Yo, will this spoil anything?  Still haven't played ME2 yet, though I'm hardcore into the first.

You have to have Mordin do something, use him to send the crew back to the ship or have him on your team. He usually dies for some reason if has no 'role'

Is it just me or does Brad seem a lot more cheerful/energetic than usual? =p I guess this was recorded at that special time of day when the planets align and he's not tired.

I'm exactly like Brad. I need to listen to every conversation thread. I've also read every entry in the codex too. So Brad, you're not alone.

Feynman was a brother in my chapter of Pi Lambda Phi at MIT. It's cool to see him referenced in Mass Effect 2. Also fuck you, Star Wars is still great.

I recommend picking this up if you're still playing ME2, it's more interesting than Zaeed's mission, and you get a bitchin' SMG.  Plus there are a couple of funny references later in the mission.

Was going to get this. But $7 for less than an hour's game-play? They can shove it up their ass.

I wouldn't overly recommend this, unless you're a really big fan of the game.  Personally, although it's not a huge amount of new content, I had to have the final character.  I think she's a pretty cool character and she's an absolute monster during fights, easily one of the best to use.
 
The new weapon is pretty good too, and the mission is at least fun.  But if you're only looking for more content to play through, then I wouldn't bother.

@Shibbles:
Because there were actual releases this week, besides this DLC and some terrible small time stuff?
I'm getting this DLC once I start my Insanity playthrough. This looks very interesting and not too terribly priced. The only gripe I have is that this is stuff you'd want during your initial playthrough.

This reminds me of how fucking awesome Mass Effect 2. 
 
Will be buying this when ME3 approaches probably, along with everything else that has been released by then, to get a feel of how it is so I can make the comparison and prepare myself for the final game.
