I bought Lair of the Shadow Broker and was honestly very impressed. i've been thinking of getting overlord, mainly because recently I have been hungering for new Mass Effect 2 content. Is it worth it thoe? I mean...I know I will enjoy it, but I want to know if it story is good as well.

It's great. Shorter than S.Broker but great nevertheless.

Not as good as Shadow Broker, but still worth playing.

Mass Effect 2 was ruined by the fact that you couldn't romance Tali as a female. Utterly ruined.

It's nowhere near LotSB, but it's good if you want to extend the game for 1 or 2 more hours.

If you're expecting it to be better than LotSB then I would not recommend buying it. Nonetheless, it's always nice playing more Mass Effect 2.

Like the others said, not as good as LotSB, but solid nonetheless.

You can only buy the DLC direct from Bioware, here is the link :-

http://social.bioware.com/page/me2-dlc

To buy the DLC you will need an account at social bioware you will also need to link your game to that account. Once that is done you need to buy "Bioware Points" then you can buy the DLC. Overlord comes in at 560 bw points (which is about £4.33).

I wasn't that impressed. It felt like someone said "We need some jumpy sections in the game!" and decided to do that via a tank (rather than being a "proper" vehicle mission) instead of in the normal system. The idea is better than the execution.

It's not a bad buy, but it's far from memorable like shadow broker (which I played later) and beyond jumping around in the tank, feels like you're playing the normal game solo.

I found the car chase in LotSB superior to Overlord.

No. It's not especially when you can buy full games on sale for that price Like Amnesia is on sale now. Get that.
