  • If i buy this on PSN, will i STILL be able to have this comic and everything that is in the retail version? please answer.

  • I have a bit of a conundrum. I have ME 1 and 2 for PC but due to EA's Origin, I don't want to get ME3 for PC. Should I get ME3 for my PS3 instead? I'd hate to loose my progress in ME2 though I suppose I could buy it again cheap for PS3.

  • hey can someone tell me where is the comic thing cause i got the game and download the comic but can't find it

  • @Zerokola1 either in your temp folder or your downloads folder

  • uhhh what about the geth....

  • I always saved Ashley.

  • Wow they made the rachni seem shitty, I remember that moment in the base was pretty intense. Saving them felt like the right decision.

  • I'm glad they did this for the PS3 players. I played the first ME on my friend's Xbox, and really wanted to play ME2 (and ME3) but make my own "major decisions" on my PS3. It does leave out some things, but overall I like how I wasn't stuck with the shitty default decisions.

  • how do i get this on ps3

  • I didn't get this on my first playthrough, just the second. Could I have skipped it?

  • @miyandere

    Did you download the Genesis DLC between playthroughs?

  • @MareTranquil Nope, I don't even have that. But I did download the trial first and that may be why I didn't get the intro.

  • I always wondered what the comic looked like. Kinda interesting, but it does leave out other major plot options to be carried over into ME2 and ME3

  • I remember saving the council, just to tell them to where to stick their spectre offer at the start of the next game. Hilarious dialogue.

  • Imagine if they included every major conversation tree from the first game. There's 6 hours of gameplay right there.

  • @mactavishc you don´t really thing every conversation tree matters for ME2?

  • @mactavishc sounds good to me.

  • @jpowers55

    Huh. I got a top comment. People usually resent my opinion.

  • Comment removed

  • why did they even bother putting mass effect on ps3 if they dont get the first game its pointless u dont get to see the whole story shoulda kept it on pc and xbox and no im not sayin this cuz i dont like ps3 im just sayin it dosent make sense

  • @ARavingLooony because EA saw it as a cash in

  • @ARavingLooony it still is on pc and xbox. tehe

  • Can someone please tell me whats the name of the theme/song that starts at 05:37?

  • So disappointed with this. I finished Mass Effect 2 before playing the first (2nd on PS3 and 1st on PC) and when I used this I found many things left-out which I wanted.

    Some of the things I can remember are:

    -The classified Geth evidence for Tali.

    -Allowing Shiala to live or die.

    -Arresting Analeis.

    Many more things that effect Paragon/Renegade. I wanted every Paragon option from the first (well, the important ones that effect the story) in the 2nd :\

  • Pls..can anyone tell me how u get the comic genesis,,,does the code come with the game?.....

  • Comment removed

  • They should have this for Mass Effect 2 shortly after the third's release. Some people would like that. Only in the ME2 comic, could they allow you to choose who died on the suicide mission?

  • 0:32 Shepard's planking?

  • I had reach, But she had flexibility...

  • and that guy who got killed in eden prime ?

  • THAT'S how they drew Garrus? WHAT!?

  • I hope they release this comic alongside a mass effect 2 one for new comer's to the series.

  • @Thunder88 I just wish he would show me some of that fancy flying when he so rudely claimed to be in the "middle of some calibrations."

  • No what, I may own the games for the Xbox, but come on Microsoft, just give EA the rights to the first game so they can port it over to the PS3, everyone deserves to play through the whole thing.

  • can you have a romance in this comic

  • Wtf? They literally gave the Rachni Queen 3 lines and a panel, and expect you to go off of that? This really just did the first game no justice.

  • @ultrahero2115 To be fair though, this comic was for people playing ME2 that hadn't played ME1. Since the Rachni Queen didn't have any impact at all in ME2, it really didn't need more than one panel in the comic.

  • They gave the queen 3 lines and a panel, and expect you to go off of that?

  • Lol@ 11:04. Garrus' calibrations grant him the ability to fly.

  • Comment removed

  • Shepard is a good narrator

  • does anyone know if these are the default option choices?

  • what happened to the feros mission?

  • SAVE THE RACHNI QUEEN! It'll be helpfull if needed :)

  • I agree, dont listen to all the 360 fanboys, I actually think PS3 players should get the chance to play ME1, it was really worth it. This comic book filler does not do the first game justice.

  • Will this come with Mass Effect 3? I never played ME2, though I did beat the first game.

  • You killed the Rachni Queen? That was one of my greatest regrets! Good think I had atleast 1 character were I let her live.

