Mass Effect 3 Extended Cut DLC Available Now

News | June 26, 2012 7:54 am
For those of you eagerly awaiting the Mass Effect 3 Extended Cut DLC (I'm talking to you, AJ), it is now availble for download on the Marketplace. The content is suppose to add additional cutscenes as well as an epilogue of sorts to give fans more closure than what we were met with at the end.

The download is a hefty 1.85GB download, so I am really excited to see what it has on offer. Bioware has recommended that players load a save prior to the attack on the Cerberus Base in order to get the most from the DLC. They have also mentioned that players will need to play through the closing stages multiple times in order to "experience the variety of possibilities offered by the new content."

Of course, no amount of additional scenes will ever detour our thoughts from the true hero of Mass Effect 3, so I ask for a moment of silence in honor of that silent guardian:

I would really like to start downloading this right now - but my wife is asleep and since my 360 is in our bedroom, she would probably skin me alive if I turned the TV on right now...

I got Master and Commander after downloading this and assaulting the Elusive Man's base. I didn't have enough points for it, but I still got it somehow.

Just finished the game with the new DLC and it certainly does make things a lot more clear about how your squad mates got back to the Normandy and how the Normandy and the rest of the fleet got out of the Sol system. It finally brings the closure that I was hoping for. I'm greatly pleased with the changes that this DLC has brought and has renewed my love for the Mass Effect series.

Noise wasn't the problem - it was the light from turning on the tv.

I chose the new Synthesis ending and it was a lot better than the first time around. Now, I just have to go back and go through the other 2 endings and see the whole picture.

Meh, I still didn't care for those endings, they still didn't show how anything you did across 3 games really had any effect on anything afterwards, it took them 3 months to add a whole grand total of 20 minutes of 'extension' for how many hours we invested into all 3 games? Oh well, people will still be unhappy :rolleyes:

All the endings still suck regardless of the added information that Bioware finally gave. I still feel like it was a waste of time for me to sit through the 3 games to get the same stupid endings. I would have liked to have actual different endings where your choice from the previous games matter. The only choice was the same ones as before and they all suck. Im not sure how anyone could be satisfied with these endings as the entire plot still comes apart with the star child and his random bullshit. The only way they could have made me feel better was to have Shepard see the star child for the first time and start screaming about seeing a ghost. Maybe add a little Scooby Doo comedy and have him run away. I would have appreciated more closure, oh well I guess.
