'Bring Down the Sky'

Mass Effect fans who've run through the game a couple of times (don't laugh, I know a few who have) get another reason to play today.

The first downloadable content pack for the space epic released today.

“Bring Down the Sky” includes an uncharted world that introduces a new alien race: the Batarians. In the storyline, a Batarian extremist group has hijacked a mobile asteroid station in the Asgard system, and have set the asteroid on a collision course with the nearby colony world of Terra Nova.

It's up to you, as Commander Shepard, to save the millions of innocent civilians before the asteroid impacts the planet.

The 90-minute download pack is available for 400 MS points via Xbox LIVE. You'll also be able to earn 50 new Gamerscore points.

I'm adding something to my "to do" list: find some time to play more Mass Effect.