  • 0:56 a good kid?? kaidan is older than shephard

  • mass effect is one of the best reasons to own an xbox

  • It's great and all that Bioware threw this in for the PS3 players but I feel like playing the first Mass Effect is much much better than just watching a comic intro. You get to make more decisions and it kinda answers those questions that people might have while they're watching this intro. I personally prefer just playing the first Mass Effect so I can experience the entire thing instead of from a comic intro.

  • Tali looks so terrible ha.

  • 11:09 - Garrus never learned that move in the PC version...

  • @CalculusKid im pretty sure that he cant even use pistols well.

  • how do you get this on me2?

  • @Kratsxx123 It's DLC.

  • @MCLindemann i looked in dlc but still cant find it.

  • @Kratsxx123 Did you try looking in-game? Through the Cerberus Network? The DLC is called "Genesis". It should be in there.

  • @MCLindemann i thinks its because i bought the game used and dont have the cerberus network code.

  • "It was massive.." Thats what she said

  • One question:

    WHY THE HELL IS GARRUS GREEN?!?

  • @JohnnyD33re " you humans are all racists " xD

    IDK but if you don't listen to shep you won't notice he "is" garrus...like me

  • @JohnnyD33re " you humans are all racists " xD

    IDK but if you don't listen to shep you won't notice he "is" garrus...like me

    (sorry for my english if i wrote anything wrong)

  • whats a thoren?

    lol XD

  • That was a very good comic. And while only scratching at the surface, did a good job getting my PS3 friend into ME2 and actually understood what the hell was going on.

  • im so happy i had a xbox 1st :]

    now i can play it on my ps3 an enjoy it

  • Kaidan... "a good kid"? He's three years older than Shepard. Lolz. Still, good stuff.

  • True. So fucking awesome when you become a Spectre.

    True. Doesn't capture half of Mass effect's awesomeness.

    Fact. It's always being Liara. Everything else is just absurd.

    Also true. Male Shep sounds great here. Mass effect not so much. But most voices weren't great there. Remember the final mission and the disagreement about the landing? Totally comical and not convincing.

  • I really wish this had been in the 360 version. Awesomely done. Glad the PS3 has this, at least.

  • This voice is starting to feel/sound so damn epic to me. Seriously, nearing Kevin Conroy (for those who know his biggest character).

    By the way, lots of shivers when hearing the ME1's music again. ME2 was the best game I've ever played, but the impact and the feeling mass effect 1 had for me was, to me, unprecedented.

  • sorry ps3 fans but this is nothing like playing in the universe of me1

  • Insta goosebumps of the music starting at 4:20. Mass Effect <33333

  • Good thing I'm not far through it. Haha...

  • Now I'm ganna restart my whole game because I didn't watch this. Dammit... xD thanks for showing me

  • @Ubernet67 yeeeees everyone dieeees!!!! xD

  • Now imagine had Shepard not pulled his/her squad mate out of the Prothean Becon beam and never saw that vision...

  • I would not save ashley to be honest she is a little *****

  • Why couldn't Mark Meer act like this in the actual game?

  • soooo litle choices , woudhave been better if sony let me1 pc save to use on ps3 , much much better .

  • WHERES FEROS!!!

  • 1600 mp, there gonna put this in mass effect 3.

  • You killed the Rachni Queen?

    Well you're screwed. XD

  • you killed the rachni queen T___T

  • They leave so much out, didn't even mention the geth and their history, so PS3 owners are going to be quite confused in ME2 when they recruit Tali and do her loyalty mission.

  • @clansing93 I agree, they should at least look into the first game, pther than looking at this.

  • 6:31 Killed Queen ? Damn , you dont know anything about MS1 , i completed MS1 and save her life . :/

  • This is when is Shepard in coma ( before Cerberus fixed him ) .

  • Really nicely done, I was wondering how they would intro ME2 on the PS3.

    To those saying they missed out a lot, that's true but then again this is 14 minutes in and the new player hasn't even got to the first true intro of the game. I mean you've got to balance story with gameplay.

  • Thanks for sharing this!:)

  • so i assume all those minor choices, like helping some mob leader in Citadel, Feros, taking interview from annoying woman, giving photo and signature to a fan, etc. wont have impact on PS3 mass effect 2? i just hope they gave us a list of all variables...

  • @KuhoinX not for the PS3 version

    sorry dude

  • the best sci-fi trilogy since the original star wars

  • I really hope they do something like this for ME3. I don't have my saved playthrough(s) left.

