Well, I'm not really going to pay for some weapons. Sure, they could help me in my missions, but I can do those without them. So, no, thanks, BioWare.
Mass Effect 2
Game » consists of 21 releases. Released Jan 26, 2010
After a violent death by an unknown force and a timely reanimation by the human supremacist organization Cerberus, Commander Shepard must assemble a new squad in the seedier side of the galaxy for a suicide mission in the second installment of the "Mass Effect" trilogy.
Mass Effect 2 Weapons DLC Out Today
I don't think these are necessary, the in game guns do the job just fine. I'm happy its out though since that means Shadow Broker is that much closer.
These would have been great...when I was going through the game the first 3 times, now they just seem meh.
These seem so silly. Personally paying $2 for some guy to take an hour or two in 3DS Max to change around a model and 2-3 min to open a text file and add in some numbers seem ridiculous to me. This is the kind of crap that should be on that Cerberus net thing for free. Remember that thing EA? The service that was supposed to give us free DLC.
Hmm. I like Mass Effect 2, and I like new weapons. Also, I like not paying much for stuff. Sounds like win-win for me.
Bones? Bananas? Why can't we just adopt the maple leaf as standard internet currency?
Anyway, Insanity runs are no effing joke, and the DLC locker packs are clearly tailored to that.
" @ZmillA: what does buying the game used have to do with anything "lets say it costs 30 bucks used. A person would be able to buy all the DLC and have an even greater experience than what the game cost at full price, and since they bought it for less they are more likely to buy the DLC if they like the game.
I'm leaving my second and third playthroughs of Mass Effect 2 for a month or 2. Let all the DLC come out and play it all at once. I doubt I'll get all these weapon and armour packs but that assault rifle looks awesome
Probably wouldn't buy this otherwise, but I just happen to have exactly 160 MS points lying around looking for a home.
I have yet to get any of the pay-for DLC for Mass Effect 2.
I am considering getting some of the other DLC, but I don't know how I feel about paying for guns in a game about shooting. Hopefully this is a failed DLC experiment for BioWare and they figure it out for Matt Effect 3.
Not happy about the price, but at least it is better then the costumes!!! I'll probably get it to hopefully aid my Insanity run-thru!!!
Publishers/Developers need to find incentive for fans to get excited about their DLC. Something like this offers no motivation for players who have already beat the game (in some occasions multiple times). I found this problem with Assassin's Creed 2's DLC. After playing through the game and experienced the plot twist, Ezio's backstory became insignificant and all care for the DLC went out the window.
I'm on my first play through the game right now. Would this break the balance by using them now, or are they best used for second plays through the game?
Two bucks? Hmm. You know what... no. It seems like a deal, but that's still ridiculous when you think about it. Plus, I don't play Mass Effect for the guns.
