As discussed previously, Gears of War 2 is getting a sweet update. Here are some further details below.

Halo 3 is also getting an update: the Mythic Map pack. The details on how to get it are below. I’m sure this will provide a boost to the number of players they have had…

Spring is nearly here, and with it comes new life for some of this
generation’s biggest, most action-packed games, exclusively on Xbox
LIVE. With more than 35 million in combined sales, the “Halo” and
“Gears of War” franchises have set the bar for multiplayer games on the
console. Now players of “Halo 3” and “Gears of War 2” will see the
multiplayer experiences made even better by great new Game Add-ons.

On 31st March, the Snowblind map pack gives “Gears of War 2” players a
chance to cool off with four new, winter-themed environments:
Grindyard, Under Hill, Courtyard, and a frozen version of the “Gears of
War” favourite, Fuel depot. Hot on the heels of Snowblind comes the
highly-anticipated “Halo 3” Mythic Map Pack, releasing 9th April with
three new maps: Assembly, Orbital and Sandbox. Both Game Add-ons will
be available only on Xbox LIVE for 800 Microsoft Points.

In addition to the exclusives mentioned above, Xbox 360 is the only
console where you can extend your play with Game Add-ons from many of
the year’s top titles. From “Fallout 3” episode The Pitt (24th March)
to the “Left 4 Dead” Survival Pack (21st April), publishers from across
the industry recognize that Xbox LIVE is the premier online gaming
destination, and a one-stop shop for Game Add-ons.
