I'm playing through ME2 again. Loving it, but I'm very pissed I missed the DLC sale over X-Mas where every piece of DLC was 200 pts. I want to play Shadow Broker but I don't want to spend $13 on it.

Give it a few months and get the PS3 version with all the expansions on-disc (well, it MAY be d'load codes)

Out of all of them Shadow Broker is the only one that's actually close to being worth playing and the effects playing through it have on the story basically have to be in ME3. The other DLC is likely to merely get a mention in a radio/news service broadcast. Overlord is fun, though, and for cheap I'd say go for it. The end of it is ME2 at its best - tense and epic.

Why spend what will likely be $70 to get ~$20 of additional content (Shadow Broker/Overlord) for a game I already have? I'm sure the DLC will go on sale again at some point. Possibly around the time the last piece comes out prior to ME3.

'Cause if they're on disc, a couple of months after release you'll get it for $30 or maybe even less, play it, then sell it for $15 or so, making it cheaper in the end for just waitin' a bit longer. And you can sell you 360 copy and make extra cash. The major benefit of owning the physical copy.
If they're not on disc and are d'load codes instead, then you may end up having to wait a little while longer for it to come down to a reasonable price, like I have been with Borderlands GotY for the last while

If you live in Canada and haven't payed ME2 yet, you'd be an absolute bozo not to buy it for $15 from Amazon.ca.
