I dont think its that dumb of a question if your new to this stuff, as KoMPLeKz says that he/she is. But yeh, the marketplace holds all the downloadables for the various online games. Stuff like new maps n game modes, in gears case. (Y)

I've never heard anyone ask it over a Text forum either.

If you wait until September, you can download those maps that cost 800ms points for free.

Ok, chill guys. Not everyone can know everything and it's good that he is trying to research things and get help from us - the community. He's a new member so please welcome him instead of posting/saying needless rubbish. This topic can stay open as Komp might have some more questions.
