What does backwards compatibility have to do with it? Is the Series version just the Xbox One version played via backwards compatibility?

Yes, that's why the PS5 version can't do 120FPS.

Well...I don't think so as pre-ordered games already unlock at midnight anyway...

EDIT: when I go into 'manage my order' it says 14th so no idea whats going on. :lol:

I think I'm most looking forward to being transported to another time and place by THOSE TUNES.

It’s preloaded on the PS5. Over 100GB(!)

It says it’s going to be unlocked at 1pm but after last week’s tease about possibly playing RE8 a day early I’m not going to get my hopes up. :slol:

Yeah, the timer counts down to zero.

“Play Game” appears.

Click on it. “This game hasn’t reached it’s started date.”

New timer comes up, to midnight.

:lol:

So it does indeed look as if they done goofed with the lighting in ME1

Generally speaking, areas like the Citadel Presidium or some of the more earth-like uncharted worlds with plant life and greenery that were already pretty bright look great. These areas benefit most from the change, which feels as though the contrast has been lowered across the board. Locations that were darker and more foreboding in the original do feel like they’ve lost something, though.

The obvious location that’s been discussed at length pre-release is Eden Prime, the tutorial world where you’re dropped into an apocalyptic disaster. In the original, the sky is seared blood red, and everything is rather claustrophobic and nasty. The remaster has more smoke and fire effects, but the sky is clearer, with the sun flipped in the sky so it bears down on you as you forge onwards. It looks pretty, and there’s plenty of lens flare, but I think the original mood was superior.

Set the Xbox location to NZ. The game launched, but only ME1 seems to be installed so far. Suits me fine!

Looks like it won't appear in the EA Play Pro library until after launch so no pre-load for me.
