BMC - You may not know this about me, but I’m not too big on making decisions. I’m not necessarily talking about the major life-changing ones that people love to make a big deal of, though I do approach those with a sensible amount of trepidation. No, the decisions that I suffer with the most are typically the ones that will the least impact on my life.

Honestly if you have both games already and have save files on either 360 or PC, I wouldn't bother getting it (which I'm not). There's really no point. It's the same game. If I ditched my save files from Mass Effect 1 I would feel like I was missing out on a lot of content in two (which you do, there are tons of characters that don't show up if you don't import them, as well as side quests) which would carry over into three. I want to see everything the world has to offer, not just what the PS3 version allowed me to see.
