    Does something like this exist?
    All I can see is the classics range one.
    I'm looking for on that has all the DLC with it.

    I just got ME2 and I'm enjoying it so much I want to play the first before I go much further.
    I'd prefer to get a complete edition tho. Cheap as possible.

    Thats the classics one isn't it?
    Is that all the DLC on that disk? Or just some?
    The best description I can find is "additional DLC".

    Just to "warn" you that ME1 is a bit different from ME2.

    Combat isn't as good but the story is much better.

    Don't think it's the classic one but to be honest I think there's only one DLC pack available anyway for ME1.

    I've read the reviews or ME2 that say that.

    I feel a tad lost with the story at times so I'm wanting to play the first for that. Plus I can get ME3 and complete the story.

    I missed Halo 2 and I still feel like I missed out on the story there, and its story isn't as intrigate as ME.

    Ah right, thats probally it so then, cheers. I'll order it now when I get some peace here.

    There's only 2 DLCs for ME1; Bring Down The Sky (80 microsoft points, ~ €1) and Pinnacle Station (400 points, ~€5)

    I downloaded them this week, but haven't played them. From what I understand, they're not tied into the main story at all, and they're just fun side missions.

    You can pick up an 800 Microsoft Points card for around €10 on gamecards.eu, and you'll still have 320 left over to buy more stuff.

    According to Play, the classic edition only features the Bring Down The Sky DLC

    Mass Effect 1 is a bit more RPG oriented, i missed walking about the huuge areas of the Citadel when it came to ME2.
    ME2 = a bit more focus on action and combat
    It also lacks the lovely 80s synthy soundtrack very similar to Blade Runner,

    whereas ME2 was a bit more orchestral.

    While I agree with the differences mentioned above between both games, I think it's essential that ME1 gets played through first.

    Thanks guys.
    Its not on the HMV site so I might get it from Play at the uk price. The advantage of having an address in NI I can use.:P
