    Very solid add-on, though it's not very long (I finished it in about 90 minutes). Despite it's somewhat short length, it's highly playable, and satisfyingly bizarre. It's much darker in tone than any level in the core game, and it features some great psychedelic graphics and mind-f*cks that will make it worth playing through a few times. Highly recommended.

    By far the best DLC to come out with over 2 hours of gameplay. it contains 2 Achievements, and an extremely well written story. The ending of this DLC alone makes it worth the purchase. This is by far one of the best missions I've ever seen bioware craft. A lot of suspense, wow factor and characters you care about. Definitely one to own if you have mass effect 2. P.S. You also get to use the firewalker.… Expand

    An excellent DLC that brings new ideas to the game and also has the emotional core that made ME2 so special. Time is divided up between traveling with the Mako and fighting on foot so things don't go stale.

    An extremely good add-on which consists of one of the best missions in Mass Effect 2. The story is extremely interesting, with the ending of the final mission contained in the DLC being a particular highlight. These missions are varied and well-paced, with the action never lulling anywhere near boring. The only problem with these missions is that they can be finished within 2 hours. However, these 2 hours are as good as any that Mass Effect 2 can offer.… Expand

    Decent bit of DLC. Gameplay was good and story was intersting aswell. Not too long, but im not a fan of overly long games anyhow. Interesting twist story with moral dilemma. worth buying and playing if your after paragon/renegade points etc.

    Overlord is a great overall experience with an interesting story and a emotional ending that is one of the highlights of this DLC . You can ride the Hammerhead which is the successor to the Mako vehicle of the first game . It only took me about 93 minutes to finish the whole DLC , but it is highly recommended you play Overlord.

    Fun action, great audio, and multiple memorable moments make Mass Effect 2's latest add-on a winner.

    Overall, Project Overlord is a fantastic piece of DLC that either extends Mass Effect 2 for those still playing it or reignites the fire in those of us who loved it but have moved on.
