New maps comming out April 28th for Halo2
I just read up on this (bungie.net) and it says 4 new maps are comming out April 28th.
Aparently the Bonus pack is free, but theres 2 other maps you have to play for (5.95) or you cant download them till june.
What kind of bullshit is this? Am i reading this wrong? We have waited months for bonus material and we have to pay for it?
Re: New maps comming out April 28th for Halo2
no you read it right, in actualality, you will pay for the maps. i read that they were gonna charge 14.95 for the second released maps. or you could buy the whole thing for 20 bucks. option 3 is of course wait until june and get em for free. option 4 is steal it off your friends xbox if you can :P

Thats total bullshit, why am i paying for new maps? I already bought the game and they said there would be content download. Thats just fucking great, another rip-off.
Re: New maps comming out April 28th for Halo2
Just wait like 2 months and all the maps will be free. :)

I dont wana, they should be free in the first place.
its the principal of the thing, you dont charge for map downloads, its not ethical.

regardless, go check red vs blue. They've got a walkthrough of one of the maps up now.

Seems the principal and ethics were tossed out the window and it's all about the $$$. Bet this is a practice that will soon be a standard. :frusty:

hopefully developers believe active mod comunities are healthier for the industry than doing this on the PC.
i bet over 50% of half-life and battlefield sales were to play the mods, and now publishers are getting even more money with the likes of trauma studios under their wing

I wonder what Xbox Live will be like when some people have the extra maps and some people don't.
