Mass Effect on the PC will be identical to its older 360 sibling, but will also sport some PC exclusive additions. Additions including an optimized control scheme, the ability to map hot keys, an enhanced inventory system and a new decryption mini game. Mini games FTW! What is missing from their announcement is any details about how the upcoming Bring Down the Sky (http://www.xbox360fanboy.com/2008/02/06/mass-effect-gets-bring-down-the-sky-dlc-in-march/) DLC will be incorporated into the PC release or if they'll be adding more graphic "sex scenes" so FOX News has something to talk about (http://www.xbox360fanboy.com/2008/01/24/ea-calls-for-fox-news-to-correct-mass-effect-story/).
