lotsb > overlord > kasumi > arrival and I kinda liked overlord's hammerhead sections

Seconded. I think the story in Overlord is far better than the story in Stolen Memories. Plus, I really enjoy the Geth ship and final boss fight. Arrival would probably rank higher than Stolen Memories for me if there were any way to vary the outcome at all (obviously it has to end the way it ends, but it would be nice if choices made affected the outcome just a little).

As far as overall game value, however, I'd have to list Kasumi>LotSB>other because Kasumi gives a useful weapon and a useful squad mate, LotSB gives a useful bonus power and upgrades, and the others give an upgrade and/or story only.

But LotSB is longer than Kasumi, lets you continue a romance, has the Shadow Broker terminals and videos, has 2 amazing boss fights, lets you know what rich planets you have left, and is the best DLC I've played.

That is all true, and I want to point out that I am in the camp of all the ME2 DLC being good, but I'm talking specifically about overall game utility. Having an entirely new companion to use for the rest of the game (and from the moment you are free to move about the galaxy no less) is far more useful than the pure enjoyment that I get from playing through LotSB. The second ranking I listed is from a purely utilitarian viewpoint, for someone wanting to "get their money's worth."

Not at all, I genuinely dislike Arrival that much.  To each their own, if we all liked exactly the same things the world would be a boring place indeed.

To me, very much so.  I actually enjoyed Firewalker, if only for the small aspect of planetary exploration that we got (that and the Biotic Upgrade was nice to get before Horizon), I really missed exploration in ME:2.

As I said, thats simply how I feel, I am not saying that because I prefer x over y that y must therefore be bad, I'm simply saying its not to my tastes.

I'll cut Firewalker some slack, since it was free, but the no checkpoints deal was just...retarded.

It plagued Overlord as well.

I'd say LotSB > Kasumi > Arrival > Overlord

I love Lair and Kasumi because they add so much to the game and have very high production values. Arrival falls short because it is... well, short. It is small in scale with few characters. Overlord winds up last because while it has a big area the story is actually fairly short and again there are few characters.

Really I'd say Arrival and Overlord are about equal.

Just to make everyone happy with the title, let's change it to : "So we can all agree LotSB> everything by far"

I deleted Kasumi after having her on my first play through. She is completely irrelevant and absolutely meaningless. She doesn't fit anywhere in the crew or have purpose other than another character to clog up the rest and prevent expanding on preexisting ones.

Nope, disagree.

LotSB > Arrival > Kasumi > Overlord

Overlord was interesting and fun, but in subsequent playthroughs it's the only one I'm not excited about playing again.  It just seems too far removed from the main plot.

For me it is LotSB> Arrival > Kasumi> Overlord.

While Overlord has a beautiful emotional ending and astonishing views, I really dislike Hammerhead platformer in-between the stations, that's why Overlord is the last.

Mmm I'm inclined to agree with OP. Although it's a tough call between Kasumi and Overlord. I enjoy the content of Overlord a little better, but Kasumi offers a lot more new stuff.

So I say:

LotSB > Overlord/Kasumi> Arrival

Heck I even think Bring Down the Sky is even better then Arrival. I mean besides Object Rho where you survive enemy waves (you know it's funny everyone was complaining earlier how mere Batarians shouldn't be able to overwhelm Shepard after the Collectors, but apparently a research base personnel are the biggest threat Shepard's ever faced...) The stealth part is alright, but basically all they did was make the A.I. extremely dense. There's no new mechanics, no silenced pistol, or anything. It might have been interesting if you had to crouch to make less noise or something like that. Then when you factor in some really bad plot holes, there's very little appealing about Arrival.

Arrival was just made very sloppy. It probably didn't help they handed Arrival to a different studio. I thought there was suppose to be a dedicated ME2 DLC Team? They did alright given that they probably had less experience, but honestly should have stuck with the folks who made LotSB. That and whoever planned or wrote Arrival just kind of failed. I'd offer suggestions for how it could play out better, but it can't be fixed now.

I seem to be a minority by myself, but I really disliked LotSB (apart from the level design).

Overlord felt the least restrained, so I liked it best.
