Homefront DLC Map Pack Only 240 MS points ($3)

I know Homefront isn't popular around there here parts, but I thought you guys would like to know that there does exist a developer out there who is willing to go opposite of CoD and push the price of DLC down.

A lot of you have been asking about the cost of the 'Fire Sale' Map Pack, scheduled to release June 7th first to Xbox 360. We're happy to confirm it will be yours for a mere suggested price of 240 Microsoft Points (MSP)! In addition, the previously exclusive 870 Express Shotgun will be available for 80 MSP alongside the Free Premium Homefront Theme.

So this works out to 120 MS points per map, compared to CoD's 4 last map packs since MW2, which cost 1200 MS points for only 5 maps or 220 per map. As someone who plays both BlOps and HF frequently, HF's maps are far superior in terms of environment, aesthetics, and balance. If THQ does manage to release more maps and content along the same reasonable prices, then they have made a customer out of me.

inb4 that's $3 too much and it should be free

If I had it, I'd get it.

I'm as willing to spend a small amount of money on an MP game I play semi-frequently, as I am to spend $10 on a pack for a game I play frequently.

$15 is just NEVER getting bought, though.

That's actually appropriate pricing for once.

Good job, Homefront devs.
