Shipping this week: Mass Re-release

In what could be considered the definitive version of Mass Effect, PC gamers will now have the ability to explore a galaxy of possibilities from the genius-Canucks at BioWare with the anticipated PC version of the best-selling Xbox 360 title. Updated from the original console release is a brand new tactical HUD, graphical improvements and a code to download the first content pack, available to Xbox 360 owners, for free.

Also shipping this week, in an epic list of re-releases, is the platinum edition of Lost Planet from Capcom. Lost Planet Extreme Condition: Colonies Edition adds new maps and modes to the established subzero multiplayer gameplay, including the ability to play as the enemy Akrid.

While we're happy to get two more solid PC titles this week, it would be nice if we could have some fresh content instead of console seconds. Seriously, we're not as jaded as we sound!

Full release list available after the jump!
