We've known of its existence for awhile now, but today Microsoft felt it was time to officially announce the two-disc Gears of War re-issue that's slated to hit retailers on June 24.

The supplied press release affirms all of the details that initially appeared on a GameStop listing and - as expected - confirms that the $39.99 re-issue will not include any of the additional content exclusive to the PC release. For a recap of what's included on the bonus disc, hit the break.

"Gears of War" updated two-disc edition and price drop arrive in June

On June 4th, "Gears of War" will be offered at the new estimated retail price of $39.99 (Xbox 360) and $29.99 (Games for Windows) throughout the U.S. and Canada.

In addition to a new price tag, an updated two-disc retail version of "Gears of War" (Xbox 360) will arrive in the U.S. and Canada beginning June 24. The two-disc version includes previously released multiplayer map packs, the Annex game mode, and the ability to earn up to eight additional multiplayer Achievements worth 250 Gamerscore. Gamers will also get a taste of the highly anticipated sequel, "Gears of War 2," through trailers and other extras.

<p>Wait. Let me get this straight. I am paying 39.95 for the same exact game that I bought a year or so ago, that comes with the downloadable map packs which I probably already have gotten from XBOX Live for free, trailers which I can get on the same service or the internet for free, and themes. MINUS any of the exclusive content that came with the PC version.</p>
<p>What a fucking rip off. :(</p>
<p>Microsoft, you fail!</p>
