We’ve known for a while that Bungie was gonna drop some new multiplayer maps for Halo 2. What we all thought, because it’s what Bungie said, was that the maps would be for Xbox 360 only. Today, Frankie dropped the ball that the maps will be available on April 17 for both Xbox and Xbox 360. Nice to see they’re showing love for people who haven’t made the plunge into the “next-gen” of gaming.
The two maps are remakes of the popular Halo maps Hang ’Em High and Derelict. The new maps, now dubbed Tombstone (at top) and Desolation (just above), respectively, will set you back $4. That’s right, no MS Points here boooyeee. Since the old school Xbox can’t compute the craziness that is MS Points, you get to pay with real money this time. Consider this is a priviledge, because who knows when it’ll happen again.
