    According to Bungie, the Killtacular map pack will be free just two months after its release.

    (I have a vacation in May, so I think I'm waiting!)

    As for the update, it's already been pushed to everyone (yesterday). It's changed the game dramatically, encouraging a lot of grenade play.

    Other items of note:
