Multiplat Mass Effect: Andromeda

[Mancey]

you would think, but the series has history of going with exclusive content deals.

Bioware in its current state who the **** knows.

Exclusive content would still be on the table, but the entire game? Thats a fantasy

 

[PerfectFooty]

Those people who have pre ordered on XBONE and PC are going to be disappointed.

I think that is highly unlikely somehow

Thanks, i'll let my mate know he was full of crap

Has a game ever gone from being an Xbox exclusive game to PlayStation or vise versa before?

Tomb Raider, well that was timed.

If anything PS4 will get DLC or something. no chance its a exclusive for anything other then DLC

As in an xbox exclusive in the development, then changed to a PS exclusive? Or an Xbox exclusive then multiplat?

Can't think of any of the former

If the latter its happened heaps of times...look no further than mass effect itself that was an Xbox/PC exclusive that took 5 years to get to PS

San Andreas took nearly a year to get to Xbox from PS2

I mean as in a game that was released an exclusive for one console then eventually in time became an exclusive for another.

I know Mass Effect first started out as an 360 (and possibly PC?) exclusive game then went multi plat. That's why I think it would be strange for ME:A to go PS exclusive.

 

[Millky95]

ME1 was 360 and PC only as it was published by Microsoft Game Studios. When EA got Bioware for ME2, it became 360 and PC first, with a PS3 port later. Then ME3 was all at the same time. The only way to play ME1 on PS3 was to buy the trilogy edition released after ME3

With EA being the publisher (and the Xbone having EA access) it won't be a PS4 exclusive.

No I cannot recall that ever happening

Outside of things like Final Fantasy and MGS going from Nintendo to Sony in the 90's I can't recall anything like that happening more recently.

There is absolutely 100% no way this game is exclusive on either console.
In fact it'll be 'released' first on Xbox One through EA Access.

Sony might have some exclusive content or release DLC first, but that'd be it.

New footage from the Playstation meeting today.
Just a tech video so no fighting, but it looks very pretty.
Next video is November 7.

Any footage is good footage

 

[Kickpuncher]

Have PS got the marketing rights to this?

 

[gaskin]

Can't wait for some proper game play footage.

 

[dwwaino]

That little crumb is all I needed. Reminded me of Vault of Glass though

Thank **** there didn't appear to be any complex jumping puzzles

They are jumping over some platforms that are forming. Hoping Rich doesn't struggle too much

just be aware that a tech demo is far from indicative of the final product.

Oh ****!

Jumping puzzles and the ****ing mako? Noooooooo!

Not building hopes up too much, but providing they have plenty of RPG elements outside of combat, I'll be very happy with this.

tech demos are far better performance wise then the finished product. so THAT wont be what the game looks like. tech demos are designed to push the technology to its limit, but running an actual game at those settings is just not possible. think of it like one of those concept cars, you never actually see that car in production.

 

[dwwaino]

Not a lot was happening in that video either. Can't wait to see some actual meat and potatoes gameplay. It's BioWare and Mass Effect so visuals are secondary to me. If they look shit hot that's a bonus but just to see a new video was great.

Oh irrespective of performance, snappy (but limited of course in the vid) gameplay with a cool (and perhaps slightly borrowed ) setting has me at least in the 'won't be a steaming pile of turd' camp. I'm not a massive performance whore, so if it's anything like the first two with current gen graphics I'll be satisfied.

Looks that way, im sure N7 day they will announce special editions and DLC and all the other crap to get pre orders.

 

[aussiedude]

Mac Walters revealed to PlaystationAccess that both Ryders shown are sibling and part of the game. He also revealed that the dude from the E3 2015 teaser was their father

 

[aussiedude]

I saw on twitter the Release date has been leaked from the art book.

March 21st 2017
