If they upgraded the graphics, I imagine ME1 would benefit the most as those are a bit ancient now, and ME3 benefiting the least.
I'm just really hoping they'll upgrade the character creator. It was always one of the worst I've ever seen. I'm sure they never "upgraded" it before to retain backwards compatibility between all 3.
More than likely it'll be exactly the same. Same bugs, just upgraded graphics and UI. This IS EA after all.

I hear you regarding Conrad as I typically run the Paragon options and seeing him revert to the Renegade choice in ME2 was always a bit odd to be sure. Though the callback and reasoning for that in ME3 was interesting. That said, there are a number of bugs being fixed, actually!
While there aren't many specific mentions of which individual bugs are being addressed, the Project Director does have a number of tweets clarifying many bugs are being fixed, among other things. That's aside from the gameplay tweaks and other modifications, including updated character creation, so there's certainly a bit more work going into this than just upgrading the graphics. 🙂
Personal mileage may vary of course depending on one's prior experience with the trilogy and what they're looking to get out of the Legendary Edition, but it's definitely worth keeping an eye out to see how things shape up as we get closer to release.

@EA_Mako
Well, that sounds just great! The older version does run pretty well. The Conrad bug I was able to fix with the Gibbed editor. Only a few bugs here and there.
The only thing I'm REALLY looking forward to is seeing how the Mako runs. I REALLY love ME1, but the Mako always frustrates me to no end. I can't tell you how many times I've sworn to hunt down and strangle the person who created it.
I'm really going to miss Pinnacle though. It's really the only way to get all level 10 gear. That'll be darn near impossible without it.I still won't be playing the ending of ME3 though. Can't bring myself to do it. Finished it once. Only once. Back when it first came out. Got me so upset I snapped my PS3 disk in half. Couldn't even play any of them for over a year. Even now, I can't bring myself to finish it. The ending is just... bad.

LOL, I didn't snap a disk in half, but I can barely play any of the original trilogy with ME1 being the easiest of them to get into. I can play ME:Andromeda and like it, but the ending of ME3 just grates so bad it soured me on the game.....I want MELE to come out but I will be ending the game run just before going to Earth again.
I have heard many people hate on the Mako, but as a PC player I didn't find it that bad. I did figure out how to read the land and map to figure out how to drive where they wanted you too, to make it easy to get around. I hated the ME2 craft much more, if for no other reason than the silliness of it's design and effects....you could actually kill the heavy Geth mechs by landing on their backs twice.....or shoot them like 50 times....So a craft that could be killed in two shots, can run under the legs of a Geth heavy mech, launch up with boosters, come down on it's back and kill it quicker and safer than shooting at it....

Lol, yea. I was the same way for ages. The ending of ME3 ruined the entire series for me for ages. I was like, "Why play ME1 and 2 if it's only going to end like that?"
Now, I can sorta "forget" about it for the majority of the playthrough. But once I get to that final mission... I lose all willingness to play. I usually end the game right after Citadel.
Well, regarding the Mako, I'm a bit of a completionist. I have to get ALL the mining locations and such so I have to drive over the worst mountains to get them because they ALWAYS put them right at the top.
Hammerhead is a bit less annoying. I hate the delay in the jumpjets and it's incredibly short lifetime. Not very reactive at all.
Being a completionist is kinda why the lack of Pinnacle is bumming me out. I can get all level 10 gear on a brand-new ME1 playthrough every time with it. I'm good... and I really don't see how I'll get to level 10 gear without it. ☹️
