Retailer training quiz drops details on Mass Effect 2 DLC photo

If a recent Microsoft Expert Zone quiz for retailers has it right, Mass Effect 2 will be supported with downloadable characters, specific combat content, and full episodic content.

This morning a tipster dropped us word and images from the Expert Zone quiz for Mass Effect 2. Created so the retailer can sell the product with more information in tow, it teases what kind of optional content is coming to the follow-up sci-fi RPG.

It lists, specifically in the Xbox LIVE Features section, “planned episodic combat via DLC,” weapon and armor packs, new downloadable characters for the “campaign experience,” new downloadable worlds, as well as “full campaign expansions for download.”

It also mentions that the game will carry “periodic updates,” which features DLC, via Mass Effect 2’s unannounced in-game “Cerberus Network.”

So, in other words, BioWare is probably planning to support Mass Effect 2 in ways we wished the studio would have for the original. Sounds good, right?

Looks good. Hopefully they'll actually keep up this time and learned from their mistakes with Mass Effect 1.

I hope so. Mass Effect 1 DLC was too little too late.

If Bioware doesn't do a crap job with DLC like they did with KOTOR and Mass Effect, then they can rape my otherwise, paid DLC-hating wallet whenever they want.

I kind of miss the days where games had exciting stuff built in and you didn't have to pay extra to buy stuff that the developers decided to leave out so that they could continue to make more money from the same game.

Hopefully we're talking more along the lines of Fallout 3 and GTA VI in terms of episodic content.

I take these quizzes as I work for GameStop, and most games do have something along these lines in terms of a DLC question. I wouldn't get too excited.

From experience, the "Expert Zone" isn't always the most reliable source of information, but I definitely find DLC a likely answer.

I like the idea of the DLC, which is something I wish ME1 would have delivered as promised. But I wish it weren't so confusing at this point. And I hope the Ceberus Network gives us at least a discount on the paid DLC, maybe half off or something. That would work on sheer volume...

Serious Sam HD: The <a href="http://www.test-king.com/cert-MCSE-2003.htm">mcse testking</a> First Encounter reminded me of the simple joys of wave-based shooting mayhem, and news of Serious Sam HD: The Second Encounter only made me happier. However, the news we all want to know is this: Is Serious Sam 3 ever going to arrive, and if so, <a href="http://www.test-king.com/cert-SCJP.htm">scjp</a> when?

Well, we put that question to Croteam boss Roman Ribaric in no uncertain terms, and we were pleased with the <a href="http://www.test-king.com/cert-SCWCD.htm">scwcd</a> answer. Serious Sam 3 is totally still in the works, and what's more, we should be hearing more about it very soon.

"Serious Sam 3 is happening for sure," Ribaric tells us. "It is currently planned to be finished in 2010."

There you have it. A brand new, all-original, ball-busting adventure for Sam "Serious" Stone by 2010. In the meantime, <a href="http://www.test-king.com/cert-Security-plus.htm">security+</a> Destructoid has much more Serious Sam discussion on the way as part of

Race Against Time: Searching for Hope in mcse testking AIDS-Ravaged Africa is a non-fiction book written by Stephen Lewis (pictured) for the Massey Lectures. Lewis was the United Nations Special Envoy for HIV/AIDS in Africa. His criticism of the United Nations, international organizations, and other diplomats, including naming specific people, scjp was called undiplomatic and led to speculations that he would be removed from his UN position. In the book and the lectures, Lewis argues that significant changes are required to meet the Millennium Development Goals in Africa by their 2015 deadline. He explains the historical context of Africa since the 1980s, citing a succession of disastrous economic policies by international financial institutions that contributed to, rather than reduced, poverty. He connects the structural adjustment loans, with conditions of limited public spending on health and education infrastructure, to the uncontrolled spread of AIDS and subsequent food shortages. To help alleviate problems, he ends with potential solutions which mainly require increased funding by G8 countries to levels beyond what scwcd they promise. Book reviewers found the criticisms constructive and the writing sincere. His style focuses less on numbers and statistics, and more on connecting decisions by UN officials and security+ western diplomats to consequences on the ground in Africa.

A while back, I posted a quote from one of the Biodocs saying they are taking into account people's feedback about how the planetary exploration wasn't fun and working to improve it this time around. He talked about tying it into the main story more and making exploration more interesting.

You mean other than pulling out my hair and weeping at night, sort of, "Oh my god, how am I going to do this?" It takes a lot of planning, obviously, but essentially what we did is we looked at it and said, "Yeah we know that some of these guys are going to be dead. How do we 70-290 dumps | 650-568 dumps | 1Y0-A17 dumps account for that?" And the big thing was -- let's take Wrex for example -- we had to limit to some degree the roles that those characters are going to play because we have to say, "OK well they're coming back or they're not." And then 642-165 dumps | 640-553 dumps | 1Y0-A05 dumps we had to say, "Well what are their alternates?" So a lot of times there's characters that will fill their spot. But they don't just come in and go, you know, "I'm Wrex alternate," 642-456 dumps | RH202 dumps | 650-177 dumps or something like that. It's a new character who has his own back story, who has his own role in the game and whatnot.
----------------------------------------
70-291 dumps | 642-446 dumps | 642-974 dumps | HP0-D07 dumps | 70-648 dumps

That's where the hair-pulling-out comes out, because now I've got to, I've basically got to account for two characters in one situation. And that second character is, for the cinematic designers who have to create the conversation you need, who are saying, "You mean I've got to have a scene with two possible different characters in it?" And then the VO [Voice Over] people have to come in and they've got, "You mean I've got to VO this scene twice, in different ways?" So yeah.

As a self employed & employed person myself, I do everything by the book: Tax, VAT, the lot, but I'd advise you not to bother. With ?5k either way, the paperwork isn't worth it. If you declare a second income, you also have to pay a second class 5 national insurance contribution, or declare exemption, and you will also make yourself liable to tax inspections, as well as the additional work & maintaining turnover below the VAT threshold. Trust me, I know! As a higher rate taxpayer, you're not of any interest to the taxman for any further liability unless you stick your head above the parapet, but I admire your honesty.
