($5). We suppose you could be sneaky and buy it early, but if you really wanted the maps you've probably pre-ordered already, right?[Thanks, Joey]

Is anyone else hoping for a small gust of wind to move that loin-cloth flap?
Really, I'm the only one?

Until you find out it's hiding a midget with a knife.

I heard you moved out after the queef-scandal of 2007, CL4P-TP. So in which skirt are you hiding now?

Nah, at Captivate they mentioned those maps would be up for download day one, and people got all pissy. but yeah, they're just the Gamestop maps, so you're just getting them for free.

If you have to pay 5 dollars, it is not exactly a bonus package. And I don't even know what to expect for multiplayer anyway.

Who is the idiot who keeps doing this? I guess it has it's advantages and stuff, but MS really need someone else doing this.

Seriously, if I was MS, I would fire this guy's ass big time.

The promo isn't really "exclusive maps", it's exclusive as a promo bonus item, just like Rock Band Green Day is going to have that "exclusive" export code promo item at Gamestop and everyone else will need to pay 800 points or whatever.

I hate when dlc is released right when a game comes out, just shows they had it made already and it should have been on the disks... @#$% capcom..... *buys dlc anyway*

when I clicked on it in the marketplace it said this product is currently unavailable... and I only clicked because I thought I severely spaced out and missed the release of this game. Not that I'm gonna buy it, I just worried about continued memory loss.

Yes, I have already pre-ordered... but not at Lamestop! Glad to see that these will be available. I think Lamestop exclusives are horrible, and the customers for these games should be able to choose where they want to purchase the game!

Now this frustrates me. Why would you have DLC readily available, or even be working on DLC BEFORE the game is released. Just shows you that they could have included better features and/or more maps, but they intentionally leave them out, to make money later.
I know it makes sense financially, but at least before, you could pretend that they were doing the fans a service by extending a game's content and enjoyability. Now it just looks like they fit 80% of what they wanted in the game, you pay $60 for it, and get the other 20% of the game when you pay for the DLC (bit by bit).
