The first batch of Downloadable Content for Rockstar’s Western, Red Dead Redemption has been released on the PS3 and the Xbox 360. The DLC, named Outlaws to the End Co-Op Mission Pack, as the name suggests adds more levels for co-operative play and competitive multi player. The pack brings in six new missions;

“Walton’s Gold”
Walton’s Gang have taken control of a mining camp rich with gold.  Fight through the camp and load your mine cart with as much gold as you can carry and get out as fast as you can – Walton’s boys have rigged the place to blow!

“The River”
Ride a raft down river, taking out rebel encampments along the way until you reach the rebel stronghold of Nosalida and a final epic battle for the town’s massive weapons caches. Watch out for Gatling gun-equipped enemy rafts.

“Ammunition”
The Mexican Army has the town of Tesoro Azul under siege.  Storm the gates under heavy cannon, Gatling gun and sniper fire to destroy the Mexican artillery placements.

“The Kidnapped Girl”
Another gang has taken over Fort Mercer, and they’re holding a farmer’s daughter hostage. You and your crew will need to charge the fort and eliminate the gang with all firepower necessary – then fend off enemy reinforcements as you transport the girl by stagecoach safely to her home at Ridgewood Farm.

“The Escape”
You and your teammates must attack and steal a gold coach along with a wagon and a Gatling gun.  Once acquired, you will be sent to turn them in to the American Army and then must clear out remaining resistance in the town of Tumbleweed.  After clearing the town, prepare for an explosive standoff that will take you all the way to Mexico.

“The Herd”
Cattle rustlers have taken control of Box Canyon.  Fight your way in and wipe out the rustlers, then use teamwork to protect the herd as you lead them home to Armadillo while drawing heavy fire from snipers and reinforcements on horseback.

The downloadable content is completely free to download and more DLC content is promised for the future. The Outlaws to the End DLC also brings in 10 new trophies for the game:

I heard this one of the best DLC’s for this game, why would they make it exclusive. Is anyone still playing the game?

Well it seems that LittleBigPlanet will not be moving forward with a sequel. Martin Lynagh stated “what you’ve seen so far from LittleBigPlanet that’s the way it’s going to continue” he is referring to DLC and updates for the existing game.

Danny Lever a level designer said “a sequel would fragment the LBP community” He stated he “would never want to do that as it would be the most counterproductive thing you could do”

Sounds like they are on our side from a gamers perspective.  If only Valve had taken the same stance for the L4D community.
