Call of Duty 4 map pack delayed a week, now hitting XBL April 10
The Call of Duty 4 Variety Map Pack will not hit this week like planned. Instead, that April 3 or 4 date has been pushed back to April 10, according to the official Game of the Year Edition website. We're betting this is the real deal, despite today's notoriety. If it's Activision's or Infinity Ward's idea of an April Fools' prank, then we're a bit disappointed by the lack of effort.

"It ain't so"
There I said it. Now that doesn't fix anything.
Edog Lost @ Apr 1st 2008 8:18PM
Well. I'm crying just a little bit less now.
Howl Pendragon @ Apr 1st 2008 8:17PM
I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED.
Infinity Ward was browsing Joystiq and there like "oh hey theres Howl, he always has unbiased comments... he said people play cod4 over halo 3!! lets trick him and not release the map pack causing people to get bored with the same maps and make them play halo 3!!"

No one actually pays attention to you, much less someone that is actually important.
You attention whoring only works when you get your mom to give in and buy you ice cream.
Howl Pendragon @ Apr 1st 2008 8:50PM
Wow ever heard of sarcasm?
Delgado @ Apr 1st 2008 9:16PM
Wow ever heard of a joke? :P
Obie @ Apr 1st 2008 8:24PM
Oh well, a week won't kill me.
It'll be worth the wait.
Howl Pendragon @ Apr 1st 2008 8:30PM
Actually no because since SONY is such a good company Infinity Ward said they will make a glitched and bugged version for 360 to screw around with Microsux!
Obie @ Apr 1st 2008 8:57PM
LOL wut?
xFenixKnightx @ Apr 1st 2008 9:48PM
Keep forgetting to tell ya Obie, love that avatar you got there. +1
Edog Lost @ Apr 1st 2008 8:29PM
Could it be that the maps are available to those with a token on that date?
HB96st @ Apr 1st 2008 8:37PM
It's just IW waiting to get the content correct for the PS3 release.. Y'know, like T2 did with GTA4.
Hackman, I wanted to give you a +, but I was too late. So heres three digital ones: +++ you had me rollin'!
OMGOMG @ Apr 1st 2008 8:52PM
Why is Michael Vick on the cover?
Howl Pendragon @ Apr 1st 2008 9:02PM
Nope, this guy hunts people not dogs.
Sky Shark X2 @ Apr 1st 2008 9:15PM
Well there goes my plan of having a fun relaxing friday night after presenting my senior project's product portion(took a whole lot of hours to do)with my friends on the new maps.
Jake11 @ Apr 1st 2008 9:32PM
thanks for those fascinating details of your life
humperdinck @ Apr 1st 2008 9:26PM
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
xFenixKnightx @ Apr 1st 2008 9:56PM
I feel your pain. I saw this earlier today and was like WTF, this better be April Fools but alas...doesn't look like it. =(
I had even sent out a mass message to my friends list on LIVE saying April 3rd and all that crap.
Tis teh suxors indeed.
nxtiak @ Apr 2nd 2008 4:57AM
callofduty.com still says April 3rd.
matt @ Apr 3rd 2008 2:23AM
umm this info is inaccurate
this is for ps3 so the game can be made the have the maps included
the maps are still set to be released tomorrow which is april 3rd
Alex @ Apr 3rd 2008 8:06AM
howl pendragon its actually 14 days exclusive now not 11
days and if they do well im not sure if i want to waste my money on people who have ruined xbox live
N8 @ Apr 4th 2008 4:30PM
I speculate that this has something to do with playstation whining that they are just behind with everything. WAHHHHHH are online community sucks! WAHHHHH 360 graphics are always better! WAHHHHHH are console flat out blows! WAHHHHHH exclusive content for GTAIV goes to 360! WAHHHHH cod4 maps go to XBL way before PSN!

This was posted by the community manager at Infinity Ward. It states the maps have not been delayed and are scheduled for an early friday morning release. I am hopeful.
