Alas, it is here. I've been waiting for a reason to get my teeth stuck into Vegas again.

Yay!

And I agree, a good price (£6.40 if you buy your points from play.com). Watch and learn other DLC vendors.

so 3 maps and 2 modes. If you assume the maps are £2 each, and the 2 game modes 40p each thats not bad really.

Thats like 2/3 pints down the local pub. so as long as you get a couple of hours play out of them its a winner IMHO. And im sure ill get way more than that !

Well ok, lets not split hairs too finely. This is not the bargain of the century, neither is it a rip off.

Seem most of us all agree it sits somewhere in the middle. And thats probably about as clear as things are going to get.

Ubisoft sure love releasing remixed maps at a price, don't they? Surely it would make more sense to give the "redux" levels away as free content (since they must have cost next to nothing to tweak) as a way of coaxing people to buy the other 3 *new* maps at a lower cost of 400 MP?

I used to buy these levels on the Xbox but then they only cost £2.99 and many were free. With the 360, I've not bought any as I think the two-fold increase in price is a little excessive for what you get in the way of new content, usually less than what you got on the old Xbox.

Manic: I imagine people work out how many hours of fun they'll get out of it, and divide the cost by that. If the resulting figure is over the magical threshold for that person (based I guess on how much moola they have) then it's good value :)

if C/F > MT then BUY! else BYE!

C = Cost, F = Fun and MT = Magical Threshold

If people keep buying the content publishers will keep charging for it. Sorry for restating the obvious. I'm really looking forward to Halo3, but I'm really dreading the downloadable onslaught that will accompany it.

"I don't think this is bad value at all.. what I don't understand is why some of YOU think this is good value?"

Ehh? so you don't think it's good value but you don't think it's bad value. yeah great.

BorderTown Redux is there it just can't be played on co-op games for some reason. Choose any other game type and it's there as a map.

Any word on whicyh of these maps can be played in a co-op game (besides the one previously mentioned).

Terrorist hunt would be fine if there was bloody respawn (realism be damned), but there isn't so co-op is really when the proper non-dm fun is.

Can they be done on Terrorist Hunt? It's the only mode I play.
