Just A Little Thing

The launch details for the second Call of Duty Black Ops map pack may have been leaked, thanks to a retailer error. Call of Duty Black Ops Escalation is scheduled to arrive on May 3, according to VG247.

Australian retailer GAME accidentally leaked information about the second map pack on its web site and then pulled it. As proven by sales of previous Call of Duty map packs, the launch of this kind of downloadable content is as huge as a new blockbuster game on the consoles.

The new map pack will have five maps entitled Zoo, Hotel, Convoy, Stockpile, and the zombie map Survive. The price wasnt listed, but previous map pack First Strike was sold on Xbox Live for 1200 Microsoft Points, or $15. We are checking with Activision Blizzard for comment.

Call of Duty Black Ops is one of the best-selling video games of all time, with sales of more than $1 billion since the launch in November. Activision Blizzard previously launched its First Strike map pack in February.

As we noted before, if video games are the new Hollywood, map packs and downloadable content are smart ways to satisfy the insatiable thirst that some gamers have for sequels. Instead of coming years later, though, these downloadable expansions to existing games keep players addicted to a recently released title.

Activision Blizzard said some time ago that it had sold more than 20 million Call of Duty map packs, generating more than $300 million in sales. So its clear that map packs are a big business, and video game publishers may want to avoid publishing rival games on May 3, since gamers will be a little busy.

hopefully the power node mystery easter egg in ascension will carry on in this! i reckon this map will be like firing range cos of all the clues there

i think it will be called survive becuse it says SURVIVE in big letter like the names of the maps

That's where I disagree. Often times, and this may not be the case with BO, but many DLC's are things that were intended for the actual game but were taken out due to time constraints. Without DLC, I feel like older games were more complete than these new, DLC ridden games, and I know I'm not alone in this feeling.

Sure, for black ops its fun to have new maps, but on some games, such as BioShock or Assassin's creed, the DLC are missions that should have come with the game but were removed because they wanted to release the game on time instead of a week or two later, and wanted the extra $15 for it as well

who cares about that map pack mw3 will be out then !
