Mass Effect 2: The Arrival review

Mass Effect 2 is an excellent game. While I personally feel that it is slightly eclipsed by its predecessor in the effectiveness of its storytelling mechanics, it is nonetheless a dramatic and epic experience. Unfortunately, following in the footsteps of the original, this particular slice of downloadable content is a bit disappointing. Now, before I get ...