  • Wow. They left SO MUCH out: The geth (except two screenshots), 95% of the game's characters, feros, the salarian special tasks group, ALL the emotional impact of the first game, Joker, Cerberus, and the final boss battle against the husk version of Saren. I pity anybody who can only play ME2 on PS3.

  • @RevolverOcelot1964 dude they can still play ME on pc (like me) the story is not a big deal yet i do want to be able to modify all possible variables from ME, this kind of "import" is just ...so incomplete

  • @RevolverOcelot1964

    I've played ME1 and i thought this comic was pretty cool, and no other version has it

  • @RevolverOcelot1964

    And its the worst comic iv'e ever seen.

    LOOK AT WREXS FACE!

    LOOK AT IT!

  • @RevolverOcelot1964 yeah but they had to try to sum it up, if they had kept everything it would have been to long

  • @RevolverOcelot1964

    Indeed they did. The reason for that is because they only put the questions in that influence the story of the sequel.

    In my opinion it was superbly executed. Although I would never substitute the first ME for a shortened comic; however it suits my purpose much more, because I don't need to replay an entire game to have the result I would've wanted in the sequel.

  • @ElDuorPaso I see your point, but at the same time the comic leaves out some things that do have a lot to do with the second game. Like I said before, the comic never really explains what the Geth are, what Cerberus did during ME1, or who Joker is. Basically, the primary audience for this comic was the people who never played the first, but it seems best suited for people who know the basic plot already and don't want to play the entire first game again.

  • @RevolverOcelot1964

    Yea exactly! And since I had already played the first game it would be time consuming to do it all over again.

    But like you said it does leave a lot of the story out, which made you want to really really play the sequel, which is why I said I'd never substitute it, but given the circumstances it is forgivable. I love the Mass Effect universe, and cannot wait to start reading the novels. Probably pick up the comics too! Never read a comic in my life.

  • CRAP someone tell me how I can get this

  • 2:35 "This is an outrage!"

  • what idiot what have chosen to kill wrex in the comic? i can get it in the game if you didnt have high speech skills, but they shouldnt even have an option to kill wrex! he's too badass!

  • @doctorishannay dude, i apologize so bad.... but your mom sucks!

  • The only reason Ibought ME2 for Xbox was because the PS3 does not have ME1. That's a fact.

  • this makes me wanna play ME (1 or 2) so bad.

  • how the fuck do you get the comic?

  • @infinityblablabla Buy the ps3 version and play the game

  • ight can anyone tell me if u can import ur 360 shepard to the ps3 my xbox broke got the ps3 and now im just hoping i can do this ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED

  • @Killahpriest35 that won't work sorry

  • @AcidFlashback321 danm well thanks for the info guess i got to do the comic thing :( and change my guy

  • this might sound really stupid but... I just got the game and I can't seem to find the comic. I started the game and nothing happened, is it in extras or do you have to download it?

  • Sorry but I did not had the whole comic at all. I've downloaded every free thing from PSS. And I;ve installed every freaking thing on the disc and still I did not got this option.

  • why did they skip the FEROS mission?

    didn't they need the CIPHER?

  • Kaiden or Ash?

  • My friend got this for his PS3. He told me every choice he made, I still felt like he was incomplete. But this is pretty darn cool, especially for someone who's already got it for 360, so they could just sort of transfer their Shepard over to the PS3 one.

  • + Ashley's a bitch. Kaidan's the coolest character next to Garrus

  • @MrSweatyDrummer If your playing male Shepard Kaidan gets pretty gay with you on Horizon, and then the Illusive man asks if you've put your past relationships behind you =\

  • what the feck? dieck! killed Rachni queen!! The rachni were indoctrinated!! =[

  • I have got the ps3 version but I don't know how to access this. I have downloaded the cerberus pack thingy, that was when I was about half way through the story. I have now finished the story and I want to know how to do this

  • @starandscour I know!!! same thing here!

  • @Palmar3s I found out how to do it now, just start the game again and it just comes up after the opening

  • this is garbage. misses on a bunch of story stuff. ps3 has failed mass effect.

  • @DarthQball dude, it hits all the main points. if they put in everything you want, this comic intro would be really long. as someone who has played ME1, of course this can't compare to that experience. but after i sold my 360, getting ME2 for ps3 was my only solution and this served well as a refresher.

  • that was interesting. "sigh" I wish ME1 was for ps3 though....I played both Me1&2 on 360, but then my 360 broke (and not just for the first time) so I switched to the ps3. I'm getting ME2 but damn I wish I could get ME1 for ps3.

