战争机器2（Gears of War 2）销量突破500万，"All Fronts Collection"扩展包7月28日发售

微软官方消息，战争机器2销量已经突破500万，整个战争机器系列总销量超过1100万。为了进一步刺激战争机器2的销售，一个名为"All Fronts Collection"扩展包将于7月28日开始发售，售价$19.99/£14.99/€19.99。


本扩展包包括以下内容：

• Dark Corners地图包
• Snowblind地图包
• Compustible地图包
• Flashback地图包
• 新游戏章节"Road to Ruin"
• Xbox Live主题
• GoW2海报
• 游戏功略

其中的重头戏"Dark Corners"地图包包括以下７张新地图：

• Allfathers Garden: Honor the sacred grounds of the Coalition founders in this explosive map, where powerful weapons catalyze fast and furious action at this COG landmark.
• Memorial: Set near the Eternal Flame, which pays tribute to the fallen soldiers on the battlefield, a hard-fought battle ensues at the Tomb of Unknowns. Putting their flank formation and evasive skills to the test, players will fight to control the Boomshot.
• Sanctuary: Once a peaceful ground for reflection and remembrance, all that remains of the Sanctuary is the chill of death. Feast your eyes on the arsenal of weapons available as you make your way through the tight paths and blind corners of the Locust-damaged temple corridors.
• War Machine: In the abandoned train station that once served as a hub for travel, players will need to master the Longshot, Mulcher and Boomshot weapons to advance the fight while evading fire from the platforms above.
• Highway: Take the fight deep into the Locust Hollow in the complex passages of this underground highway system brimming with enemy vermin. Stick together, separate the enemy and have an exit strategy ready or it’ll be a one-way trip.
• Way Station: Sitting in limbo between death and “processing” are Locust way stations filled with fallen COG soldiers. Tread lightly and practice patience as it’s better to sacrifice firepower for stealth while navigating this minefield of hidden grenades.
• Nowhere: Set in the middle of what was once a destination for weary desert travellers, the land is now barren and devoid of life. Pick off your enemies with the Longshot sniper rifle and make your way to the stairwell with a well-fortified team during this intense firefight.

另外值得一提的是在新的游戏章节里面，玩家既可以选择正常的游戏模式－杀掉所有敌人，也可以选择"潜行"模式－秘密进入兽人的老巢。


如果你还没有尝试过战争机器2的新地图的话，这个仅售２０美元，总价值超过3600MSP的扩展包无疑是超值的。如果你已经购买过其它地图的话，你也可以选择单独购买"Dark Corners"地图包和"Road to Ruin"游戏章节（1600MSP）。
