Rumor: First Modern Warfare 2 Map Pack is Just Ports?
VGcharts reported yesterday that a video previewing the first map pack for Modern Warfare 2, ironically dubbed “Stimulus Package” and due this spring, had leaked [video now removed "due to a copyright claim by Activision Games Inc."]. In it was, reportedly, mostly screenshots, but with some gameplay thrown in. The surprising part is that it consisted almost entirely, if not literally so, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare remakes. Even more surprising, however, was that these weren’t remakes, but literal ports, having no discernible differences between the original map.
Now, this could be fake, but with Activision pulling the copywrite card, it seems more like an admonition of accuracy than anything else. With a name like “Stimulus Package” and it being ports, one would hope it would be a free update. If not, expect Activision to take even more heat than it’s getting from this whole Infinity Ward debacle.
Stimulus = Pay twice as much. Haha. I dunno though, if it is ports, it should be free. Just stupid to pay for what you already have on another game.
I am impressed with this web site, really I am a fan.
