PS3, PC to get Modern Warfare 2 DLC early May

Record breaking Stimulus Package won't be an Xbox 360 exclusive for too long
Infinity Ward community manager Robert Bowling has revealed that the first batch of Modern Warfare 2 downloadable content will be making its way to PS3 and PC early next month.

"The Modern Warfare 2 Stimulus Package DLC will hit PS3 in North America on May 4th, everywhere else May 5th," Bowling said via Twitter. "PC gets it worldwide on May 4th.

The DLC - which features five maps, including two from the original Modern Warfare - launched on Xbox 360 late last month and went on to shatter the online service's download records.

Over one million gamers snapped the map pack up on the day of its release, and more than 2.5 million did so during its first week of availability, netting publisher Activision a tidy sum.

There are no details on the DLC's PS3 and PC pricing yet, but expect it to fall in line with the £10.20ish it costs on 360.

Oh no, you have to wait a few more days to pay for some overpriced DLC for a glitched noob infested 12 year old game...I feel for you, how ever will you manage?

Nice bit of flame bait on the 4th paragraph CVG keep stoking them fires. We already know theres 2.5 million tw@s out there. If they had all just waited a few weeks Activison the robbing barstools would of droped the price like a stone. Now the selfish me,me,me i want it now brigade have screwed it for everyone else. Pat yourselves on the back you little darlings.

Don't get yer hopes up, the new maps aren't worth writing home about, and the old ones are pretty much the same as they were in COD4, with a few (very) minor tweaks. Not at all worth ten quid. Neutral

I remember getting PC mags with coverdisks with loads of maps for Quake. There used to be a few regular guys who made some excellent maps. Quake 3 Arena had some great versions of The Edge from Quake 2 remade Smile

I still have a couple of maps I created on my harddrive somewhere too.

Sooooo it that definite that there will be a price for the PC DLC then?

Won't surprise me but it does sadden me. It will be interesting to see how many PC players do pony up the cash though as we tend not to be a breed that condones that sorta thing.

Ahh what do I care, i'm only playing BC2 now anyway.

COD MW2 has to be one of the most over rated games ever - it's not a bad game, but its not brilliant either - and yes, the online game is full of the same old sh1t.

Troll... Rolling Eyes
Why bother trying to take the p**s out of someone just becuase they like MW2. If they like it, its up to them - statments like that are written by utter tossers.

Stick it up your flaccid hairless bottoms Smile Worst "best" game of all time.

Can't wait for this map pack!!!!

^ lol, Ł10 for extra garbage, mmmmmmmmm indeed. Who knows if it'll be Ł10 either, I think it'll be Ł11.99. Let's see who'll like it then.
The Bossman on 9 Apr '10
Rolling Eyes Its costing me Ł2.50 you muppet, going split between 4 of us. And besides Overgrown is worth Ł10 on its own.


To many MW2 Hating trolls in this place. If you don't like it then thats up 2 u. But there are millions and millions of players around the world then enjoy it.
