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

Why do we get it late? :S

Why do we get it late? :S

because microsoft pay ****loads of cash out to activision to do things like that. Also notice on all the adverts for it it says "on xbox 360" without even mentioning that its on ps3 and pc too, which is also microsoft's doing.

No I mean, why do we get it May 5th not 4th?

probably because they wanna catch out the people who use secondary american accounts, because the map packs are region locked even if the game itself isn't, like the dlc for cod4.

I'll probably end up not bothering. Crash and Overgrown are my favourite maps of all time but the other three new ones are the worst ones I've ever played on.

I've got it for x360. They are alright. I would still prefer the maps that the game came with over the new bonus package

I think they should recreate the COD4 map pack so it works on MW2, so if you've got it already you get it for free but that's not going to happen.

thats ********, if you hadn't noticed its already out on xbox and so shouldn't need regional conversion. And ontop of that why would they need an extra day when they've had over a month to do it since the xbox release?

Microsoft pay loads of money to get it for Xbox first.

If you use a PS3 here are the map names:

Salvage (NEW) - It's like Shipment, but snowy, and A bit bigger
Bailout (NEW) - It's like Bloc, but a little smaller and it's more of a modern housing
Storm (NEW) - It's a big warehouse and a litter outside area
Crash (CoD4) - Exactly the same - GREAT :]
Overgrown (CoD4) - Exactly the same

The three new ones are basically crap versions of the ones you mentioned with them. It could be noted that the two old ones are slightly different aesthetically. For example, some buildings on Crash have loads of furniture in which wasn't there before on COD4.
