Mods for Mass Effect on PC? That'd be rather sweet.

I agree that the PC has more control options than a console.
I love lots of options in my games. Consoles dont give me that.

This is unsurprising. Both KOTORs and Jade Empire were (badly) ported to the PC so it only makes sense that Bioware would be porting another KOTOR-esque console RPG to the PC as well.

True, the PC game market LOOKS to be petering out a little, but the truth of the matter is that major development studios are realizing several (obvious trends).

1. Consoles = cheap
2. PCs = multifunctional, and with the right controls/hardware, easily matches a console for gaming capability.
3. Consoles are becoming a hell of a lot like PCs (actually more like Macs since you can't open them up).

Conclusion. Consoles ARE PCs (Wii excepted), except with slower browsers, no MS word, and a uniform hardware profile (making development easier).

So what to do? Develop console, port it to the PC, and let PC players either get used to Keyboard+mouse or buy a 360 controller and plug it in. Easy-peasy. MS wanted that by trying to port Live to PCs, but it failed on that part. It's succeeding on most other fronts since most genres that are PC-centric (RTSs, quirky point-click adventure games, flash, and FPSs) are now in the technical reach of most platforms. C&C3 and CoD4 are proof of that. The last steps are cross-platform multiplayer that actually works and decent MMOs.

Now that you think about it, that's the one good thing about the Phantom's basic concept. It came with a lap keyboard and mouse.

I've got it on the 360, so I won't be getting it for PC :-)

Oh Saren, such a rascal.
