Should You Play The Mass Effect: Legendary Collection?

Bioware and EA have revealed the official release date for the Mass Effect: Legendary Collection alongside footage of the games and comparison screenshots. Is it all as enticing as we’d hoped? Will Dylan and Ciaran be jumping back into the Normandy? And will Ashley be checking out the franchise for the first time in a couple of months?

Ciaran discusses the news that Overwatch 2 won’t even get a release date this year. Dylan is hoping Bayonetta 3 might still be a game that’s happening. We know the height of the vampire lady from Resident Evil Village, and speaking of RE — Dylan discusses his time with Resident Evil 7 after playing it for the first time over the week.
