Mass Effect 1 came out in 2007, so the echoes of BioWare RPGs from that time resulted in unreliable weapons and clunky combat.

At around 40 hours across three games, I've got a lot left, but I've also got a great idea of how Mass Effect Legendary Edition stacks up. That's why we published a Mass Effect Legendary Edition review-in-progress last week, to allow for more time to marinate in the shinier worlds of Mass Effect 1, 2, and 3. Then there are 100+ hours of game time packed into Mass Effect Legendary Edition, which turns a review from time-consuming into all-consuming, especially for those of us who want to complete every side quest and chat up every alien in all the corners of the galaxy.
