PC. It's been about 5 years since I built mine, so I'm hopefully going to be putting together a new rig later this year or early 2017. It's appropriate really. I built my first PC in 2011 in preparation for ME3, and now I'll be making another in time for ME:A.

That's when I built my current PC too. I had to upgrade my video card for DAI but it's worked pretty good for me. Only games and other fun stuff installed on this baby; no work apps allowed. My next upgrade will probably be a new mobo/cpu, or I might go all out and have a custom one built that will last me for the next 5+ yrs. I like knowing exactly what's on my machine but I really hate being my own tech support. :-/

So, yeah PC for MEA.

I don't believe anymore.

I'll probably get ME:A on the Xbox One.

To think that once I could not see beyond the veil of our reality, to see those who dwell behind. My life now has purpose, for I have learned the frailty of flesh and bone.

PC, always. Been thinking about upgrading; MEA would give me the perfect excuse.

It's looking like Xbox One for me unless my PC will still be up to the task. She managed DAI okay but I'm thinking MEA will likely be more demanding on my old CPU.

I will wait for info (preferably reliable sources before release) on which version that runs best and how optimization is handled. Then I will decide on either PC or PS4...

Right now, PS4. I cant stand using keyboard and mouse to play and my PC isn't good for gaming anyway. Nor can I afford a good gaming PC. The announcement that Sony wont allow mods for PS4 for Fallout 4 has me considering getting an xbox1 but I still like my PS4.

I'm on the fence about this and need help.

I own both a ps4 and pc. I have been a console gamer my whole life and that's where my friends r, but im really starting to get into pc. I just built my second pc which will be able to play andromeda at 1080p 60 fps.

Things is is that I still prefer a controller over mouse and keyboard. So as of now, I'm leaning towards ps4 unless the pc version has controller support but me3 didn't even have that so I don't have much hope.

Probably pick it up on ps4 first, then get it for pc when there is a sale.

I'm way too stupid and lazy to build a PC.

I don't think you have to worry about controller support for pc this time.
ME3 came out in 2012 and the fact that it didn't had a controller support was a deal breaker for many players (myself included), but since then Bioware published DA:I which has controller support.

If your pc is really capable of 1080p 60fps gaming i think you have to go with the pc version.
On ps4 you will probably get 30fps and the equivalent of medium to high pc graphic settings.

Even my pc build (i5-6500, gtx 950, 16gb ram) which might not be capable of 1080p-60fps if i don't lower the graphics , is probably more powerful than a ps4.

PS4 initially, but the lack of mods for Fallout 4 and Skyrim mean I will purchase a Scorpio when it's out (if it lives up to the hype) and have 3 games to play on it.
The family pc is too old for any new games now.

PC.

I have a controller too but I will probably play with mouse+keyboard.

Give me a game like AC, Witcher or the Arkham series but if my life depended on it I can't aim with my controller.

there going to release in full DX12, so my shiney new rx480 8gb oc gpu should shine nicely even if its still shackled to a sabretooth 990fx mobo with an fx8350 cpu and 16gig of 1866 ram...

but i'll be getting this on both pc and xbone, pc so I can play it all day every day and xbone for when I want to sit back with a controller and use the big screen and surround sound, oh and because that's where the otrher family memebers will play (on my xbox account....)

seriously though if they have mooks like nuclear abominations in this game i'll need ot turn the sound way down those things already rattle the glass in the picture frames when I play on the 360 lol

just because your paranoid doesn't mean there not out to get you!

i'm dyslexic and grammatically challenged if you spot a mistake its because auto correct has messed up:)
