You can almost feel the 'experts' all over the Fox News channel cowering in fear at the possibility of misogynistic, lesbian love being splashed all over offices as Bioware's Mass Effect is confirmed for a PC release on May 6, 2008 in North America.

According to the release, the game is "Re-designed for the PC" and also "...introduces the following features:

New squad control interface – Players can now issue commands to individual squad members, providing a new level of depth to the tactical combat.

Hot-key functionality – Biotic powers and abilities can be mapped to individual keys, allowing a faster “run and gun” style of gameplay.

Re-designed Mako controls – Players can explore alien planets and engage in vehicular combat with an intuitive and fully camera independent control system for the Mako, their all-terrain vehicle.

New Quick-save button and increased number of save slots.

New decryption mini-game – A new decryption mini-game invites players to test their skills as they avoid obstacles and move their icon to the center of the digital mechanism.

New inventory screen GUI and functionality – The enhanced inventory system makes it easier for players to equip and modify their weapons and armor."

See all the American spellings? Yes, well, that's because we're still waiting for the European release to be confirmed.

Now, is Electronic Arts making any money out of this? We wouldn't think so.

Xbox 360 Mass Effect lovers still have the 'Bring Down the Sky' downloadable pack which is due in March.
