GameCritics: Mass Effect 2 "Overlord" DLC review

GameCritics give the latest Mass Effect 2 DLC, "Overlord", an 8/10 rating.

"Much to my surprise, the Overlord DLC actually makes a return to what I see as the original formula, and because of that, I can say with confidence that this...addition is the best yet."

The latest DLC expansion for BioWare's space-based magnum opus, Overlord, was released on June 15th and is available for 560 Microsoft Points. ($7.00) This DLC pack contains a story split into five "missions," two new Achievements and at least one new piece of researchable equipment.

Read the article. It's about the prevalence of horror themes in major, mainstream titles - even if actual horror games themselves have become less and less common.

Both Mass effects, the Oblivion and the Fallout. Have Bioshock waiting but too much gaming goodness at the moment to be able to get near it.

On a side note, I was over GTA 4 pretty quickly, didn't even finish it. Thought it was a bit over-rated myself...

Minerva's Den was so good. People say it was 4 hours long, but I remember getting at least 8 hours out of it. Minerva's Den almost feels like a fully fledged game.

Games With The Best DLC (RunDLC)

Lots of publishers support downloadable content, but not all of these updates are worth the dough. Activison’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, for example, has two map packs, but each one costs a whopping $15, putting them just outside the range of budget minded gamers. Other companies, however, release quality DLC that more than justifies the cost. If you intend to get the most from your games, these content heavy hitters will keep you playing for months.
