BioWare Confirms DLC Support for Mass Effect 2

GOONL!NE: Project director for Mass Effect 2 Casey Hudson has revealed there will be DLC support for the game.

The first Mass Effect only received two DLC packs since it's release in 2007, Bring Down the Sky in 2008 and Pinnacle Station only this year. But it seems ME2 will be supported much better this time in terms of DLC.

The real killer5281d ago

All i can say, I HATE DLC.

Dragon age has also stupid DLC, if they fix the combat problem than i'm more happy.

Syronicus5281d ago

You think you are getting a new quest until it asks you if you want to purchase it. What a joke. I hope they don't do that for ME2.

Nihilism5281d ago

I agree, i don't know why people think DLC is a good thing, if DLC legitimately was extra content, then maybe it would be worth it, but we all know it is always a few useless weapons and levels/maps that were held back from the original release.

The fact that they incorporated a 'buy dlc' conversation choice with an npc in dragon age really pissed me off.

Why Dat5281d ago

I hope this DLC is also available for PC... please don't neglect the PC community Bioware!

chak_5281d ago

I'd rather have 30€ real extension rather than 3 10€ crappy DLC.

make your damn work the old way :o

The Wood5281d ago

they'll be releasing dlc for dlc... Its kinda becoming a joke especially if you have to pay. Dont get me wrong, some dlc is good but some like 'horse armour', guns and content that could of been included in the original release is a thorn in our sides. Some WILL take full advantage of us by using dlc to scam more money out of us.

pippoppow5281d ago

Years ago an expansion pack would be released 6 months to a year from the original titles release date. Now it is obvious content is being left out to be sold soon after the original title is released. 1-3 months later for extra content? Why not hold off the release date then to add this content before release? Too obvious. GTA4 DLC is justifiable while others like Capcom DLC's should be shunned. It is unfortunate that most companies thrive on consumer ignorance. Consumers really need to be more informed before a purchasing any product. Even gamers.

side note---Venger. Loved those D$D cartoons. Have the DVD collction. Ah, nostalgia.

Loved Alpha Protocol in all it's glorious jank. Great game.

SimpleSlave23d ago (Edited 23d ago )

Not only glorious jank, but the idea that the story can completely change depending on what you do, or say, or side with, makes it one of the most forward thinking games ever. The amount of story permutation is the equivalent of a Hitman level but in Story Form. And it wasn't just that the story changed, no, it was that you met completely new characters, or missed them, depending on your choices. Made Mass Effect feel static in comparison.

Alpha Protocol was absolutely glorious, indeed. And it was, and still is, more Next Gen than most anything out there these days. In this regard at least.

Pity.
