That Reaper image does intrigue me, as does everyone buying into the idea that the Alliance simply believe that the Geth and not the Reapers were involved at the Battle of the Citadel. It seems to me that the consensus is that this is bad storytelling. It seems more true to me that the Alliance aren't that stupid at all, and really what they're promoting is just a cover story for a deeper, more disturbing truth.....

Or they are indoctrinated.

I liked the James-bond styled mission a lot. Better than Zaeed's loyalty mission, by far. The new SMG is awesome as well, and my FemShepard has some rather sexy new formal attire. And unlike the one we saw in the trailers, The female version isn't just a re-skin of that Cerberus uniform. Kasumi is cool, very unique combat wise thanks to her Shadow Strike ability, though I haven't gotten to try the Flashbangs yet.

My only complaint is the size of this thing. It takes up over 700 MB of space, which is a lot compared to Zaeed, who only takes up a fraction of that space on my 360's hard drive. It also took over a half hour to download, which was annoying. How that makes sense, I have no idea.


Yeah, that was all the stuff that the seven bucks was for.
Hopefully we don't have to hear people complaining about the price anymore, seeing as it's adding new content to the disc, not an almost complete mission and character.

.......Indeed. We may yet be facing the greatest threat to the Galaxy ever seen entirely alone, unble to trust our own supposed 'allies'.

I thought it was really well done, I love the new SMG, alot more accurate and more stopping power than the the other two imho, Femsheps dress was alot better than male sheps tux. all of the easter eggs in it were great, I missed the DA:O one the first time I ran through the vault.

Speaking of the size of the download, is it my imagination or are the load times between levels on the Normandy now quicker than they were? ie is there new game code in the dlc too?

I'm going to have to replay this right away. Was a bit shorter than what I wanted, but I liked what I got. It was different than the other missions, at least to a point. The Port Observation deck is great. femShep looks sexy as hell in her little black dress. The biggest down side was I couldn't interact w/ Kasumi, but we already knew that. Hope she turns up in ME3.

For some reason the dress really accentuates how broad Shepard's shoulders are. And she still walks like she's in armor.


Well, she is wearing high heels.

I missed the Reaper image that several here mentioned. I recorded several of the cutscenes and will look for it. Pity that being a soldier, my character is unable to use the new smg.

I just finished it and thought is was pretty fantastic. It felt fresh and creative, the party was a great idea, maybe a few more dialogue wheel conversations with some of the "deranged criminal minds" would have been cool, but minor complaint. Great voice actor for the bad guy, South African I think?

It did kinda dumb down a bit when the combat kicked in but that was to be expected and it was actually a challenging mission, with lots of flanking and I died twice on Normal difficulty.

Kasumi is one of the most likeable characters I've come across in the game. She is nice, but not annoyingly so - mysterious, but not obnoxiously so (Sten) - and quite badass. The ending really developed her a lot despite it's briefness. Next time I do a full playthrough, she will definitely be in my squad.

$7 is quite a lot for a reasonably short DLC but this one felt very professionally developed and ranks up where with Shale and Return to Ostagar as my fav DLCs of late (Firewalker and Feastday being the worst).

So, anyone going to make a Kasumi fanclub? There's one bound to pop up in the next few days.

They could be going for a Neville Chamberlain type parallel. Definitely picked up that vibe from the Council.

Well, you could argue it's worth it if you plan to use Kasumi through the entire game.

So overall I think it was pretty good. Took a bit less than one hour on hardcore, but the mansion and the views were very nicely done. The puzzle-solving wasn't really difficult, but Kasumi was an interesting companion along the way.

Haven't tried the SMG yet, and basically ignored her skills during the fighting. Was charging my way around kicking ass. She may have died once or twice.

The initial meet-up on the Citadel was the height of cheese though. You're told to look for a different type of advertisement kiosk, leading me to believe I'd have to run around Zakera Ward a bit looking for her. I was somewhat disappointed when you disembark the Normandy you basically trip over this ostentatiously placed ad terminal with her face barking out to you. Like no one noticed that this thing wasn't there yesterday, right in the middle of the floor? Sheesh.

Finally, I told her to keep the grey box thingy. I think the consequences of that decision will be an email in ME3 about it. I bet if you told her to destroy it you will also get an email with a different message. That's pretty much what I'm prepared to expect in terms of consequences for most choices.

Reason enough for me to buy it. Wonder if she has dialogue for all LIs
Damn it. Thought Mordin-speak would leave once out of Tali thread. Was wrong.

The reason why we never find out what's hidden on the graybox? The only person who knows that information is the one it came from. And he's dead. The choice comes down to deciding whether or not you want to risk Keiji being right about how dangerous the information was.

 Hah! Well don't you sound cynical. That thinking is understandable, though I would like to think that given the open ended nature of the grey box decision, Bioware will do a little more than a simple email message. Maybe I'm being a little too optmistic. And ditto on the advertisement. I didn't feel very secretive standing out in the open talking to a display.

All the information he has is in the graybox, the graybox keeps track of the owner's memories. We're handing out this dark secret to Kasumi so she can look at her lover from time to time.

It wouldn't surprise me to learn the Alliance was secretly working with the Reapers. That was the whole plot of Babylon 5, lol.
