MW2 “Stimulus Package” DLC confirmed for March 30
Acti just confirmed a March 30 launch for Modern Warfare 2′s first DLC pack, a date teased last night.
The Stimulus Pack will, as promised, release on Live first.
Additionally, Silver Live members will be able to try out MW2 online play in a “Multiplayer Unlock event” running from March 12-15.
There are no details on the included maps themselves so far, although it seems likely supposedly leaked shots recently were real.
This is the first of two DLC packs for MW2 from Infinity Ward this year.
There’s a press release here.

Not the new maps, just the multiplayer.

Also, Activision are evil and want to eat your soul.
I do think it’s a little lame to be charging for the old maps though. We’ve been there and done that. I’ve got both the games in this series, in a perfect world that would count for a little something – Like not having to pay to play the same damn maps I paid for in the former.
Alas, the days of appreciating the gamers who stick by you are long gone when it comes to most of these jolly professionals. Today it’s all micro-transactions, DLC for a buck and fascist DRM. And in the end.. There will be cake.

So wait….
Only two new maps and the rest are old COD4 maps with a few changes? If that’s correct….sigh, just…sigh.
Fucking pathetic, how about ALL new maps? Ah well, why do i even care. I’m about done with MW2 anyway, the game simply ain’t doing it for me. COD4..loved it, MW2, not so much at all.
