Razer's new Mass Effect 3 lineup includes DLC items photo

"I'm Commander Shepard and this is my favorite PC manufacture on the Citadel." Do people still make that joke? I don't know.

So yeah, Razer and BioWare have teamed up to release a ton of branded Mass Effect 3 accessories, just in time for the March 6 release date. So what's on offer? Everything! Keyboard, mouse, Xbox 360 controller, messenger bag and even a mouse pad.

The most expensive of the bunch is the Razer Chimaera 5.1 headset, coming in at $209.99. The cheapest of the Mass Effect 3 collection, yet most overpriced, is the iPhone 4 protective case. Despite the price, I oddly really want the case. I am part of the problem.

As for the downloadable content, you'll be getting a code for a "Collector Assault" Rifle and other multiplayer items. If you already have the Collector Assault Rifle, then the code will just strengthen your gun even further. Note these codes are only good for PC and Xbox 360 players.

You can take a look at the entire Mass Effect 3 Razer lineup over on Razer's website as everything is up for pre-order right now.

Maybe we should start a running tally on how much it would actually cost to obtain every DLC code. Just how rich does Bioware think I am?

@PrinceHeir Overpriced my ass. Razer products can take a beating... you're paying for quality.

So basically all they did was pit a red stripe and "N7" on existing crap and jack up the price? Seems legit.

That iphone case looks a lot nicer than most other cases that are about $25. The place I worked over christmas sold these Angry Bird iphone cases and they were like $30 cheap plastic pieces of shit. We sold out of them every single time they were in stock. Not going to lie though. If I had an iphone I'd be buying that N7 case.

@Football Religion - sure. Everything but their scroll wheels.

Still tempted by the Imperator, though.

Great, another marketing Fuck You to the PS3 ME3 players. If you're going to break a game apart you should at least make it possible for all the people that want to play the game the opportunity to access all the pieces to the puzzle. How are we supposed to be good dogs and jump through these hoops if you won't let us into the show?

35 dollars seems like too much for a mouse pad, even a Mass Effect mouse pad.

I want an N7 ME3 stripe on my controller.

But I don't want a huge Razer logo on my controller.

What do?

Pssh. The only red stripe I'll be spending my money on is a Jamaican beer. I don't have anything good to say about this.

I don't give a shit about their little DLC schemes as long as they don't try to pimp my epic Adept mind powers. I might go through the whole thing on Insanity with only a basic pistol, just to make a point.

You know what? On second thought I might not even use the pistol.

The controller is cheap. The left trigger broke on mine(really???) & the longer analog sticks DO NOT help your aim in fps games.

@Stinky:
I've had a Razer Destructor for a few years and it's fantastic. It still looks like the day I bought it. Just be sure to buy heavy plastic or metal mouse surfaces. They last the longest.

Hold up.

Is this the reason why EA couldn't (wouldn't) add controller support to the PC?

They're assuming that if folks bought the controller, they wouldn't buy the keyboard because they'd have one already?! The nerve.

Razer is the Apple of PC peripherals. Everything is over priced, but unlike Apple their support is complete shit. When you get a Razer product that works you're set, but every single thing they make has a higher than average failure rate because they use the cheapest parts they can find and charge you for the logo they slap on it.

oh yay! already existing razer products, just with a red stripe on the side! don't get me wrong, i love razer! i have a blackwidow as well as a naga, and just for the heck of it i picked up a kabuto from bestbuy. i just don't see the point in branding those products, they look better in their normal sleek black state.

Honestly I haven't found that to be the case, every Razer item I have owned has had some issue however small.

I was initially interested but the mouse and shipping total is like £83 ($131). I can't really justify spending that amount just because it says N7 on it.

Yep, still glad I am knot buying this. I know this is all optional and probably minor, but seeing EA milk Bioware like this disgusts me.

The bag looks like an actual quality bag, but fuck paying £70(yes, pounds. So thats like, 1349 of your silly american money) to tell the world that I'm a massive ME geek.

The Iphone case on the other hand...

@zerodown actually he was just correcting a horribly incorrect post. £70 is only $110.

People need to calm down about the DLC - if you play the Mulitplayer Demo and then read the description of the DLC (besides the Collector AR) it's just in game booster packs - nothing exclusive, nothing you cannot get on your own. It's really not that bad.

For those that have not played the MP Demo yet, you earn credits while playing, these can be spent on 'Recruit' or 'Veteran' packs - they contain 6 random items, the Vet packs give you a better chance at 'uncommon' items. So besides the promise the Collector's AR specifically, that's what the DLC is. Calm down, carry on.

Seems that DLC is such BS. Toss in something that took 1 person 30 min to make for the game and get paid or added to large purchases for a kickback. Fup em in da A.

Hmm. I have a rusty old MG in my backyard. I'm going to paint it black, give it an offset red and white racing stripe and put the "N7"
logo in the center of each wheel, then I'm putting it on eBay.

I'd argue that the Blackwidow expert is one of the cheaper mechanical keyboards, but the Razer brand in general is pretty shit aside from that.
