EA has finally bundled all of the DLC for Mass Effect 2 and 3 in two packages. So now you can grab the Mass Effect Trilogy Pack (which include some but not all DLC) and the ME2 + ME3 DLC bundles to complete the entire trilogy.

In the past, you used to have to buy "BioWare Points" to pay for the ME2 and ME3 DLC individually. EA or BioWare had never released a "Game of the Year" or Complete edition for ME2 or ME3 that included all their DLC. Even the "Trilogy Pack" was incomplete and missing many ME2 DLC and all ME3 DLC. Those stupid BioWare Points never got a discount or went on sale, so in the past you would have to spend over $100 to buy BioWare Points to pay for all the DLC for ME2 and ME3 in order to experience the ME trilogy to the fullest.

About two or three weeks ago, EA finally bundled all the DLC into two packages less than a month ago. However, they are only available on Origin. Right now, the DLC bundles are $25 each. Origin's best discount is 75% off, so you can wait for the discount.

BTW, Dragon Age 2 DLC also got the same treatment and has a complete bundle now.

LOL@ me too and me three.
Only into MassEffect 1 the others I did not care for. Something to do with the ammo thing and Kanye west being in 2 and 3 had a crap ending so I stick with my first game and one hell of an amazing game it is.
I have held off playing Mass Effect 1 and buying Mass Effect 2 and 3 for years because there was no way to buy ME2/ME3 with all the DLC included for reasonable prices. I calculated the cost of buying BioWare Points to get all the ME2 + ME3 DLC, and it would have cost me $120 to $150 to get all the DLC and complete the ME trilogy. Now you should be able to grab the Trilogy Pack + ME2 DLC Bundle + ME3 DLC Bundle to complete the trilogy + DLC for less than $20 (if you wait and buy all of them on sales.)

Last week I bought the Trilogy Pack last week for 85% off. The Trilogy is missing most ME2 DLC and all ME3 DLC. I installed Origin last weekend and started playing ME1. Now I just have to wait for the 75% sale for ME2 + ME3 DLC bundles.

johnnygoging: the Mass Effect games had DLC?
Yes, lots of them, and most of them should have been included in the core games. BioWare cut out essential contents from the main games and sold them as DLC.

Unfortunately, Origin is required for ME3. I finally installed Origin last week. It's okay but more intrusive than Steam or GOG. (i.e., unlike Steam, I can't set Origin to start "offline" - I have to start it online and then manually set it to offline every time; I can't launch Mass Effect or a "favorite" game from the Windows taskbar notification icon with a right click - I have to launch a game from the Origin client itself; Origin keeps popping up when I quit Mass Effect, etc.)

Can I launch Mass Effect 2 in Origin now because for some reason I can never get that game to launch. On Origin.

Steam version I can launch.

If my memory serves me right, you had to rename an exe file to be able to run ME2 on Origin. I can not remember the name (pre or post) yet that may give you a lead to start with.

EDIT: found it here.

Rename MassEffect2.exe as MassEffect2Launcher.exe
Rename ME2Game.exe as MassEffect2.exe

If they brought them here I would actually buy them...
Mass Effect on GOG in 2018? Maybe a bit optimistic but possible. ME2 and 3 in 2028? Sounds just about plausible. Would I play them if they would come here? Probably if I can afford them and still am healthy enough to be able to play such games (steady enough hand, fast enough reflexes and such).

Origin is not an alternative to me. I am so pissed at not being able to play my legal copy of Crysis 2 due to their bloody drm that I am not buying anything tied to EA's drm systems ever again. There (read: HERE ;-)) are other games to play.

I just bought #1 but I have no clue when I'm going to get to it. TBH I'm getting a little sick of people telling me how awesome it is. :P

BUT I'm not giving up yet. I'm going to keep trying Witcher over and over until I either start to like it or I burst into flames.

I put it back on my backlog (I'll probably try it after I do a complete run through of the original Phantasy Star series) buy I have a high probably of just bursting into flames on that one considering how hard I had to force myself through it the last time.
I don't see any way of getting Mass Effect Pinnacle Station and Bring Down the Sky without buying the bundle. But I already have ME2, and I think it would be cheaper to get 1 & 3 separately. The bundle is 40 euros, ME3 is 10 and ME1 is 8.

Now if only GOG would convince EA to bring ME 1-3 and Dragon Age 2-3 here, I'd be so happy :)
