This is an amazing deal. For the price of 1 game, you're basically getting one of the greatest video game trilogies ever created.

No excuse whatsoever to not play them now.

Yeah the ending is still bullshit, but getting there is still an amazing experience everyone can enjoy. No word on whether or not the DLC's will be included. I would definitely think they would, particularly because Mass Effect 2 on PS3 had all them. This will also be the first time you will be able to play the first Mass Effect game on PS3, as it was only available on PC and 360 until now.

That is an incredible deal. Hope it does have the DLC as I've never gotten any of them and even though I own 2 out of 3 for that price I'd purchase again.

Haven't played the single player DLC for ME3 yet, but the ME2 DLC is arguably the best DLC released for any game. "Lair of the Shadow Broker" is fucking beyond awesome, "Arrival" is the best prelude/teaser to any sequel ever, and at first I wasn't crazy about "Overlord", but it grew on me big time and it's probably the best of the 3 story-wise. Definitely must-see shit for every Mass Effect fan. "Bring Down the Sky" in ME1 was alright, but definitely the most passable of all ME DLC.

Though I heard the new ME3 DLC will have Omega, so I'm totally looking to get in on that.

Mass Effect 1 is the best in the trilogy. I don't really have much to add to this thread other than that. I have all 3 games already.

I've read on the Bioware Social Network that the PC version of ME1 will come packing Bring Down the Sky and Pinnacle Station and console versions of ME2 will come with Cerberus Network but that will be it in terms of DLC.

No word on DLC for PS3 version.

If I find the source I'll come back and link to it. If this is true though it's gone from a definite must-buy for anyone and everyone to actually just overpriced versions of the games you can get for the same and/or less individually on ebay for the sake of a fancy cover. Without DLC this is just money spinning.

That's not to take away from the fact I completely love Mass Effect (sans BS endings) but I just think if they bundle DLC these will fly off the shelves. Hell, I own all the games but would trade them in for thiis if it had all DLC.

If all the DLC is included, I'll think about it. But if not, I'll not even think about it. I don't own the games, but if this comes with everything, I'll buy it, as long as it's not too expensive.

The original on PS3? Huh. I'll buy this.....eventually, I have other game and tv priorities beforehand.

I've thought about getting 3 again and the fact that you get all 3 for the price of 1 definitely influences my decision, because I have 2 for PS3 and I don't want to pay for 2 again, with the price of 1 I'm essentially just paying for 1 and 3.

Why was the original kept off PS3 for so fucking long? A lot of PS3 gamers got screwed out of the full experience.

Microsoft has a bad habit of screwing over Sony hard.

I couldn't for the life of me get into the first game, but people have assured me that the second and third are worth trying out regardless.

Looks like I finally will when this hits shelves.

ME1 takes a very long time to get going. Honestly, I wasn't crazy about it either until I got a few hours into it. But if you stick it out, it gets a lot better.

It's still very slow and methodical compared to 2 and 3 though. 1 and 2 have the best stories. 3 has the best gameplay. Although 2 is probably the best overall game. The DLC's are a must. Best DLC's ever.
