Report: EA Is Remastering The ‘Mass Effect’ Trilogy At Long Last (Unconfirmed)

Damn. I wanted Kasumi and Samara on the cover but unfortunately they aren't considered relevant enough
 
I was surprised to see cricket bugman on the cover but I think people loved him. It’s been a long time

It's weird that they didn't put the most boring character on the cover (Kaidan), he seemed to be quite liked by the crazy fangirls on tumblr.
 
Honestly, I'm fine with the remasters, an updated ME1 would go miles to getting a few curious friends into the good game in the franchise.

What I really want to know is who in the EA exec team has a hate boner for the Bioware teams? Another Mass Effect game? After the disaster of the last two Bioware games, with no sign of them climbing out of the ball of bad decisions they've found themselves in? I wonder if they're looking for an excuse to blow up the name, shutter the studio finally and scatter the talent around other teams, as EA is oft want to do.
 
So this is Mass Effect 1-3 with all the DLC included for Xbox One, PS4 and PC?

I'm surprised it took so long, not that it's happening.

Guess Bioware is trying to gain back some goodwill after Andromeda.

When this hits EA Play, that's quite some value.
Partially that, partially proving to EA that they can earn enough money and favor to delay the axe from dropping for a bit longer.
 
i replayed the series last year, this remaster is pointless as fuck.
are they going to fix the writing between the 3 games or just add some polish to miranda´s ass
bioware havent made a good game since me2 or dragon age origins

So from all indications, this is just the same content with a fresh coat of paint.

Why the fuck would anyone buy this? People who already played them know its shit, and any one who hasn't has, as their primary knowledge of the series, the fact that it completely shits the bed at the end.

I re-iterate what I said earlier in the thread, the only people looking forward to this are sfm porn gif makers who want higher res base models.
 
Time to dust off this video series:

(summary: Mass Effect 2 is a shitload of fuck)

In other news, I literally just finished replaying Mass Effect 1 again. I used a high-resolution texture pack and reshade and it was great! Nothing to complain about, other than the game showing its age in terms of smaller details. Can't beat that ME1 gameplay though, it was way better than 2 and 3.

Didn't 2 suck largely because 95% of the rpg elements were stripped out because that faggot who couldn't beat the cuphead tutorial complained about them?
That and Karpyshyn was half out the door if not gone by that point. He was the main writer and they dropped his plot ideas and kind of dicked around for a whole game before rushing the whole thing terribly in 3.

Yep and the game also sucked because the writers decided to kill the protagonist in the first 5 minutes in a cutscene.
 
ME1 was great for the world building, as well as having a neat Sci-fi story.

ME2 had an okay story, but threw out a lot of the world building from the first game. What makes up for this are the interactions with the Normandy crew.

ME3 is rough to get through and has a bad ending; however, the multiplayer was fun, the crew interactions are still pretty good (though cheapened by a lack of cutscene conversations), Rannoch and Tuchanka are great set pieces, and the Citadel DLC is fantastic.

The best way to play ME3 is to download an alternative ending mod and the Citadel Epilogue Mod.
