HOWTO: Fix for Pinnacle Station for Mass Effect Platinum Edition now available on Xbox Live

The title update to fix the issue with Pinnacle Station on the Platinum Hits version of Mass Effect is now on Xbox Live.   What has people confused is it's not a title update for the game, but the Bonus Content disk, so people that are checking the game to see if there are updates are not seeing the updates.

The steps needed to activate the fix that I figured out myself.

1. Go into system properties, storage, games and select & delete existing Bring Down the Sky Content from your Hard drive under Mass Effect.
2. Go back to the dashboard and insert you “Mass Effect Bonus Content” disk and launch it.
3. You will be prompted to install an update, install the update and the Bonus Content disk will re-launch.
4. Install the Bring Down the Sky bonus content from the disk.
5. Exit back to dashboard and eject the bonus content disk.
6. Insert your Mass Effect disk and launch it

Enjoy being able to play Pinnacle Station with your character that you've already used with BDtS!!!!

YEAH!!!!
