New Mass Effect DLC Released

Monday, March 10th, 2008
ilimmassEffectbatarian

The new Mass Effect downloadable content was released onto Xbox Live today for 400 Microsoft Points, which translates to $5/£3.40/€4.65 in real money. This DLC pack comes with 50 Gamerscore Points to achieve, along with a decent sidequest, as opposed to the mostly disappointing ones that were in the full game.

Major Nelson has all the download details:

Content: Bring Down the Sky

Price: 400 Microsoft Points

Availability: All Xbox LIVE regions

ESRB Rating: M (Mature)

Story Description: Batarian extremists have hijacked a mobile asteroid station in the Asgard system, setting it on a collision course with the nearby colony world of Terra Nova. Only you can save the human hostages on the asteroid and reroute it before it crashes into the world, killing millions of innocent civilians.

Size: 253.40 MB

This is all well and good, but if you’re in the unfortunate position of having a save at the end of the game like myself, you will not be able to play this sidequest, and you would have to play through a new game (continuing with your old character if you so choose) to get to the part where you gain full control of the Normandy, where the new side-quest will appear on the star map. Initial reports of the content have been fairly promising, and for 400MP, it’s not going to break the bank, so it should be worthwhile.

Shredz64 is very real and very shredding

Monday, March 10th, 2008

Filed under:

Remember that time when we told you about Shredz64 and we were all excited and stuff? Well, friend, sometimes dreams do come true, and Toni ended up completing his Shredz64 project in style. In case you need a refresher, Shredz64 is all about bringing a Guitar Hero-style experience to the Commodore 64 — which, in addition to holding much sentimental value, is quite the musical device in its own right. He has a custom-built “PSX64″ interface for plugging his PS2 Guitar Hero guitar into the C64, which he’s having produced for sale alongside a 5 1/4-inch floppy disk of Shredz64, but the real magic is the software itself. The C64-synthesized songs sound great, and interface is like Guitar Hero or Rock Band without all the annoying fluff. Check out the videos after the break for everything in action.
