I´m thinking about getting some of the DLC (well, most of it). 1600 points would come to ~14€.

Any of you guys got some of that, is it worth it?

Karmaz for answers ofc.

Kasumi definitely was not worth the money I paid for it.... it adds a mission and a character but just feels tacked on. 

Overlord was okay, story was somewhat interesting. 

All in all I was pretty disappointed with the DLC.  Not planning on buying anymore....

^Yeah, it is the one before the Shadow Broker one.

Just played through Kasumi DLC. Really enjoyed it. Being kinda sneaky was a nice change in the constant carnage and killing.

And from a design side, there´s hardly things to complain. Setting, characters, locations and especially the music were great. Playtime was okay. All in all worth the purchase I´d say.

Is that a statue of Saren and why?

Isn't that other statue a creature from Dragon Age?

How much time did it take you to play through Kasumi?

Yeah, it´s Saren. I don´t want to tell too much, but you gift it to someone.

I didn´t recognize the creature, but figured it was from another game.

I played through it in about an hour and a half, but I took my time, explored much and there is a lot to see and some good conversations to be overheard at the party.
Plus, you get a nice suit for casual wear and a really REALLY great SMG. All in all I would say worth a fiver.

The cream on top would be a possibility to sex up Kasumi, but as far as I know you can´t

_{geddit? Cream on top}

Well technically, Mass Effect does take place in the 80's

Mass Effect 2 ‘Shadowbroker” DLC Dated, Priced

A post on the official BioWare forums today delivers the details of the upcoming “Lair of the Shadowbroker” DLC for Mass Effect 2 which we now know will launch simultaneously on the PC and Xbox 360 on Tuesday, September 7 for 800 MS Points.

As described by BioWare’s Chris Priestly, the content not only is an excellent adventure through Illium and the shadowbroker’s secret lair, but the new DLC will add the Shadow Broker intel center, new research, and five new achievements – and give fans of the original Mass Effect the chance to continue a relationship with Liara… WHOA! Somebody call FOX News…

Too bad I don't need Liara anymore...

<3 Tali

Liara lost all her sweetness in the hunt for revenge in ME2

Damn. I've had 600 points on my Xbox for a while and I was saving them for this DLC since the others were all 560 points.

Balls. Stupid points system I hate it.

Right so I have 2 options. Buy 400 points (or whatever is the least I can buy at once) and buy this DLC.
Buy another 800 and buy this DLC and one of the other 'mission' ones.

What do people recommend?

Overlord over Kasumi, but I enjoyed both. Overlord has far more content with Hammerhead driving (well floating) and a gripping story.
Kasumi comes with a charming new squadmate who kicks ass and a brilliant new SMG, new casual outfit and a rather short, but nicely designed mission.
Overlord has about the lenght of a hubworld, without the commerce interactions. You explore 4 different sites, all bound together by a playground for your ground vehicle (including funny VI comments, shooting herbivores along with bad robots).

Design wise I loved both equally. Great settings, good gameplay, cool characters.

So, I´m currenly playing on Insanity and it´s A BITCH!!!
Makes me believe getting wiped out and/or repurposed by the Reapers is a good idea...

Any tips?

Meh I remember it, but I don't remember it beeing a bitch, basically cover behind every corner you can, and cover all glass surfaces in your room when you try to take on that first collector "tank" thing supported by husks... that nearly made me put a hand through my monitor..

The only frustrating thing on Insane is when you get swarmed by husks + ranged units behind them... everything else you can pick off from cover...
