    Default Variant Hunters: 360 GoW 3 Pack = WTF?!

    Figured I'd help out before it hits retail on Tuesday so there's no insanity down the road with used copies.

    The upcoming "Gears of War: Triple Pack" is a jumbled mess of pieces. If you are collecting variants, I had to gut one for a display copy and saw first hand what's inside. Use this for reference otherwise there will be headaches aplenty.

    The entire package consists of:
    1. Platinum Hits Style Clear Gray Case
    2. Insert Sleeve, with NO mention of Platinum Hits
    3. A single sheet instruction manual. It tells you to DLC the real one. 9_9
    4. The "Rave Card" for the GoW2 Maps and Bonus Mission
    5. The PLATINUM HITS version of Gears of War 1
    6. The REGULAR version of Gears of War 2.

    It's essentially the innards of a GH GOW and the GOW2 GoTY edition plunked into a new case with shitty manual.

    Collector be aware. >_>;;;

    "GH GOW and the GOW2 GoTY edition" is what I currently have. This collection wouldn't do much for me then.

    So does this include the bonus disc that was in the Gears 1 platinum edition as well? Or is it just the game disc?

    God, who thought a DLC manual was a good idea?

    Man when I saw that title I thought "They brought God of War to the 360?!?!". That was a real WTF moment...
