All Right, Who is Making These Lists Any Way?

I'm at my brother's house right now, but I was catching up on video game news feeling a bit disconnected out here.  And I checked out Game Trailers and look at this...the top five rankings from Gears of War 1.  This is the top five multiplayer map.  Uh, any list that says that it is ranking the top Gears 1 maps and includes not only Escalation (I actually like Escalation but it isn't close to one of my faves) AND Raven Down yet neglects to mention Fuel Depot and/or Bullet Marsh is a joke.  Plain and simple.

Raven Down is possibly my least favorite map in any game ever.  It's nothing but a shottie fest every time I've ever played it.  The list also includes Tyro Station which is boring most of the time because of the dueling torques.  At least they got Gridlock on there.  And I do actually like Subway.

By the way, be sure to watch the 1up Show this week.  It features new campaign footage and our very own Gearhead David Ellis talking about the campaign.
