Mass Effect DLC Announced: Bring Down the Sky
by Nick Breckon, Feb 06, 2008 9:12am PSTDeveloper BioWare today unveiled the first round of downloadable content for its hit Xbox 360 RPG Mass Effect.
Bring Down the Sky will introduce the alien race of the Batarians, an extremist group that has taken over an asteroid station in the Asgard system, sending it hurtling toward the colony world of Terra Nova. Players will be unsurprisingly tasked with averting the disaster, exploring a new world in the process.
BioWare estimates the scenario will last most gamers about 90 minutes, with 50 Gamerscore points hanging in the balance.
The content--the first in a series of such releases--is coming to Xbox Live on March 10, for the price of 400 Microsoft points ($5).

Now they want me to put up $5 for 90 minutes, just for one extra mission (and the obvious lure of 50 gamerpoints points)? That works out to about $3.33 per hour of fun, an increase of 75% for content I felt was worth the $2-per-hour, but not worth more. I think I'm going to sit this one out.
