Post by: NGTM-1R on September 09, 2009, 07:24:28 pm: Nothing to the main story perhaps, but Bring Down The Sky was actually pretty good as its own little aside.

Post by: MP-Ryan on September 09, 2009, 08:02:40 pm: All the comments I've seen have said not to bother wasting your money.

I didn't. BioWare/EA's support of Mass Effect has been absolutely shameful.

Post by: Vidmaster on September 14, 2009, 03:52:55 pm: it's a ****ing joke, quickly packed together to fulfill the promise of more DLC (calming the fans) and to promote the sequel.
Sucks.

Post by: TESLA on September 15, 2009, 10:02:27 am: Is it downloadable for windows live, bought the PC version of the game.

More important though,

Is it worth the money?

Post by: Spicious on September 15, 2009, 09:18:01 pm: Lovely, the Australian version seems to be going for the equivalent of $6.90.

It might have been worth it if it was 2-3 times as long.

Post by: Starman01 on September 20, 2009, 02:09:50 pm: As much as I hoped for a new content, I'm not going to pay for some stupid "holodeck" theater, even if there seems to be a new weapon as price (which is pretty unnecessary, because I use the High-End Specter weapons for my team anyway).

To bad there is modding community/possibility to make some new planet side missions with new (and better structures). So it's just waiting for ME2 for me

I believe the point is referred to as "making money," or something like that.

That, and it got me from 56 to 60 just in time for Ilos and Citadel, Pt II. Plus, you finally got a place to replenish grenades :).
