It's currently on sale via LIVE. I only need Citadel to go half price and I can get back into ME3 and begin all the dlc.

That's surprising, Leviathan's going on sale for the second time yet Omega only been once and Citadel zero yet

[BlacJAC74]

Yeah, I picked up Omega when it was on sale. Missed Leviathan first time around, so snapped it up this time. ME3 discounts have been brutal this time around because they have only happened in drips rather than having a proper full ME3 sale.

Dragon Born, which was released around the same time as Citadel has been down to 50% twice since its release.

Looks like EA's trying to avoid DLC sales as much as possible. I don't get it, Skyrim DLC is one of the best selling ever, obviously in part thanks to Bethesda doing frequent sales

Maybe EA is more interested in simply maximizing money intake, even if it means that comes at the expense of higher sales numbers.

Yeah, EA loves keeping it's players in sale droughts. I think the last time PC players had a sale on Bioware Points was over 2 years ago. Bought ME2 DLC full price at about 40 $ so I could do a complete playthrough before ME3 came out. Now, I can wait as long as EA wants to get the ME3 DLC (Leviathan, Omega, and Citadel) at a decent price (still prefer earlier over later though)

It sucks though because you can get the game for super cheap a year after and then end up paying more for DLC that stays at the same price. Argh.. if they would just make a lump DLC package a year after, I feel like more people would spend their money.

hmmm...no sale for the ps3 peeps. I have the dlc already, but still rather odd that the sales don't run on all 3 platforms at the same time. -shrug-

I would think ME3 dlc sales have kinda sold what they're gonna sell at full price en mass by now.  I can see them making more money reducing it than they will keeping it at its current price.

Like someone said further up, ME3 can be bought for a fraction of the price they're asking for the dlc. Hell, it's possible to get ME3+Leviathan on the xbox for less than Citadel on its own.

^ Plus, the thrifty game buyers would be more likely to buy the game and all DLC at a reduced price to complete the experience. What you see instead are people buying the game and figuring out which 1-2 DLCs to buy at full price.

More than once have I bought a game I skipped solely because there was a way to get a DLC bundle or buy them on the cheap.

I know feel like a sucker for buying the DLC at full price, hooray for self-esteem
