Artemisthemp Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Source - http://www.joystiq.com/2012/01/25/pre-order-a-mass-effect-artbook-for-an-in-game-rifle-on-pc-or-xb/ Three games in, the true meaning of "Mass Effect" is revealed: it refers to the masses of stuff you're tempted to buy for in-game DLC. Joining the recently announced DLC-laden action figures is the "Art of the Mass Effect Universe" artbook, which includes a download code for "the collector's rifle, among other cool content to beat out your opponents" when pre-ordered from Barnes & Noble.The "collector's rifle" refers to the Collector Assault Rifle, described by artbook publisher Dark Horse Comics as a gun whose "power source appears to be an internal organ with biotic capacitance; its ammunition resembles pellets of metallic enamel that strip shields off enemies with deadly efficiency." Strangely, Dark Horse also specifies that the codes work only on PC and Xbox 360, so PS3 owners will get nothing for their book purchase but the book they purchased. First no DLC for PS3 to figure - http://www.ps3trophies.com/forums/mass-effect-3/10126-mass-effect-dead-me-part-deux-250-dlc.html and now no DLC to PS for Book Pre-order. Guess Bioware don't like PS3 anymore or Microsoft pay them a lot of Money to make it exclusive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreakon139 Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 For some reason I feel like it would be the latter (Microsoft paying for bonuses). Not only is it far from the first time that has happened, but most developers that dislike Sony or the PS3 usually wind up coming around... see: Valve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The PlayStation always SUCKS until the paycheck stops coming to the door. Then it's an "Oh, we were confused" press release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valve dislike Xbox, because they want money for free stuff (Mappack for L4D1&2) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreakon139 Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Valve dislike Xbox, because they want money for free stuff (Mappack for L4D1&2) They have a funny way of showing it. How about some L4D love on the PS3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
