No reviews. EA did not send out review copies due to the large patch. Convenient.

Not true.....Gameinformer is in the middle of their review now. They've been playing since Monday night and are waiting to publish it after they've played 2 and 3 some more, says they already finished 1. Sounds pretty positive so far!

The only issue I've had with save games doing this is that you get the ultimate edition of the game with Pro so if you buy a lesser version then the save game may not carry over. Since this game doesn't have different versions that shouldn't be an issue.
Eventually most Pro games do come to the Basic service but not sure how long that usually takes.
I don't plan to play through it multiple times right away so no real reason to purchase it at full price and as a bonus get to try Biomutant as well.

Most likely the XSX will be superior. For one, it supports 120 fps while the PS5 does not. Depends on whether you care about that or not.

It’s literally the same games with some medium sized tweaks to ME1 and unified graphics. You probably know if you want this already

Loving going back through this at 120 FPS

Nothing in ME1 so far, but then again, ME1 is my least favorite ME game.

It's a PS4 game running in BC mode. There's no PS5 patch.

If you pay full price for this you are everything that is wrong with gamers, it's a shitty low effort PC port, you can get MUCH better results with the PC version which came out yonks ago. Literally console users get ripped the fuck off and just accept it, no wonder EA treats you guys like sheep like children.

Yup, they changed it in order to put more size options
Played the first one for about 10 min yesterday before sleep, and I think it looks great on the PS4 Pro. Even at 1080p.
60 FPS makes all the diference. Animations become way more fluid.
I'm eager to play more. One of my favorite games ever.

I would have to buy this game like 15 times to equal the price of a gaming PC lol

They literally changed the combat in ME1.

Take with a grain of salt as someone could be trolling on the Steam forums, but i just saw this in regards to censorship -
Its just in relation to ME2 so far.
This has kind of put me off the game, and i have been looking forward to this package for months. I like to play as a real arsehole with Sheperd (anything goes to get the job done), and i worry that he's probably been pussified so much through each game, that i dont know what to do now lol.

I took today and Monday off so I could have a 4 day weekend with this. I had completely forgotten how stilted Male Shep is voice wise compared to Jennifer Hale. I may need to re-roll as femshep because I find myself laughing at how rough some of his voice lines are lol

As soon as I heard they were changing some camera angles, I went from day one pre-order to maybe get on sale for $15 in 2 years.

You seriously care that much about Miranda's ass? That's ridiculous.

The problem for me is like the Quarion slave thing, its a very short side mission, but does give you an oppatunity for paragon or renegade points, and also some pretty funny dialogue if you go renegade.
I mean how much could they of cut from all 3 games. I always go full renegade, and there are a lot of things that probably dont sit well in todays clown world. Its really making me nervous, and i have the money right now to buy the game lol.

Yeah I'll take that with a grain of salt dude. I'll be the first to criticize if they did indeed remove those options, but in today's politically charged climate some folks will make shit like that up. They left the LITERALLY mentally retarded character in from the Overlord dlc so I can't imagine they would take out punching a reporter.

Thats shocking if true. Infact it's downright bullshit!
There must be another source that states if it's true ir not.

Its more about the principle of it. I am swimming in games I can play. I feel zero need to spend money on games I already own when they're putting their ideology over catering to the customer and making it an attractive purchase.

“Aww, it’s so...average,” she said to him in a cold brick of passion
What ideology? They changed a camera angle so it's not solely focused on some chicks ass.
The horror!

You mentioned "ideology". I was just asking what you meant. I wasn't aware booty shots were an ideology.

I mean..he's not wrong. It's pretty tepid censorship for sure, to me, it's not an issue, but it IS censorship regardless if one feels like it's not a big deal. I can respect

principle on the matter.

I gotcha on this one fam. A woman who was 'designed' to be the perfect operator going into her backstory that's only slightly less fucked up than Jack's, and I'm apparently having a conversation with her ass about it.
I wasn't outraged at it then, just disappointed that we needed lazy TnA in one of the best gaming stories ever told. I remember the early seasons of Game of Thrones where I found myself going, "Ladies, can you put your tits away, I'm trying to enjoy the plot."

Exactly.
Calling it censorship is way over the top. Miranda still has her ass. They didn't nerf her ass. They didn't put a big black bar over her ass or blur it out. All they did was change a camera angle during a conversation to be less juvenile.
If something like that is enough to make you go from a day 1 player to buying it on sale 2 years later then you can do that, but I find it laughably ridiculous.

This game was modern, cinematic and oozed of atmosphere when it was released. And I was a big fan. But fuuuuuck.., it looks so outdated.. Just looking at the characters' lips flapping like that.. Ow
Edit: I just noticed the censorship comments. Well, there's no going back from there then, this game is definitely dead to me.

in all the comparisons it certainly seems like they low key ruined the look of the original game? the first one had such a cool 70s sci-fi movie aesthetic. the remaster is looking a little generic 90s space game now

There's absolutely no way they removed the indentured servant Quarian quest from ME2 and removed punching the reporter in part 2&3. I refuse to believe it until its confirmed. The much touted "Remaster" has less content that the original games. What a joke.

After the internet lynch mob went after Cyberpunk over a fucking background billboard, can you really blame them? I'm sure EA doesn't care much about what one forum cries about, but when that screeching spills over into social media and they have an angry mob riling up the unstable on Twitter; it's probably a headache they'd want to avoid in this day and age.

You're not wrong! I just wish companies didn't listen to the loud Twitter mob as much as they do. Thankfully I still got the originals and just to support Bioware I will get the Legendary Edition. They are one of my favorite developers and I want them to keep releasing games. I miss their magic and hopefully Dragon Age 4 is a return to form.

Old BioWare was just fantastic. I'm hoping this project reminded them of what they were and they grow from it.
