Mr.Vic20 Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 For those on PC that have the interest, pre-load will be live sometime today, game launches on Thursday the 14th despite Steam's odd banner saying the 15th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 Too lazy to look it up. When does this hit consoles? Edit: It says the 14th. I guess I'll be playing this after Village. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XxEvil AshxX Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 I have it pre-loaded on Xbox. It did it yesterday. Much smaller install file than I exected though. It was like, 20 GB. Not unless it's gonna pull that Gears 5 bullshit where you download the game, only to launch it and have to download the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That does seem small to me. Maybe we it will get updated in the next day or so with more files to be downloaded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought 21GB was way too small for three full games with 4K textures. I guess we’ll see. Maybe I’m downloading the original games and there’s going to be a 70GB day one patch with all the upgrades. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Best Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 I'm leaning toward the 100gb range. My games download pretty fast on my Xbox so it's no big deal. I will however have to delete some games for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MS stated Smart Delivery will only download ME1 to start then download ME2 and 3 afterwards when needed or something. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much smarter than 343 making me download every Halo game but afterwards letting me delete the games I don’t want. This way I can at least play ME1 while downloading the others.

If I just get to stare at a fancy Start Screen while I wait for everything else to download, then what's the point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commissar SFLUFAN Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 Game Information Game Title: Mass Effect Legendary Edition Platforms: PlayStation 4 (May 14, 2021)PC (May 14, 2021)Xbox Series X/S (May 14, 2021)PlayStation 5 (May 14, 2021) Developer: BioWare Publisher: Electronic Arts Review Aggregator: OpenCritic - 91 average - 100% recommended Critic Reviews Attack of the Fanboy - 5 / 5 stars Mass Effect Legendary Edition is a fan's dream come true. With all three games and almost all of their DLC included in one upgraded package there simply isn't more to be asked for here other than a full remake. GameGrin - 10 / 10 Mass Effect: Legendary Edition is a phenomenal remaster of the original trilogy, with enough changes to not only feel fresh, but with enough quality-of-life improvements to truly call this the definitive way to play the Mass Effect trilogy. Press Start - 9.5 / 10 Mass Effect: Legendary Edition stands tall as one of the best remasters that I've ever played. The amount of care and effort that has gone into restoring the original Mass Effect along with the other two games is unmatched. While there are some underlying minor design issues with the original game, Legendary Edition is the best way to experience the Mass Effect trilogy. Period. Generación Xbox - Spanish - 9.2 / 10 Mass Effect Legendary Edition is a magnificent compilation. A title that will undoubtedly delight fans of Shepard's epic. Those who grew up and discovered a genre thanks to BioWare's work will be back in their favorite titles like never before. Face washing feels great for each of the three games. Plus, increasing and stability of fps on Xbox Series X gives the title an all-new feel and feel. SomosXbox - Spanish - 9.2 / 10 Mass Effect: Legendary Edition captures all the magic of the original trilogy and elevates it with improvements to all levels: resolution, frames per second, load times, graphic, playable, and visual enhancements. Sirus Gaming - 9 / 10 This is the most definitive version of the trilogy so far. For series veterans, we have a unified look for your customized Commander Shepard that you will experience adventures with till the bitter end. This not only applies to male Shepard. Female Shepard from the third game is the default model from the beginning. If that doesn’t put a smile on your face, I don’t know what will. For first-time players, you will get the best version of the games, complete with all the DLC’s. And a photo mode to boot! What more can you ask for? Hobby Consolas - Spanish - 89 / 100 The update of the game has its pros and cons, but the main improvements are well received. Narrative, setting and dialogs are still awesome, so having all condensed in a single package feels like a real treasure. The Games Machine - Italian - 8.7 / 10 Not every wrinkle can be hidden by a skillful make-up, but the in-game feeling is very good, and impersonating Commander Shepard gives the same vibrant feelings of the past. Saving the galaxy from the Reapers has never looked so cool. Stevivor - 8.5 / 10 Should you play Mass Effect Legendary Edition? Of course you should. This is BioWare firing — for the most part — on all cylinders and hopefully is the dawn of a new resurgence of the franchise (fingers crossed for EA Play 2021!). Get in, get immersed, explore the galaxy and defend it from a once in a 50,000 year occurence. Then head on over to Andromeda to appreciate that before the next adventures in the Sol system take place. Spaziogames - Italian - 7.5 / 10 While retaining some flaws of the original games, Mass Effect Legendary Edition (and specifically ME1's remaster and modern take on the action) is worth exploring once again for the fans, and for those who've always wondered what was so special about the franchise and never gave it a try. ACG - Unscored Video Review - Quote not available Fextralife - Unscored If you are a big fan of this series, I was getting goosebumps watching the opening cutscene. It was that good, literal goosebumps. If you are a fan of this series, you are going to love this game and if you are new to this franchise it is probably good enough Mass Effect 1 to get you through Mass Effect 2 and 3 with very little complaints. GamingTrend - Unscored The fact of the matter is, there are over 100 hours of game ahead of me across three games and more than 40 pieces of high-quality DLC like Lair of the Shadow Broker, Leviathan, and Overlord now folded directly into the story. So the saying goes, you can’t step into the same river twice, but Mass Effect Legendary Edition is certainly going to make one hell of an attempt at it. Now, if you will excuse me, I’ve got some Keepers to go scan. TheSixthAxis - Unscored On the whole, BioWare has done a fantastic job of bringing the original Mass Effect up to meet the standards of 2021. While it's still a bit rough in some areas, and there's quirks to how they've retrofitted some elements into the older game, it feels like a definitive version of the game you remember. My journey will continue on to the second and third game before pinning a score on the Legendary Edition remaster as a whole, but from what I've seen so far, there's more than enough here to get a thumbs up from series fans everywhere.
