This thread has been linked to the game 'Rainbow Six: Black Arrow'.
Taken from IGN.com
"Ubisoft announced today that Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six 3: Black Arrow is about to get an infusion of fresh multiplayer maps, available (of course) via Xbox Live.
The first, "Village," is a small map designed for teams of five or less. It's also available free of charge, right now.
Four more maps will soon be released in the form of Assault Pack #1, for which Ubisoft is asking a mere $5.00 to download. The company expects to have these available within the next few weeks. Get ready."
So that's about £2.99 in real money.
Think I'll wait for reviews as I'm not exactly desperate for new maps. Still, it's a decent little package if you play Black Arrow a lot.

I'm tempted to go for the Bronze pack, is $49 roughly £25? or a little more?
Ahh right, so I take it they post the accessories on then? Not that I want them or anything but just wondered how they are going to do it. Don't think I will bother then, wanted to actually buy the item as a whole with the set.
Well said Cookie..that is correctemundo!
"Tomorrow at 11 am PST, the Half-Life 2 Steam offers will be ready for purchase. Those who purchase via Steam, will receive the final version of Counter-Strike: Source immediately. Half-Life 2 and other games in the Steam offerings will be made available to purchasers upon their release."
I s**till don't get it.
So I can buy GOLD tonight on s**team, I will have ins**tant access to the original Half Life with all the modifications, Day of Defeat with similar conditions, I s**till don't get to play Half Life 2 or the new Counter-Strike but will get them when they are available?!
I currently have Half Life 2 for the 9800 XT voucher for download when it is released, I also have the back catalogue of all the Half Life/Valve games that I have downloaded to play offline, everything from Ricochet through to the new CS: Source.
The ques**tions are, I have read that the FULL version of the new Counter-Strike will be released this week on s**team, is this what is happening tonight? Also how the hell can you download a hat through s**team ;) A paper Half Life 2 hat, I really would get the sh*t kicked out of me from all concerned.

Fripper-what?
Silver looks good enough to me - Gold is just money for extra fripperies!
My vote goes to the stickers and postcards.
