Mass Effect 3: Citadel will be their "final sendoff" for Commander Shepard, though EA and BioWare aren't releasing many details. All they've pointed out is that the DLC lets players "reconnect" with favorite characters from the Mass Effect games. The BioWare blog states: With unique content and cinematics featuring your friends and romance interests in the Mass Effect trilogy, Mass Effect 3: Citadel offers one final chance to see the characters you have known for years and rekindle romances. Citadel also promises Shepard a living space on the Citadel, which you can furnish (Yay?), plus new areas to explore like the Silver Coast Casino and the Armax Combat Arena. Yeah, that's not a whole lot to go by, but if I highly doubt that's going to prevent droves of loyal Mass Effect fans from picking it up. After all, many were dissatisfied with the lack of attention given to said favorite characters in Mass Effect 3. BioWare is really treating this like it's their last hurrah for Shepard, too. As for the second bit of DLC, that'd be Mass Effect 3: Reckoning for multiplayer. It'll unlock new weapons and character kits, including the Geth Juggernaut, Female Turian Raptor, Talon Mercenary, Alliance Infiltration Unit, and more. Weapon-wise, you'll get the the Geth Spitfire Assault Rifle, Venom Shotgun, Lancer Assault Rifle, Geth Scanner, and Assault Rifle Omni-blade. Mass Effect executive producer Casey Hudson gave a lengthy statement on behalf of the team: “The team has poured heart and soul into Mass Effect 3: Reckoning and Mass Effect 3: Citadel. As the launch of these chapters near, the feeling around the studio is bittersweet. We have always been humbled and driven by the passion of our fans for the Mass Effect trilogy. We hope fans will enjoy spending more time with some of their favorite characters -- we have certainly enjoyed spending time creating them. We’re excited to release this final sendoff for the trilogy and move forward into the future of the Mass Effect universe." The multiplayer DLC is, as always, free, and expected to arrive February 26. As for Citadel, that'll be out March 5 and cost you 1200 MP or $14.99 USD. In the meantime, we'll see if there are any solid gameplay details attached to Citadel that BioWare and EA aren't putting out.

	I have yet to play my second playthrough. Probably because the ending makes me wonder "whats the point?" But I'm gonna wait for all the DLC to go on sale. I'm gonna own it all, and before the next Mass Effect comes out, I'll play one last time through the whole thing. ------------------- Superhero Costumes

	And here I was about to swear that I wouldn't buy another bit of DLC for the game... But then I read the article... You just guaranteed at least one sold "Citadel" - DLC, RabidChinaGirl. And a 4th playthrough of the trilogy for me.

	Still didn't do a second playthrough, still could not care less for singleplayer, will however start saving up some credits for the amazing multiplayer. It's the only reason I still have the game sadly. ------------------- White 2: 0648-5281-4976 FINALLY A DINOSAUR FIRST PERSON ADVENTURE SURVIVAL GAME THE EVIL WITHIN The Horror Forum (for noobs)

	Excellent news! I'll certainly be getting the DLC. Having a 'space' on the Citadel sounds interesting, and the Armax Arena sounds like a 'deathmatch' type minigame. The Casino should be a fantastic addition......So, thats all well and good, but I just hope the actual missions we get are interesting as well. I just recently finished ME3 and despite peoples protestations about the ending I actually thoroughly enjoyed it. I just bought ME1 from the PS Store as well, so i'll be starting that soon and go through the entire trilogy. By the time I get to ME3, the DLC should be out by then.

	For 1200 points, it better have bang for its buck. As for multiplayer, that's awesome. ME3's multiplayer is up there with my tops. -------------------

	have they fixed & added if so then I would be interested if not I will not be buying anything bioware makes 1.the bloody Shepard haft breath crap 2.lack of dialog & dialog options 3.auto dialogue takes you out of the immersion of a game like mass effect 4.not really any side missions that you go on in stead we get scan this planet then that one boring 5.all of the missions we did get to go on was way to short 6.the lack of teammates in general let alone ones from mass effect 1&2 and hub worlds 7.the really lazy way they did Talis face using the trial version of Photoshop and in a bloody Pictures frame ( fully animated cut scenes not Pictures frame ) so in steed of giving us talis face we get Jessica chobot 8.all most no rpg side to mass effect any more 9.the stupid Casper the Genocidal Ghost and its so called logic that's one of 100 things wrong with the endings but I could over look the utter screw up of the ending if everything else was was fixed or if it had of been done right in the first place 10.through out ME1 & ME2 your decisions meant something unlike mass effect 3 where your decisions meant crap 11.through out ME3 we were gathering war assets which at the end of ME3 pretty much meant nothing 12. the Love interest of most of the characters was so badly done unless you only want liara and so on I loved the first two I have played them well over 20 times each sorry every time I see me3 I have to rant

	Despite what Bioware says, I think it's pretty obvious that Shepard was indoctrinated... That gasp he takes in the end is a sure giveaway... He couldn't have survived the fall from the Citadel. Shepard didn't make it to the beam... Harbinger nearly killed him. nearly.. And the last minutes of the game was a battle of wills, inside Shepard's head. Shepard was indoctrinated, and the Destroy - ending was him fighting the indoctrination. That's the only way the ending makes any sense... Shepard was indoctrinated. Shepard never made it to the Conduit. I think that Bioware were being lazy with the ending, and are trying to deny it. But there's no other way to explain the ending, other than Shepard's indoctrination. Shepard was indoctrinated, and Bioware is just trying to cover up their laziness... Disclaimer: The above post was written after a few pints. Any thoughts while being sober may be the same but the poster would keep them to himself.

	Oh, cool, I've been looking forward into getting yet MORE useless assets... NOT The only DLCs I bought were Javik and Leviathan, with the former, I felt stupid since it's just a character that SHOULD'VE been in the initial and already lacking squad roster, in the second, I was only curious about the Reapers' origins, though the truth was kinda stupid; didn't buy Omega DLC, mainly because the idea of Bioware/EA thinking that something was worth as much as a DLC from Skyrim, made me laugh, now, they're offering this other at the same price? I don't think so, just let this game die already and end its suffering. ------------------- "With great Bethesda games, comes great glitching"
