This is absolutely terrible news! Apparently due to size and compatibility issues, the new content will be PC exclusive... As soon as this news gets around there are going to be TONS of angry fans such as myself. :( I REALLY want to fight that Brumak and no its looking like that will never happen, I just don't have anywhere close to the money to buy a high-end computer and not to mention buying GOW twice!
New Update is great, but...

Weapon Slide still works! My brother figured out how less than a day after the update! Should I email Epic in hopes of them fixing this before it spreads like crazy? I don't plan on telling very many people (friends mostly) because I almost always play with a full lobby of friends from school anyways.
The old X+A doesn't work, but a slightly different button combination works just as good as the old weapon slide.

Expect new content very soon!
"The next title update for Gears of War is currently going through the certification process. We'll have more detail about the update next week but I can tell you that in addition to fixing a whole bunch of glitches, and providing 720p for VGA users running at 1280x1024, it will contain a brand new multiplayer gametype called Annex.
Some folks who got to play it a few weeks ago said they think it is our best multiplayer gametype yet but I'll leave it for you fans to decide what you think for yourself when it shows up soon on Xbox Live. More details next week."
Missing Weapons?

Update or GOW2 idea *small spoilers*
Thu Jan 04, 2007 at 07:41:09 PM EDT
I was thinking about the new material that will surely be released for GOW and of course I am thinking that the update will include maps for sure, but maybe a little something else?
I was playing through the campaign mode the other day and I saw what could possibly be the greatest add on to GOW... When you first meet RAAM on the streets he uses his massive sword to impale one of the COG squad members. The first time I saw this I thought it was the coolest cutscene ever, but I got to thinking and this was the only weapon we never get to use in the game! How cool would a Sword be in multiplayer? I was thinking that it could be implemented as a melee only weapon with the impaling attack. This could also be added as a say... Assassination only weapon where the leaders are the only ones who can use the sword, sort of an incentive to play this gametype since it is almost always forgotten about and never played.
I'm sure this will not happen for the update, but it would be something that would really add to the already insane mix of weapons! Just an idea! What do you guys think of this?
PS: I haven't played with you guys forever Papi! I've been really busy with basketball... I'll try to get on for your friday night GOW sessions! *Its been my little brother online most of the time.

So word on the street is that Gears will be getting free downloadable content in the near future! I would love to see some new maps of course, but what does everyone think of possibly adding a new gametype? Could this happen? Any guesses or hopes on what the DLC could be?
