The Gears of War maps are now free.

Next question for me is: when is the next set coming out? That is the patter MS used for the Halo 2 maps, as I recall (paid, free, new paid, free, etc).

Prediction: The Resistance: Fall of Man maps will follow a similar pattern - paid-for initially, eventually becoming free, then new paid-for maps coming out later. I like this particular method, so thumbs up from me.
