Actually, this thread was nearly on page 2 without a single reply. You just bumped it up.

How much is 560 MSP in real money? Seems like a weird number for points. :confused:
 
Kinda rubbish when the new single player content comes out with all the map packs included - otherwise this wouldve been a good deal...

This:

"Microsoft's unveiled the Gears of War 2 'Dark Corners' DLC, which will be arriving on both Xbox Live Marketplace and in shops as part of the 'All Fronts Collection' pack on July 28.

The Dark Corners add-on includes an impressive seven new multiplayer maps, as well as a "deleted" campaign chapter called Road to Ruin, which has Marcus and Dom dressing up like baddies and going all stealthy in the Locust Hollow.

The seven new multiplayer maps are (in Microsoft's words):

* Allfathers Garden: Honor the sacred grounds of the Coalition founders in this explosive map, where powerful weapons catalyze fast and furious action at this COG landmark.
* Memorial: Set near the Eternal Flame, which pays tribute to the fallen soldiers on the battlefield, a hard-fought battle ensues at the Tomb of Unknowns. Putting their flank formation and evasive skills to the test, players will fight to control the Boomshot.
* Sanctuary: Once a peaceful ground for reflection and remembrance, all that remains of the Sanctuary is the chill of death. Feast your eyes on the arsenal of weapons available as you make your way through the tight paths and blind corners of the Locust-damaged temple corridors.
* War Machine: In the abandoned train station that once served as a hub for travel, players will need to master the Longshot, Mulcher and Boomshot weapons to advance the fight while evading fire from the platforms above.
* Highway: Take the fight deep into the Locust Hollow in the complex passages of this underground highway system brimming with enemy vermin. Stick together, separate the enemy and have an exit strategy ready or it'll be a one-way trip.
* Way Station: Sitting in limbo between death and "processing" are Locust way stations filled with fallen COG soldiers. Tread lightly and practice patience as it's better to sacrifice firepower for stealth while navigating this minefield of hidden grenades.
* Nowhere: Set in the middle of what was once a destination for weary desert travellers, the land is now barren and devoid of life. Pick off your enemies with the Longshot sniper rifle and make your way to the stairwell with a well-fortified team during this intense firefight.


It's hitting Xbox Live Marketplace for 1600 Microsoft Points (£13.60).

The All Fronts Collection retail pack, which includes all released DLC, a poster AND a strategy guide will go for £14.99. Do they know we're in a recession? Erm, well yes, it looks like they do."
 
Yes there is, but it's a bit of a wait. I think the die hard GOW2 fans would have bought all the packs already and the rest are better off just getting the new dark corners dlc.

I've got flashback pack free with GOW2 already so enough maps to have fun.
