so i have 1 and 2 on the xbox 360. mass effect 3 is coming out soon.
I've been debating whether to get it on the PC instead.. and getting Mass Effect 1 and 2 on the PC as well.
who here has played both versions of either mass effect 1 or 2?
which do you prefer?

There is really no question, the PC version is the definitive version.
Yes, I have played both versions of both games.

I expect Mass Effect 3 to be massively (ha, ha,) disappointing. It seems deliberately contrived to just be another "go to each world in the order you want to GATHER ALLIES!"
Just like ME1. And Dragon age 1. And ME2. And every Bioware game since freaking NWN when Bioware went off the rails.

I'm going to get the 360 version, because I'm guessing EA is going to force you to use Origin if you get the PC version of ME3. And from what I've been reading here and from friends that have used it, Origin kind of sucks.

I respect that with DA2 they at least TRIED to make a game that wasn't structured around their now-familiar "go to four places and get four allies/items/etc to pwn the bad guy" model.
But they failed pretty hard.
I am not at all convinced they still have their story mojo left.
They have gotten slicker and slicker with the coat of paint but what's under the coat of paint has got cheaper and cheaper.

I have never played a video game with a good story. Some games have good stories when compared to other games, but none of them are actually good.
The only part of a video game story that really matters to me is flow. If the story keeps moving and I never disengage from both the story and gameplay to the point that I no longer want to play then the game succeeds.
If you look at Mass Effect 2's story academically and analyze the content then it is awful. But I played ME2 and did not get bored, it kept me wanting to play until I finished it so as far as I am concerned it is fine.
If anything Mass Effect 2 has a better story than a lot of games simply because it had a couple likable and reasonably well developed characters; that is pretty rare.
