice; as a matter of fact, the 360 version looks fuzzier when you slow it down, but again, when in full motion, you probably won't notice that, either.

That's called Motion-blur, lol.

pixelsword4834d ago (Edited 4834d ago )

No, it's fuzzier when images of the game that have no motion blur applied are viewed.

That's called fuzzy images, lol.

I've played through mass effect on the 360 atleast 5 times. I've played about 7 hours on the ps3 now and my opinion is the ps3 version is better. Loading times are pretty close to the same, the graphics look cleaner and the framerate does drop a little but nowhere near as bad as the 360 version.

Good to know. Definitely picking up trilogy, but was waiting to see which version to get. Thanks!

nukeitall4834d ago

One thing that isn't mentioned is content wise, the PS3 version will never get Pinnacle Station DLC. Apparently it is due to corrupted source code.

Bummer. So if you want the best version, PC is it with all the DLC and all the performance your PC can handle.

I was going to wait for the Digital Foundry report on the Mass Effect PS3 port, but gave in and bought it, (was only $15). Overall I'm happy to of just got to be able to play the first game, (I only own a PS3). It's not even funny though how the first is far greater then the other two installments IMO, but that's another topic...

I wonder though, if having a SSD installed into your PS3 would vastly improve the performance/loadtimes like it did with Gran Turismo 5.

I expected nothing and I'm still disappointed

Like with Fallout, it's starting to feel studios are using TV / Film adaptations when they have no game info to talk about.

toxic-inferno121d ago

I feel the same way.

I mean, how difficult would it be for them to release SOMETHING of substance? Another short trailer? A couple of proper hints? A short story set during the original trilogy, but focused on fringe characters?

Hopefully they're working so hard on the game that they don't have time. But still, with every passing year and so little to show, the franchise will be slipping further and further from people's minds.

Profchaos121d ago

Yeah agree it's almost a cop out since Dev times are 5 to 10 years just throw out a few seasons instead you get them done in a year

jznrpg121d ago

I still haven’t beat Andromeda. I am waiting for a lull of good games in my backlog

P_Bomb121d ago

So the TV show will take place after the OG trilogy. I wonder which ending they’ll use?

Rebel_Scum121d ago

Should’ve just posted a picture of an Elcor saying “regretfully, we have nothing to share.”

Good games but no Phantasy Star?

merlox1016d ago

Why do people forget Phantasy Star? That is one of my favorite RPG series. Another ther good but overlooked series is ,Y's.

anast1016d ago

ES3 set things off, it's a shame they got greedy and decided to cut corners so the executives could get huge pay days.
