Console fanboy alert! Battle stations everyone! :p
I can't wait for the new DLC to eventually arrive, it's about time they do what they promised all of us..
 
Awesome - should maybe install it again. Only played through it once and hardly did the side missions, haven't even done the previous dlc . Should keep me busy until Dragon Age ...
 
Problem seems to be related to the xbox 360 version of bring down the sky. It seems to be incompatible and the same applies to the steam version.

PC version works fine. I just downloaded and tested it. Both dlc's install and are in the game.

Also a hint if you want to buy this dlc use internet explorer. There's a problem with ea store and firefox so it won't allow you to get to the checkout point when using ff.

Will report tomorrow on how good the dlc is. Won't have time to play right now. Size is 251mb.
 
Hmm from what I've read so far about DLC is that it's not really worth installing Mass Effect again. I look forward to the sequel though! :)
 
Had some time to play and finish most of it. As an rpg dlc it sucks but as a fps combat simulator its fun. But there is very little in terms of rpg elements involved.
 
That is what the reviews also said - kinda like Star Trek's holodeck ...

I think I will skip this one then thanks - rather save up for Dragon Age
 
Just started playing the game and loving it.

A note to windows 7 users:

My copy wouldn't run on Windows 7 with ATI graphics. Once I installed the update it worked fine.

There is a documented problem with installing and running Mass Effect on Windows 7 RC so, before you go trawling forums like I had to, just download the update:)