  • @piflan I feel your pain - I played through ME1 & ME2 on the 360, and then I got ME2 for the PC to play through it again with some DLC this time around, it was pretty.... weird. "Oh, I left those for dead? But they were pretty nice guys! Wait, she's dead? But I kind of liked her! I pointlessly left alien politicians to die? Fye! I picked UDINA?! But he's a *Removed by the C-Sec Censorship management division*!

  • any PS3 owners who haven't played the original game better get it on PC ASAP

    i shit u not

  • ME1 was a great game and all but a lot of it was anoying

  • I'm a 360 gamer and am very disappointed in this intro. It skip Feros and made the rachni look evil. They weren't evil, the soldiers you fight are frenzied they aren't attacking because they are ordered.

  • how the fuck do u acces this? i never got this commic thingie it just made decisions for me thats fucking gay how can i get this?

  • I think everyone deserve to play Mass Effect it the best sci- fi game

  • They forgot Feros, sucks for PS3 users

  • 30+ hours of ME1 wrapped up into 15 minutes of lameness for ps3?  Fail. Doesn't replace actually going through ME1 with YOUR Shepard. The definitive Mass Effect experience remains on the PC and XBOX 360.

  • @integrals1983 obvious fanboy is obvious

  • @TH3L4GH1NGM4N How is he a fanboy when he's telling the truth. This 14+min video pales in comparison to the 30+hours of playing through ME1. You must be the fanboy, cause trying to talk a PS3 fangirl is like trying to get pandas to mate in captivity.

  • @larrym5150 you insignificant speck of shit, this game is called MASS EFFECT 2. the simple fact that we ps3 owners get this comic strip is a bonus. go jack off to your xbox you faggot, cause it'll be getting pretty lonely with the lack of exclusives this year. jog on.

  • @MegaDingdongs I was trying to compare that a 15 min video doesn't compare to a 30+hour game. But since you're so fucking stupid, you didn't see the point, you pencil dick cocksucker. I own both consoles and I'm not some jackass fangirl waving Sony pom poms. There's a website name N4G.com for you to go and join all of your Sony boyfriends at, so you can all sit around in a circle jerk with tweezers jacking each other off, and fisting each other at the same time.

  • Comment removed

  • @MegaDingdongs So go put on that Sony cheerleader outfit, put your g string on backwards, put your hand in Sony's backpocket, and be a good little Sony whore. Ps3 fangirls are the most annoying sacks of shit in the world. Go play some fucking Haze you dumbass.

  • Why would you kill the Rachni Queen? Why would you save Ashley over Alenko? Why would you save the dickheads at the council? Ehh...

  • @Grzesiekarator EXACTLY what I chose every playthrough of ME1 haha. Also, as for the comic, it's alright. Still doesn't even compare to actually playing ME1, but I guess it did an alright job of summing up the main storyline for those that never got a chance to play it.

  • LoL, a conspiracy of LAME.

    I challenge you to find a single comic video where Liara is NOT chosen.

    Thumbs down for being unique and original.

  • What shitty decisions

  • Seems like the male voice actor has really stepped his game up. I can't wait to see what preformances await in ME3.

  • @LightningNC Agreed... He did better in Lair of the Shadow Broker too.

  • this probably is as good as anyway to start of ME2 for PS3 players I just wish the the voice acting and dialogue wasnt so melodramatic about it

  • It's a shame that PS3 users won't get to hear Sovereign's speech. It was epic. And why no mention of Feros?

  • @rj92795 No major plot decisions to make during the mission to Feros.

  • @rj92795 Yeah, that speech Sovereign gave was actually kind of spooky. I had my bass up and his voice was rumbling my front room.

  • his voice acting has got alot better the past year

  • This is pretty cool, but it can't beat actually playing ME1. 8D

  • @DirecterMwames hell yha one of the best games of all time.

  • @DirecterMwames I know people who would disagree with you.

    Then again, they're the same people who pay others to level characters for them on WoW, then go on raiding at 85 to be all "leet".

  • @Quikraptor Preferring the comic over the actual game? That's ridiculous, but you're probably right...

  • @DirecterMwames unfortunatley microsoft own the rights to ME1 so they couldn't port it over to the ps3, this is a nice compromise though i think.

  • @DirecterMwames Oh hell yeah, one of the best games ever.

  • @DirecterMwames I agree... ME1 is better in some aspects that it's successor

  • I played both ME1 and 2 on the PC and was wondering how ME2 would start in PS3. The interactive comic providing dialogue choices to the player is actually really cool.
