I was looking on teamxbox's forum and did find this. http://forum.teamxbox.com/showthread.php?t=515355&highlight=no+free+downloads
1UP Yours crew claim to have played the next DLC for Gears of War and say it's effin fantastic however Epic (Cliffy and Rein) is pissed at MS for not wanting to release the DLC as free but instead "forcing" a price for it.
Back in November Pat Wilson, developer at Garage Games, announced that their team had just finished making a FREE downloadable update (that featured bug fixes, 11 new multiplayer maps, and new gametypes) and that it was in Microsoft’s hands for certification. Weeks later in his blog, Pat explained to fans why the free content will NEVER be made available. (The site he blogged at, angrydev.com, is no more, but you can still find the info he posted on numerous sites) On the record, Garage Games says "...we are unable to come to an agreement with our publisher for the Marble Blast Ultra update." Seeing as Garage Games is both the publisher AND developer of Marble Blast Ultra, you need to read between the lines. The gist of Pat’s blog says Microsoft won’t allow them to release free content for their game, but he doesn’t go into what their motivation might be, but allow me to.
Not good if this is true, I hope it is just some bad rumor.
