First of all, if you haven't heard of the new DLC that is coming for Gears of War 2 July 28th you need to pull your head out of the sand and stop living in a cave. Having said that, how many people are going to buy it? If you are one of the few that haven't heard of the new DLC just head over to G4's website and take a look.

 

Well to keep a long story short, the new DLC isn't all that "new." It's supposed to contain 7 new maps along with a deleted/added scene to the campaign. The problem is that they are offering.....you know what.....fuck this. I'm sure you don't want ot hear a rant and I'm also positive you can figure the shit out for yourselves so my question is, How many ignorant bastards that are so stuck on the game are going to purchase the "new" DLC just because they can't stand the thought of not playing content that's available? You know, people like me! :)

Gears 2 pisses me off so much sometimes I swear I need to buy stock in controllers and other breakables! (j/k) Yet, i still purchase every piece of DLC like a trained monkey. Go figure right? oh well.

 

Just FYI, I'm now ranked 167 or 162 in Annex. Going to try and break into the double digits by the weekend!

It will be a good deal for me since I haven't purchased any of the map packs yet (except the Flashback maps that came with the game).

The new DLC comes in two forms. One form for 20 bucks is all the previous DLCs plus the new DLC and co-op mission. The other way is for 15 bucks you can get the 7 dlc maps and co-op mission. But out of the 7 maps, i think 4 of them are returning Gears 1 maps and 3 are new Gears 2 originalmaps. As for the co-op mission i've read a preview of it and it sounds stupid. There's nothing new in it, it's the same stuff you've already played just mixed together with a new choice gimmic of doing it stealth or gunz'a'blazin style. Anyway bottom line is i won't be buying it. I'm done with Gears2. I had debated on buying the DLC and renting the game again to play the new content but have since come to my senses and decided not to.

I really just want the new MP maps. I hardly ever play public I basically just want them for private bot matches. Sad huh? :)
