Will do. Gonna play some Campaign first then hop on Versus.

Whoops. Maps are 98.62 MB, and there's a Theme available too, it looks like. Will download the theme first and then the maps. Impressions later.

Edit: The theme is nice. Have been using the default one, but I think I'll use this GoW one now. I'm hosting a Player match now with the new maps added into the cycle, but nobody's joining. Heh. I'm assuming players who haven't downloaded the maps can't join until they have. Stinks because I wanna try these out. :P

I was too tired to download since I was up late last night and didn't turn on the 360. I can't wait to try these out later tonight.

Why microsoft owns....


The best news is the voice fix issue and the reduced melee grenade tag distance.

So it's harder to melee grenade tag now....RIGHT? ....hopefully

I hope so, that used to get annoying.

Yes, it is.

Here's some quick impressions:

Raven Down: Cool map. Picture it as a "cross" with each branch the same length. There's a downed helicopter in the middle. As far as I've seen, there's no extra weapons other than some frags. When you start out, you and one other teammate are in one branch of the cross, and your other two teammates are in an adjacent branch. Same for your opposition. Not a very large map, so it's very frantic.

Old Bones: So far, not a huge fan of this map. It'll take some getting used to. Haven't played much on this yet, but there's a Boomshot and Longshot available, as well as frags.
