    My install of Mass Effect 2 went screwy, no problem there, sometime apps go flakey. The only way to fix it was to re-install the game (Proper legit retail one BTW, as are all my games at the mo)
    So I sat down to play my game, after waiting an hour to try and fix /re-install and I can't play my save games. I don't have the DLC. I went to the bioware website to re-download the DLC, but I can't. Apparently it's a 1 use code. So after spending an hour dicking about I'm now expected to PAY for the privelidge of playng a Game I bought just to finnish the mission.


    I went to get the DLC from another place. Took another 1/2 hour to find, download and *ahem* patch.
    And I now need another DLC to play my game.

    How can EA think this is a good idea.
    F-em

    I've gone and got all the DLC's, they can go stick their corprate heads up their corprate arses and whistle before I'll pay twice to play I bought at full retail.

    I'm F***ing furious.
    F*** 'em

    Did you sign in from inside the game to the Cerberus Network?

    Wouldn't let me, even with the email assigned to the cerberus code.

    It would not let me use the DLC code again, and would not let me retrive it through email.

    You don't have to reuse the code to get access to DLC you already bought (or at least I don't), it's just a huge pain to find. Let me see if I can figure it out again and I'll post how to do it.

    EDIT: Figured it out, they couldn't make it harder.Click this and then type in your login. That will bring you up to the page with all your authorized DLC and you can re-download it.
