Kasumi or overlord?
Im going do my final play through on my 360 on hardest difficulty.
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.
Which mass effect 2 dlc is best?
I recently played Overlord and didn't like it so much myself. Not as much ''story'' as I was hoping and the fact that your party members don't comment at all through the mission takes alot of the immersion of actually being apart of a team. I haven't played the Kasumi DLC though I'd wager I'd of preferred that knowing the mission being all James Bond Esque. Plus a sweet new submachine gun!...Oh right annd a new party member who you can't have deep conversations with.
Kasumi adds a useful character, while Overlord is a neat adventure that doesn't really add anything after. If I had to choose one, go with Katsumi. Oh and tip for the Insanity play-through, start a new game at level 1 (you can re-import your character and get the bonus for finishing the game). It is much easier since the enemies level with you. Also, go and recruit Mordin as fast as you can, since upgrades will be the thing that gives you the edge in combat.

"Would kasumi not be best is she fully voiced and will talk through game or is she like the one dlc guy free he won't even talk if you go to his area in ship?
If your going through an entire playthrough go for the Kasumi DLC seeing she has some sweet powers you can use.

Do you want me to import or start lvl 1 or do you do that when importing start lvl 1?
Import your ME1 save again (if you have one) or just start a new game at level 1. It's possible to import a higher level character, but trust me it is WAY harder.

" @Chris2KLee said:You should receive bonus cash for completing ME2 once, so that will help. Us that money on upgrades as quick as you can, and also Miranda is a good choice because she boosts team damage as part of her unique class skill. What class are you going to use? I highly recommend soldier, but sentinel and infiltrator are also good choices." Import your ME1 save again (if you have one) or just start a new game at level 1.

Is there a good class to use that can learn that warp ability right away at start of game?

"Anyone who uses warp counts, doesn't have to be your character. So take Miranda, and just when the barrier is about to go down, use her warp to finish it off. I should have noted this earlier, but set power use to manual, not auto. You want as much control over your teammates as possible. A lot of playing Insanity is about placement and patience, and proper use of squadmate's abilities.
Ok the Overlord DLC is fun but it's not brilliantly worked on like a normal mission, no commentary from squad, a few tasks seem a little pointless. But still quite fun and it makes better use of the Hammerhead Tank than the Firewalker Pack.
Kasumi on the other hand, gives you a new squad mate, crappy dialogue tree but a really fun loyalty mission and maybe a laughable entrance into the Normandy. Kasumi is worth getting over Overlord.
I really enjoyed both. Kasumi seems to be well discussed here, so I'll give a little feedback on Overlord. It's very action heavy as well as extensive use of the Hammerhead like in the Firewalker pack. While the story may seem like just a reason to get from point A to point B, it has a fabulous payoff with a final image that will stick with you. Overall, the tone is similar to Jack's loyalty mission.
