The pay-off for these comes with the passage of time, making it the gift that keeps on giving. You can also invest a few thousand credits in various missions, undertaken on your behalf by the Shadow Broker's operatives. Unlocking the Shadow Broker's base as an open location, to which you can return at your leisure, you get such perks as a terminal where you can purchase mining manifests, marking mineral rich planets on your Galaxy Map and saving you a lot of tiresome scanning. The prize for victory is access to the Shadow Broker's network, a vast resource of information that proves both entertaining and indispensable. You see, it's only once the story is resolved that the true benefit of this DLC becomes apparent. Obviously, the risk of spoilers is even greater here, so if you don't want to get even a sniff of a hint of what might unfold, skip to the score at the end now. It even takes into account the romantic entanglements you may have made during your two-game career, without painting itself into a corner that won't make sense to those who haven't popped their virtual cherry.įor all its successes, Lair of the Shadow Broker's real treasures lie at the end, however. There are cut-scenes to rival anything in the full game, and new dialogue that allows for any combination of characters you might take with you.

Clocking in at over 1.5 GB, this is clearly more than an off-the-cuff cash grab.
