June 13, 2007 - Epic Games announced today that it has added eight new Achievements to its best-selling Xbox 360 title Gears of War. Worth a total of 250 points, the Achievements were scuttled into the existing Annex mode and Hidden Fronts map pack.
The Achievement Points are as follows:
"THIS! IS! ANNEX!" - 40 points
Complete 100 multiplayer matches of 3+ rounds in Annex and capture 3 objectives in each match.
"Inconceivable!" - 30 points
Win 20 rounds of multiplayer matches in Annex by fewer than 5 points.
"Nub Pwn3r" - 30 points

"You Down With E.P.I.C?" - 30 points

Additionally, a number of fixes have been introduced, the biggest of which has been a tweak to the Roadie Run movement so that players have better control to reduce getting snagged on the edges of cover. Other changes include a tweak to the amount of damage the Lancer Assault Rifle inflicts in multiplayer, a few split-screen interruption bugs and some minor Annex changes, like the length of time that corpses remain.

The new lancer is real strong, no more running at a person with a shotty and killing them, half a clip of normal lancer bullets will now down a person.
