Pick a random 4 hour stretch of the main game and you'll get an experience that is far better than what Omega offers, even if I like the idea of giving the player a pair of new squad mates and new enemies to contend with. At the end of the day, if you're a die-hard fan and a completionist you will find some enjoyment with Omega, but if you stay away you're really not missing out on anything special."

AllThatsEpic: Mass Effect – though centered on a human by the name of Commander Shepard, is sprinkled with various alien races. In the universe that BioWare has beautifully created there are Turians, Drell, Elcor, Hanar, Quarians, Volus, and the Reapers – the human race’s biggest threat. There are many races peppered throughout the Citadel, and various planets Shepard and his/her crew venture to. In Mass Effect 2, players are taken to Omega, constructed of a hollowed-out metallic asteroid, which harbors criminals, terrorists, and those who possess more than a touch of a rebellious streak. It’s on Omega’s nightclub, Afterlife, that players first encounter Aria T’Loak, the self-proclaimed ruler of Omega.
From the article - So, N7 Day was last Thursday and it came along with a special gift for all of Mass Effect fans: we could get to see the very first image of what will become –soon enough, we hope- the fourth console installment of the franchise.
The game is all about cycles, the ripple effect and the everlasting battle against extinction, but not only human extinction; it is extinction in a whole new scale, and the redefinition of the concept of life.
The DLC is quite long and enjoyable, I would give it at least a 7.5/10. I think the cerberus dude should have put a better fight because he is like a pansy by when you reach him. Also it would have been nice to have Omega as a new hub.
