    Ah, that's too bad. I'm not really a big achievement guy but since I already played on the 360, I thought why not earn more in another playthrough on a better platform?

    Still gonna consider it though. I'm on a bit of a Mass Effect series high. Could anyone share the link for the 360-to-PC save transfer tool? And for those who've done that, have you been able to transfer the PC save back to the 360 without any issues (importing to ME2, etc.)?

      I must agree and with the ability to convert saves makes it no problem to go to PC from 360.

        Could you share where I can find this? And can I transfer/convert the PC save back to the 360?

          I don't know about a ME1 converter, but the one for ME2


          I transferred some of my 360 ME2 saves to PC and they worked fine, no issues. even works when imported to ME3. I've never tried to go from PC to 360 though.

            I tried to do PC saves to 360 on ME2, but I couldn't get any of them to load.

              Thanks! Already have it bookmarked. Hopefully transferring a ME1 save to the PC will work.

              I've been looking at some mods people have made and this should increase the replayability even more!

                Is it worth playing ME 2 and 3 if you aren't able to play number 1? It seems like the story is such a major factor that I would be missing a lot if I'm not able to play the 1st game in the series. I've done some looking around and I guess they never ported the original game to the PS3.

                  Everyone will say that if you can play the first one it will make the overall experience better. If you can't I'd say it would still be worth giving the other two a try.

                    Unfortunately I don't have any way to play it (no 360 or good enough PC). I'll probably still try it out. I read there is a DLC that lets you make the decisions from the 1st game that carry over... that's good enough for me I think.

                      Yes!

                      I got bored with ME1 and stopped playing halfway through. I picked up ME2 well after release mainly because there was a sale on Amazon for $10 and I figured I would try out the ME universe again. I loved ME2 and view it as one of my top ten favorite games.
