Is there a reason why the Terminus armor and weapon can be purchased on PS3 but not on 360 or PC?

I know it was a preorder bonus, but it's available for purchase on the PS3's store and not available on XBL's marketplace or in the PC version. What gives?

If I remember correctly Terminus armor was a pre-order item available for PC and X-Box copies of ME2. ME2 was released in 2010, but wasn't available for PS3 users until 2011. The Terminus armor may have been included with PS3 copies of the game since they were unable to take advantage of the pre-order goodies at the original time of release.

ME2 Release date(s)

Microsoft Windows & Xbox 360

I realise this is a very old thread, but I would also like to know why it isn't possible for 360 or PC users to purchase the Terminus armour/Blackstorm weapon.

True, it was a pre-order bonus, but it has never been made available for purchase like the Inferno armour, which was also a pre-order item. End of the day, PS3 users have had the the option to buy it for 3 years now; 360/PC users only had a limited window of time to do so. The same is true of the Dr Pepper promotional items that are now only available for purchase on PS3.

Currently, PC users can only obtain it through means of ilegal downloads, like torrents, which I refuse to use. I'm a huge Mass Effect fan and want to support BioWare.
