Mass Effect 2 is free ("on the house") through Origin.  With all of the DLC, it's a 9.7 GB download.  This is a good game for the best possible price.

Thanks.

Needs their client software I guess, and not only for download?

Origin is a lot better today than it was a decade ago.  It works pretty well, though I still have less than 5% as many games in my Origin account has I have through Steam.

How do you get all the DLC for free? Mine is just added to account but still makes me buy the DLC... only reason I wanted it was for the DLC (Shadowbroker) as I obviously already own the Digital Deluxe version on steam from when it came out. But Origin still pops up asking me for Bioware points rubbihs which is STILL never on sale. It's so BS.

Mass Effect and Origin link to your EA account.  EA still remembers which DLC bonuses are linked to my account.  I also purchased this game through Steam when it was first released.

Even Mass Effect Trilogy doesn't come with the DLC for 2 and 3. It sucks, because I consider Kasumi, Zaeed, Shadow Broker, and Arrival to be essential for the full ME2 experience. That's why I'm not buying Andromeda at launch. They said they're not going to have a season pass, but that doesn't mean there won't be paid DLC like before. I'm not dropping $60 on an incomplete game, unless they promise free future content updates like Blizzard did with Overwatch.

Ok well then it doesn't come with ALL the DLC for free then, so you could edit the OP maybe....

Hey, I may have to play this now. Thanks!

Guess they're trying to get people warmed up to origin again before Andromeda. Like I believe most people do, I only have origin installed for the short time I'm playing one of their games. There's only room for one platform in this town.

You have to log into EA inside game to get access to DLC. This is what offer gives:
Mass Effect™ 2
- Cerberus Network
- Normandy Crash Site
- Zaeed - The Price of Revenge
- Cerberus Arc Projector
- Cerberus Weapon and Armor
- Firewalker Pack
- Mass Effect 2 Soundtrack
- Mass Effect 2 Digital Art Books
- Mass Effect 2 Documentary

I went for this last week, glad to add another game to the collection... now I remember that I actually paid for it on Steam years ago, lol
