Bioware releases yet another free content pack for gamers who purchased a new copy Mass Effect 2. This Tuesday (March 23) the Firewalker pack will be availalbe to download via the Cerberus Network. The pack will include the Hammerhead hover-tank and five all new missions.
It seems like Bioware is really trying to show gamers that buying a game new, although it costs a few dollars more, allows the developer to offer more content to the consumer. When someone buys a used game, the developer doesn't see any of that money. I'm not going to lie and say that I've never purchased a used title, but with incentives such as these, it makes spending that extra five bucks for the new copy a lot easier.
(Note: BioWare will release its first paid DLC on April 6. They have not yet announced a price.)
