Maybe Im alone but I feel like I played them all to death as they released so I think Im good as far as the original trilogy goes. I mean its cool that theyre updating them but thats not enough of a reason for me to want to play that entire trilogy again.

Won't play 'em for a while since I only just finished all 3 about a year ago. Still curious what exactly they've changed though. I thought I read something about making the 3 games more consistent. Does that mean make the first 2 more like the 3rd game or what?

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

Can't imagine they'd release this and not put it on PC also so it must be. I didn't check either.

ngl, kinda glad that they finally put everything in once place with all the DLC.

I was always the "wait for the ultimate edition" type of buyer, but that never happened for ME so I kinda skipped on the whole series.

I'll pick this up at some point. I've never played the DLC but own the trilogy on the Xbox 360 that I don't have setup. Plus this version will run better unless they shit the bed.

I may pick this up.

Only played a little bit of ME2 on 360, and while I do own all three games on PC now, I just never got around to them.

Sucks that they don't have any plans for PS5/XSX enhancements though. Oh well.

They do though? Thats the point?

4k UHD for Xbox one and PS4, forward compatibility to series x/PS5.

or are you talking about even more enhancements lol

Yeah as 4k UHD is not for the current gen consoles exclusively but the last gen consoles too. Forward compatibility is a feature of the current gen consoles so isn't a enhancement for this as that's a given anyway.

What would be considered an enhancement for current gen then? Just better textures or?

That would be part of it. Use of the DuelSence features could be neat too. It does seem on the PS5, PS4 Pro, Xbox Series X and Xbox One X it'll be running at 60fps though. Also the SSD in current gen consoles will certainly help with loading so it's probably still best buying it on current gen consoles or PC.

Played through the entire trilogy while on quarantine a few months back. Had the first 2 on 360 and its backward compatible on xbone. The third was a few bucks at game stop. I won't be picking up the legendary edition cause the 360 version held up pretty well, but its cool for anyone who doesn't already own and convenient they all come together!

The main reason for re-releases like this is less just getting people who've already played it to buy it again (though that's certainly a bonus, because nostalgia is a powerful drug), it's to try and expose an entirely new audience to the games.

There's plenty of people who were too young to play the Mass Effect games years ago, and who aren't about to try and track down an old used 360 or PS3 to be able to play them now. But a re-release/remaster now on current consoles means those people may be more inclined to pick it up (especially if it winds up costing less than a normal current-gen game). Which in turn expands the potential player-base the next time EA releases a main sequence sequel (something they may need desperately after torpedoing the existing player-base via the clusterfuck that was Andromeda).

Just as an example, I never played the Uncharted games on the PS3, but I picked up the Uncharted Collection for the PS4 because it was three games in one set for only $40. That in turn helped establish me as a fan of the franchise in time to later shell out cash for Uncharted 4 and Lost Legacy. I almost certainly wouldn't have bothered buying the later two games if they hadn't made it easy for me to play 1-3 on my PS4.

So many ports/remasters are messes when theyre first released.

And sadly, most of them stay that way. Even something as significant as the Master Chief Collection took something like 5 years to eventually get patched into being mostly fixed (mostly), but lower profile games tend to get shit out and then ignored by the developer after maybe one or two minor post-launch patches. Because they've already soaked you for most of the nostalgia money they're going to get in the first couple weeks or so of sales.

It's part of why I never look forward to whenever they mention an older game is getting a re-release. Because I've played too many re-releases.

And that's assuming you don't get the style of remaster where they change or add things as an extra incentive to play, only to half-ass the new thing so badly that a) it's not even remotely worth it, and b) it winds up breaking the game in entirely new ways. That was a big problem with the shit "Enhanced Edition" versions of Baldur's Gate that came out a while back. It doesn't feel very enhanced when the new characters they add are all mostly poorly-written and kind of clash with the existing aesthetics, and then on top of which can cause extremely hard-to-avoid irreversible game crashes that can basically invalidate tens of hours worth of playtime.

Apparently, there's one bit of DLC from the first game that won't be part of this, due to the source code being lost

The source code got lost but they couldn't get it from all the copies doubtless purchased or downloaded over the years or re-create it for a definative edition compelation?

I played the trilogy a couple years ago when Origin Access was free for a month. I MIGHT get it, but not for full price.

Plus, I am not looking forward to playing Mass Effect 3 again. I am still baffled how people spent so much time complaining about the ending when the rest of that game was such a horrible mess to get through.

The first one is the only one I really loved playing since it was more of an RPG, the sequels moved away from that and tried to be closer to dudebro action games

Despite the bad reputation Andromeda was a lot of fun imo since EA incorporated a lot of elements from the Kingdoms of Amalur skill system

Is it even really censorship if the original version is still available and unaltered? It's pretty typical for remakes and remasters to make changes like this. Nobody called it censorship when they made Han shoot first in the star wars special editions, just petty and stupid.

What kind of shitty example is that? Han shooting first obviously has nothing to do with censorship.
