Lair of the Shadoww Broker trailer!!! Looks sick!

I already bought some Bioware points so I can get this. :smiley:

Aye can’t wait

PC version of Shadowbroker is unavailable until Bioware fixes it. :slight_smile:

I heard it was fixed

I started it last night on PC, going to go back in and finish it up here in a little bit. Just trying to get the lunch situation taken care of.

It appears to be! I downloaded and installed over lunch. Now I just have to play!

Beat the Shadow Broker DLC tonight. Man that was OSSIM

Best boss battles in Mass Effect history, banging music, snappy banter, hilarious character information. Man that rocked. If ME3 is gonna be like this it needs to come out now

I’m breaking my cross posting rule here because I think this article is worthwhile.

I myself only played as ManShep because I wanted those romance options available.

Yea Lair Of the Shadow Broker is very satisying if your kind of bored with ME2.

I have to agree. LotSB tops any previous DLC Bioware has released. The banter between Shep and Liara was fantastic, in fact I spent the whole time wishing my other squad member would make a comment about them sounding like an old married couple. And for those that started a relationship with Liara in ME1 the payoff for that relationship here is worth the rather lackluster reunion on Illium but Liara makes you work for it far more than she did in ME1. It made it actually feel like it was something Shepard actually wants instead of the way the romances are actually handled in both games. If you only buy one DLC for ME2 this is the one.

I love LOTSB but i want the mercenary armor! You know the helmet with two eye holes, god i love that armor.

New Mass Effect novel due this fall
http://www.gamespot.com/news/6307244.html

Book publisher Del Rey announces fourth installment in novel spin-off series of sci-fi game; Halo: The Flood writer William C. Dietz authoring.

Mass Effect 3 is slated to arrive this coming holiday season. Today, book publisher Del Rey announced the game will have some company in the Mass Effect universe when it launches, thanks to a new spin-off novel due out this fall.

Ugh The Flood was horrible

That’s good news! Even if the last 3 books where not written had well has I would have like I loved those story. I’m really happy to continue the story of the remaining Grayson ( I know I’m a all around Grayson lover). I take all the Mass Effect I can take :slight_smile:

Apparently if you bought Dragon Age 2, you can get Mass Effect 2 for the PC for free.

Too bad I:

  1. Have not (yet) bought Dragon Age 2
  2. Have already bought Mass Effect 2
  3. Don’t have a gaming PC

Yeah, I figured everyone here who cared already bought and played ME2 so I didn’t post this news… But, maybe that was presumptuous.

Apparently you can gift the code as well, so if you have both games but know someone who doesn’t have ME2 you can give it to them. They won’t get the Cerberus Network (that’s apparently tied to your BioWare/EA account) but they can get the game.

I now officially have 3 copies of ME2, I just need to get ME on my PC so I can play from start to finish.

I stumbled across these http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=4437418 yesterday afternoon while browsing for ME stuff on ebay and ended up buying them from Toyrus’ ebay store. Couldn’t pass up the ME/N7 awesomeness to match my shirts, hoody, hat and messenger bag.
