Bioware released Mass Effect 2 this week for the PS3. Now, there are a few minor technical differences between the 360 and PS3 version, but one difference is blaring. There is currently no way to carry over your save game from ME1 to ME2 on the PS3 because ME1 does not exist on the PS3. The folks at Bioware decided to attach an interactive motion comic to copies of ME2 PS3 in order to help players customize their experience. Does Kaiden live? Do you save Wrex or plug him? Who do you romance?
[Editors Note: For those that have a subscription to Playstation Plus, you can currently download the full Mass Effect 2 game and play 60 min for free. Enough time to enjoy the comic in full interactive HD glory!]
I was all set to write an article about how excited I was about the Google Marvel comics app when I discovered that Matt was already working on one. Instead I’ll tell you a tale of how I started collecting comics, and the dark dark day that I stopped.
Aerial stunts, extreme stage combat, moving sets, brilliant costumes, and $65,000,000 (yep, that’s sixty-five MILLION dollars) later and you get a musical production of the beloved comic hero, Spiderman. The most expensive musical ever to be produced on Broadway. Musical Schmucial, is it Nerd Appropriate worthy? Well let’s consider the facts.
I woke up this morning to my usual routine… roll out of bed, stumble around…

I was wondering how they were going to handle this. It seemed to me that starting cross platform support in the middle of the series was kind of silly, and PS3 only players wouldn’t get the full experience. This is better than nothing, but I’ll gladly continue playing on the 360.

I watched this on the way to work this morning and have to admit it was really well done… and… more Jennifer Hale.
