More Mass Effect DLC, you say? While it isn't a confirmed fact just get, MTV Multiplayer gleaned some wishy-washy details about what could be next for the epic sci-fi adventure from Bioware co-founder Greg Zeschuk. From their interview:
Multiplayer: What can we talk about regarding “Mass Effect”?
Greg Zeschuk, Co-Founder of BioWare: Well we said it was a trilogy so there’s some stuff happening. We’re also looking at some other post-release content. We’re working away. BioWare’s pretty busy these days.
Multiplayer: We got our first DLC for the 360. People can expect there may be some more more coming?
Zeschuk: We’re talking about that. You know how we are. We’re always very circumspect until we can go “Aha! There it is!” With everything we build now, we want to have this long-term relationship with the customer and always have something for them to try. So we’re definitely looking at that for “Mass Effect.”
It recently occured to me while dicking around with DLC for a game that will remain unnamed here that not all content really provides a new experience for the consumer, but only rehashes the original game from a slightly different slant. Bring Down The Sky didn't seem to suffer from this syndrome, but I'm always sketchy about DLC because I'm a cynical bastard. Would you buy a second expansion if it because available?

And if the DLC somehow magically unsells my copy of Mass Effect. because I sold it when I beat it.
Cause it was a load of poop.
if the next DLC for Mass Effect is of the same "new planet to explore" format, then it'll have to include at least 3 at the same price. And at least one of the missions should push the story forward, rather than being completely lateral. otherwise, it just comes off as pointless exposition.
"Whatever you do, don't look natural."
@ Phantom: my favorite part, and by favorite I mean, the most awkward thing I noticed, is that at regular intervals, every character in the game will shift their weight back and forth for a few seconds while talking, then continue to stand their with arms at their sides.
Same here. I beat it, loved it, but sold it, cause I needed to buy Grid.
just yet*
The DLC provided some more play time for me on Mass Effect and I enjoyed it.
Citadel Missions. Detective Shepard going around solving mysteries n such around this giant space station.
