Free Pinnacle Station DLC for Mass Effect PC

[ManaByte]

If you grabbed Mass Effect for PC during the Steam sale and want the $5 Pinnacle Station DLC for Free, here's a deal.

Wendy's is giving out $5 coupon codes for the EA store here:
https://wendys.promo.eprize.com/bigscore/

Just fill out the info and they'll email you the code. It says EA Sports but it works for anything at all in the EA store and since Pinnacle Station is $5, it's free with the code.

Edit: And it DOES work with the Steam version, I just installed it fine.

I didn't even know there was any other DLC other than Bring Down the Sky.

Bring Down the Sky was the first, and BioWare has it for free on their site. You just need to input your CD Key to get the CD Key for it.

Pinnacle Station came out in August and EA charges $5 for it, but the Wendy's deal will get you it free.

By all accounts, Pinnacle Station was awful.

[Joe Molotov]

Oh well, it's free. I was getting ready to do a ME playthrough anyway before ME2, so I'll check it out.

This. You couldn't pay me to play it.

I was right there with you until the last two letters of the OP's subject line.

Don't worry, nobody bought it for the 360 either.

[cool breeze]

yeah, I got both this and the old DLC for when I play ME1 on PC later on.  I didn't bother with them on the 360 since they came out after I finished the game, and I assumed they were just extra side missions as crappy as most in the main game.  But for free and there from the start, why not.

[Joe Molotov]

LOL, it's a battle arena. Why would they think anyone would want that? It's like the combat in Mass Effect is soooo great, they knew you'd be jonesing for more!

3rd DLC to be an endless planet surface for driving Mako around

I did! It's another one of the unopened ones in the queue which I should have just waited for. I hate it when I think I got a good deal, and then I still haven't played it by the time Platinum Hits edition or GOTY Edition is released. For less than I paid.

[Kestastrophe]

I paid for the 360 Pinnacle Station as well  :'(. I had to preserve my 100% achievements in that game

[Yeti]

I never knew about the second DLC for Mass Effect either. It's just an arena? No story or dialog trees?

It's a fun game.  If you don't care about completion or 'cheevs, ignore the off-planet sidequests (which are all the same: drive shitty Mako around, find an item or two, find base, kills some dudes.  Repeat.) and just stick to the main game, and you'll really enjoy it.  It was a good game.

[The Fake Shemp]

Oh, I love the game, but the DLC sucks.

It's free on the PC, so who cares. I wouldn't spend spacebucks on it.

[Smooth Groove]

Never heard of it but I'll check it out. 

I actually liked ME's combat.  The shooting was crap but throwing enemies around with the force-like powers was fun.
