Overlord is actually pretty great. I dug the whole sci-fi horror vibe of it, and the music was fantastic. I also liked that it was a bit longer and more involved that previous Bioware offerings. And any time Simon Templeman voices characters is alright with me.

The hammerhead sucks in this one nearly as much as the Mako sucked in the first one. I hope they leave vehicular scenarios out of Mass Effect 3 completely.
 
After watching this I went and played through Mass Effect 2 again.
 
Also... Singularity and warp, Vinny, singularity and warp!

They should have done this quicklook with a clear save.  I think one of the most enjoyable parts of DLC is to run through this sort of thing with a level 25+ character and just obliterate any geth in sight.

I found absolutely nothing wrong with the Mako in the first game.

Nothing wrong at all. It's like people didn't know you could hold down LT and aim... Plus it made the world feel bigger and more epic.

Aiming had little to do with it.

Hey Vinny, The anti-armor power Brad was talking about  was Warp, not singularity. Warp eats through armor. On Insanity most enemies have armor and Biotic powers wont work until it is gone.

 I thought that besides the inability to look down, the Mako was fine, it was just the worlds you used it in sucked balls. Lots of great big nothings that were a bitch to traverse. Also, I didn't realize it until halfway through my second playthrough, but the Mako totally has a jetpack-jumpy thing. Which is awesome and actually helps a lot.

Got it for 200 MSP, thought that it was awesome, great ending, I went with the paragon decision
 
And also, I love using the Hammerhead, I hope it returns in Mass Effect 3, the area you drove it around in was beautiful

is this the easiest difficulty setting? 
 
honest question.  I skipped the lower difficulty settings entirely, and just played the game through on intense my first time, so I don't know.

Weird that it seems like Shadow Broker was the only DLC without a video.
