Speaking of downgrading next-gen games, here's another concept to chew on: BioWare's Miles Holmes says that the developer is considering bringing Mass Effect, Dragon Age and Jade Empire to the DS. In fact, he also mentioned that Sonic Chronicles was a specific effort in hopes of getting BioWare's handheld division off the ground.
Holmes specifies that he would want to see Mass Effect on the DS the most out of all the franchises, also mentioning that the studio has a lot of plans for the series. For me, Mass Effect is another one of those titles that, like BioShock, I prefer to play in all its high-res glory, but I can't say I wouldn't be interested to see what a DS incarnation might look like. Thoughts?

I'm betting no more character creation, map travel is down graded, of course, story stream-lined, and how about also cocks.
Still I'd be more interested to see a KOTOR come to DS before a newb like Mass Effect.
Thing is it was just jokes X(
Do you think that Mass Effect in it's last format is really a good game platform for DLC?
In Oblivion where the world is a sandbox, when you're done you can still wander around and as such you can explore the world and the DLC with your character as you left off. In Mass Effect, when you finish the story, you're done, done. You have to start from scratch and go through the entire storyline again in order to experience the DLC.
It just seems to me that a linear story like Mass Effect doesn't mesh up with the DLC concept in the same manner. I wonder if they can figure out a way to make it just as accessible.
I'm just curious as to your thoughts.
