Even though I'm still going to buy it, mainly because I deleted my 100% complete Mass Effect 1 data, I thought this was going to be free to Cerberus Network owners.

At least if its a weapon pack you'd make your money back on how much you're going to use it, the comic is just a fast way to grab cash from those people who buy anything from BW...

It should have been free to Cerberus Network owners, in my opinion.

If it is the EXACT same interactive scenes then they really have no extra resources used for the other systems.

That comic was as bad as Evolition... maybee even worse for something that was suposed to be a substitute for ME1. It's released for all the completionists... and many of them will buy it... some won't even use it.

When you have faithfull fans and fanboys you can milk them. Easy.

ROFL oh god this is a good one, still can't resist nickel and diming your existing customer base eh Bioware ?  At least we now know how the comic was to be "funded".  I dunno call me picky but I aint about to chuck good money away over a 15 minute comic that offers you barely any choice when I can use the save game editor and it doesn't cost me a penny.

Although I will admit it is unfortunate that Bioware feels it is necessary to once again charge PC/360 users for something they give away free to PS3 users.  This would have been an excellent opportunity to garner a bit of good faith and show that you appreciate your loyal customers, instead you chose to try and screw a bit more cash out of em.

Wow I usually don't care about things like this, but yeah, so not putting forth additional money just to replace my lost Liara save. I'll wait to see what you offer newbies in ME3.

I could be wrong but I heard somewhere Microsoft *discourages* free DLC.

They managed to make the Cerberus DLC "free" I fail to see why this could not have been tacked onto the Cerberus Network as well.  At the very least they could have made it a token price of say 100points (or whatever the lowest price is on the xbox).  The fact that they have set this at a ridiculous 320 points shows to me they are actively trying to rip off their long standing customers.

ME1 says hello, and also 'dismisses claims' that Genesis is worth the extra MS points just to import into ME2.

People were calling for it. Their requests were answered.

Just another example of why you should be careful what you wish for, you mayu just get it.

Is this only available for 360? It's not showing up in the DLC page for me.

Would be more interesting if it could create a level 60 Rich save with all sidequests done in exactly the way you wanted and maxed paragon/renegade.

Might even be interested in that on the PC, considering I don't like to use other people's saves or third party editors.

I'd rather play the game. I like ME1 better than ME2. >.>

That looks like a ripoff. It's 15 minutes of content and you can download free saves with the same choices plus people like Conrad Verner that the comic doesn't have.

Will have to think about this. I have played mass effect 1 oh about 12 or 13 times AFTER ME2 came out. So, you can see that I am kinda sick of it.

And yeah, I do want to make more Sheps, about 3 or 4 more. This might be worth it. Not sure, would have to think it over. I do agree though, it should be free.

I won't pay 320 MP for something the PS3 got for free. Another kick in the balls for the loyal fans. It's probably not BioWare's fault though - I reckon EA forced them to make it paid. Anyway, I'm not planning to do any more ME2-only characters, so this is too late for me.

EA are almost as evil as Activision and Gameloft.

Genesis doesn't even explain all the races. like the geth, one of the main enemies in ME1.

Should just show IGN's Mass Effect In Five Minutes video and let the player make all the choices there.


Excellent. Hadn't seen that one.

I love this argument as it almost always misses the point.  No one has actually said nor have they implied that  spending $4 is an issue. After all, most of us tend to fork out a lot more than that when buying our games. For most f/t working adults $4 is a pittance and not many of those in that position would miss that $4, so yeah, if that's what our real concern was your comment makes sense, but that isn't the point people are making.

Look at how much LoTSB cost and then compare the content to this offering, then you'll see what people are complaing about.

No doubt someone will use the "No one is forcing you to buy it", but again, it's missing the point.  Their pricing policy sucks and BioWare are by no means the only devs that do this.

Well with the $4 argument - would you say this piece of crap comic is worth the Firepower Pack & Equalizer Pack combined?
