It looks as though developers are trying to fight back against used game sales by offering additional content to people that buy the game new. Developers say that this is a way to reward loyal fans while providing incentive to buy new instead of used.
New copies of Epic's Gears of War 2 (360) will include a one-use download code that will reward players with 5 additional multiplayer maps, all pulled from the original Gears of War. According to GamePro, these maps will not be available for purchase through the Xbox Live Marketplace, with Epic claiming they are "special gifts [for] our loyal fans."
