Despite the fact that ninety-five percent of the gaming community seem to hate it more than lung cancer, there was a lot to like about the final entry in Bioware’s flagship sci-fi franchise. Okay the writing was occasionally a little stilted, the slimy fingers of corporate greed certainly tarnished things, and the ending was a textbook example of a creative team having no idea how to end their trilogy, but the colourful, lovingly detailed universe still managed to tap into my Star Wars obsessed inner child. With the release of the excellent (if belated) Extended Cut, I felt that my exquisitely bearded yet tragically potato-faced Commander Shepard had finally been given the closure he deserved. The ruthless bastard.

Yeah if you are stuck on a 360 that is the best value for $5 you can get. Just keep in mind Half-Life 2 is 10 years old, and Halo 2, is also 10 years old, and a better game. If at all possible throw that $5 towards an X1 and The Master Chief Collection.
LOL, where can you get a XB1 and the Halo MCC for $10? I'll buy 10 more!
Am I being really dumb and missing something?
Anywho I bought the Orange Box, Last time I played it was on Steam years back, Portal is always a joy!
BioWare released the Leviathan DLC approximately a year ago. Press Start to Begin takes a look back at the DLC now that the Mass Effect series is complete to see if and how it fits into the overarching story.
"Don’t get it for the story. The story in this DLC just doesn’t flow with the story in the actual game."
I wholeheartedly disagree. I have been recommending Leviathan to my friends for the story alone. When combined with the Extended Cut DLC, this served to fill certain gaps left in the plot. The finer points of the author's critique regarding the story amount to little more than nitpicking, in my opinion.
Keep beating that dead horse.. This DLC never added anything to the actual game in the end. Just a tease, not really disproving the Indoctrination theory but not really proving it exists either.
From the article - So, N7 Day was last Thursday and it came along with a special gift for all of Mass Effect fans: we could get to see the very first image of what will become –soon enough, we hope- the fourth console installment of the franchise.
The game is all about cycles, the ripple effect and the everlasting battle against extinction, but not only human extinction; it is extinction in a whole new scale, and the redefinition of the concept of life.
Not looking that much interested
