I've found out about the new version of GOW2 being released at the end of this month, but I cannot find any information about what extra content is on it. My guess is that it's new maps and that extra online game mode. I don't own Gears of War 2 yet but really want to so I was planning to get this instead of paying for the DLC.

Yep, and that is of course if you are interested in paying more for multi-player dlc as for me I could careless as 99% of the time I play the single-player parts of games. I think I read somewhere that the GotY version will sell for more like $49.99, so if you like multi-player and want to pay more then the version out now then by all means go right ahead.

I just bought non-GotY version of GoW2 at Best Buy for $9.99(normal sale price is $29.99 until 09/26/09 and regular price is $39.99) as I priced matched it with the Kmart ad when I bought Halo 3: ODST.

yeah if you dont own gears already and want all the dlc the goty edition is the way to go it adds a ton of maps. Also you get the deleted SP chapter but thats not really important buy all the dlc separately would probably cost you more than 60.

I didn't know this version was out. It seems like a good deal, but too bad i bought the regular version for $29.99 from Best Buy a few months back. I didn't know Best Buy does price matching. Is that nationwide or just in your area?

This may be a stupid question, but how can there be more than one Game of the Year?
