The cheapest of the three DLC packs, Return to Ostagar will retail out at $4.99 on the PSN, 400 magical Microsoft Points and 400 magical BioWare Points. I feel torn about all this content being released so soon after the full game's release. With this newest release, if you purchase all three content packages, you're looking at around $27.00. This is after you paid $50-$60* for the game at release. Then again, if you couldn't tell from Mike's
of the game, he really enjoyed the game and easily played out 40 hours while skipping some of the side missions without the additional content. BioWare is clearly delivering a lot of content and support for this title expanding the lifecycle of this game into next year. You know, just long enough to tide you over until Mass Effect 2.
