On Thursday, May 3, at 9 a.m. sharp, you’ll be able to download the Hidden Fronts multiplayer map pack via Live Marketplace for a fresh GoW online experience. It costs 800 points.


Bullet Marsh
In this Kryll-infested swamp, an old generator still powers the area lights. A few stray bullets could easily knock out the generator, leaving combatants to fend for themselves against the Kryll.

Garden
This overgrown and crumbling conservatory still has a working fertilization and pesticide system. This system can pose a serious hazard to anyone who ventures into the greenhouse without first venting the air.

Process
Teams must fight for control of this subterranean Imulsion processing plant, still active despite the cessation of the Pendulum wars.

Subway
Timgad 's Central Subway station used to serve as a central hub for commuters. Now the tunnels are crawling with Locust.

I was thinking of getting the Rainbow 6 afddon, not any more, my money's on this package

This just in. 360monster.com isn't actually a news site anymore... it's just a forum.

Maybe if the news poster also made a thread here you wouldnt think that.

I only check the main page once a day. I have a 360 Monster button on my Firefox browser that when pressed only shows new posts since last visit. I am sure many other regular users have the same.

True, but the point still remains valid. There is no integration between the front page and the forums.

Someone had a similar problem. I agree with the above mentioned.

But hopefully it won't matter with the new sites and forum update.

i dont check the front page, no offence but its not the first place to get stories live. And i check the forum, not the main site.

I find this is a great place for people to post news from lots of places.

I can't remember why I wrote that but it's staying there. My n00b cake is delish.

I won't be downloading the GOW maps though. Especially with no XBL :p

played on the new maps last night and i like them all. All of them are quite large compared to some of the old ones.

Garden - really open map woth gas chambers, which have to be turned off. Really run map if not a bit unbalanced for getting to the weapons (one spawn gets to the boomshot before the other)

Subway - I love this map coz its on two levels, great sniper vs torque bow battles to be had.

Bullet Marsh - Huge map which is very dark and has kryll in the darkest bits. Great fun, big battles happen in the middle room where the boomshot is, and its great for sniping. Turning the generator off is funny if not dangerous ( i killed a few teammates with it)

Process - only played it once last night but thought it was a good map with loads of routes to get behind the other team

Subway is a class map. Great layout and graphics look superb on it.

Played a bit of process aswell, I like it, quite open and again lovely graphics especially when the imulsion glows on your character.

Not sure if I like bullet marsh or not yet, only played it once. Not played Garden yet.

Graphics on all the maps are superb, obviously. But i have also not had any glitches or slow down on the large, pretty maps, which is good.
