The Severed DLC featuring Gabe was a console exclusive and never released on PC.

All DLC weapons and armor are in first store in game for 0 credits.

You can't get it on PC sadly, well to my knowledge. You can still get it from the Xbox store but you need a Xbox. Your not really missing out on anything really anyways.

dang that sucks. while i agree that with the implication that its not that important i still think it deserve the preserve i had fun with it back in the day and i thought it was well done. it had the speedy necromorphs in it and they could be such a bastard.

can't even really get the DLC on Xbox anymore either since the 360 marketplace shut down earlier this year

At this point your only option is either PS3 or RGH-ing your Xbox 360, like I did (I also have CFW on PS3, though). It will never come out on PC and as far as I know, you can't really buy it anymore either. Not sure about back-compat modern consoles.

A PC hacker managed to unlock the baseline DLC on the PC which made EA freak out and release it all for free on PC only to avoid the debacle. How the hell did they do that? Well, the disk version came loaded with day one DLC (guns and armor skins) so all they did was make a file that unlocked it without paying. This is why the down the line DLC, Severed, is console exclusive. EA being petty as ♥♥♥♥ decided to make the DLC console exclusive to shaft the entire PC base because a single person hacked their DLC slop. Now that generation of consoles is dead so it's lost media.

I played the DLC and it's not really much to write about anyways. You won't miss anything by just watching it on youtube. Gabe handles exactly like a reskined Isaac and he even knows how to hack like him. There's nothing unique Gabe can do and it's just a generic rush to save your girl while government suits come to kidnap her. It's also not terribly long considering it's a mere hour long barring the high amount of enemies it tosses at you to slow you down.


You're also getting shafted on the bonus "conduit rooms" if you didn't buy Ignition. A game that no longer exists so you have to get a save file that tricks the game into thinking you own Ignition. All so you can have free access to loot rooms minus the power node requirement, it was basically pay to win via proxy. Hacker suit doesn't even look good or make sense. Isaac would still die in a vacuum if his skin was exposed but just his face was covered.

Overall the dead space 2 DLC situation was a ♥♥♥♥ show between closed system consoles and PC where you could easily manipulate game files and was probably the core reason why EA made Origin to have much stricter control over their titles and DLC permissions.

Well, conduit rooms were also able to be opened up via a mod/hack that probably trips the flag of whether or not there's Ignition data saved

Don't doubt it but for the longest time (since DS2 release) and still more practical method is just downloading a modified save file that tricks the game into thinking you got Ignition. There's even Nexus mod files that let you do it too. Straightforward drag and drop and maybe some file renaming.

Those types of mods alone are how I even got to see the ignition unlocked content, because I never wanted to spend the money on a glorified motion comic
