PC Pack Code Issues
Edit
On the PC Version of Mass Effect, a code was provided for the purchaser to obtain a copy of Bring Down the Sky for free. However, since the closure of the old BioWare forums, PC users are unable to automatically get a key for this DLC.
For players wanting to obtain this DLC, go to EA's help page to download the DLC installer and retrieve the serial key in the instructions.
Pricing
Edit
Bring Down the Sky was originally released for 400 Microsoft Points on the Xbox 360 and 400 BioWare Points on PC. The Xbox 360 price was eventually reduced and is 80 Microsoft Points, and the pack is also included at no additional cost with the Platinum Hits Edition of Mass Effect for Xbox 360. In addition, the pack is currently "downloadable for free" for the PC version.
