World at War Map Packs Half Price for a Limited Time

World at War Map Packs Half Price for a Limited Time
Written Monday, October 26, 2009 by Dan Webb

It seems that Treyarch and Activision are keen to offload a serious amount of Call of Duty: World at War map packs before the Modern Warfare 2 migration happens early next month.

For the rest of this week - offer ends November 1st - World at War fans can now pick up Map Packs 1, 2 and 3 for only 400 points each. That's half price for all of those that failed 3rd grade math.

Interested? Head on over to the Xbox Live Marketplace now, or queue them up here.

YES...I was talking to a couple buddies a few days ago debating weather or not to buy them and i said "i swear if i get both of them now for 1600 and then a week from know they are 50% off ill shoot myself"

GOOD THING I WAITED :D

so they're trying to get some more cash out of people before MW2 hits and WaW turns into deserted wasteland :D

Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 03:23:59 PM

they'll all be free soon. like when mw2 comes out & 10 people are playing world at war

Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 03:25:24 PM

Got the first two and promised I would never buy a map pack at release again...Can finally pick up the 3rd map pack

why dont they fix the map pack problem first ?

Comment #13 by wgpfly
Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 03:28:17 PM

well i guess there goes another 1600 pts if i choose to pick up south park also

Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 03:32:05 PM

Theres a reason why this Call of Duty needed more than 1 map pack.

CoD4 will always rule every Call of Duty, even MW2

Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 03:32:09 PM

dam why do they have to do this when ballad of gay tony comes out

Comment #16 by DigitalE
Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 03:32:28 PM

Sweet.. A few days ago, I was debating which map pack to get. Now I can buy both!

Comment #17 by DerPoodle
Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 03:37:31 PM

This might be what pushes me into buying them!!! So, to everyone that has these, WHICH ARE THE BEST?? in your opinion is there one or two that stand out for good level design/which zombie maps are most fun/best achievements...

Comment #18 by The Bum-Mobile
Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 03:41:07 PM

Excellant deal. I don't care what any IW fanboy says but this game had great MP and even better zombies! If you even remotely like WaW, pick up the second pack, my personal favorite for zombies.

Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 03:46:52 PM

Will they make an game of the year edition for cod 5?

Wow, I might just download one and borrow from a friend later.

Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 03:47:36 PM

Did it get game of the year #19?

Comment #22 by mr.CT
Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 03:48:47 PM

# 17 The third one is definatly the best.

Comment #23 by Infomouse
Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 03:48:49 PM

I have a bad feeling that they will announce the WaW GOTY Edition on November 2.

Comment #24 by kelnoker
Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 03:49:02 PM

i just sold this game, like 2 hours ago, before his price drops as MW2 is coming soon. i'll be playing with my friend's Call Of Duty 4 till MW2 come in town ;)

Comment #25 by Infomouse
Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 03:49:46 PM

EDIT: Ok a bundle pack then #21.

@13 I strongly recommend you pick up south park... it is a great game

@14

CoD 1 > All

Not talking about that upcoming arcade port which is getting dumbed down with 8 players and heath regen.

Woke up today and saw they were 400 each..didn't believe my eyes. So happy

#14 have you played Mw2 yet?

Comment #32 by Accel Dance
Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 04:26:01 PM

Nah, they won't be free when MW2 comes out, I don't reckon. The shitty map pack for CoD4 is still 800MSP (lol does ANYONE have that).
This is a good deal, but I already have 2 and 3 and I'm not interested in 1.

Comment #33 by Beanovsky Durst
Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 04:30:51 PM

Sweet. I didn't bought them earlier because I didn't have enough cash for points, now I got the money and I'll spend half-price for them all. Anything that has zombies on it gets my hard-earned bucks :P.

Comment #34 by Doominatorx6
Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 04:39:57 PM

Comment #37 by Olliezilla
Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 04:59:49 PM

Still a rip-off and a waste of money

Comment #38 by ii br00tal ii
Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 05:16:18 PM

I might (emphasis on might) be getting this. Really doubt it though. Only reason would be for the achievements.

Comment #39 by CheesyToast111
Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 05:18:42 PM

Really wish I never bought the first map pack really wasn't worth the money, the second one was good.

Awesome, not to mention Hardcore Headquarters was added. XD

Comment #41 by TheWarriorElite

awww i got them all for 800 =/

Comment #42 by ReD S1X
Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 05:41:14 PM

right now i feel like a couple of bucks richer since people who bought it earlier feels a little ripped now. getting map pack 2 & 3 now, after a quick recharge.

Comment #43 by VegaDark541
Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 05:54:49 PM

Glad I waited to pick these up, both 2 and 3 are downloading now.

Comment #44 by Dr Popodopolus
Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 06:03:51 PM

@17 Both have very good zombies, But #2 has better MP maps. Map Pack 3 has arguably the worst DLC map to ever grace anything in history with Battery but the other 2 are pretty good. Map Pack 3 zombies is great fun with PaP. #3 for zombies, #2 for MP. #2s zombie is very good though.

Comment #45 by Kronos1982
Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 06:05:20 PM

I'm not giving them any more of my money. Not because I don't like Treyarch. Because I have so much invested in other things! I'll hold off until it's less than 400 or free.

Comment #46 by TheBorkinator
Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 06:05:43 PM

without a doubt the best deal ever ran in the marketplace. too bad i already bought all fucking three. this shit of reducing the price after all the people who really want the content get it is getting ridiculous!

Comment #47 by Antwon the Reaper
Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 06:10:14 PM

jezus christ
those who dis the game are to stupid to see the truth
CoD 4=CoD 5!
how?
miltiplayer is same
campaign?
find the enemy, kill them, win
the only real difference is: time period, weapons used perks(online only) and nazi zombies, more maps for cod 5.
and the only good map out off cod4"s pack is broadcast

any one actually prove me wrong id love to hear your statment

oh and "off" is suposed to be "of". spell error :/

Comment #49 by The Elite Elite
Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 06:31:42 PM

Too bad I already have all three. Oh well, at least this wasn't like when I bought the Jedi Temple mission pack and just 1 week later it was the deal of the week. Anyway, hopefully this means less skipping of map pack maps when I'm playing W@W online.

'That's half price for all of those that failed 3rd grade math.'

Hmm...thought it was 75% off:P

Comment #53 by Nevander
Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 07:09:22 PM

Why the hell do they do this. They release them, then later after everyone's bought them, they bring down the price. Faggotry at it's best.

This might as well be a statement saying "when the plat hits version comes out the maps will be included"

cool

Comment #60 by zT O M x
Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 10:12:14 PM

this is a marketing stratergy to make as much out of maps as when MW2 arrives this game will probs be mostly ditched so they will get barely any sales of map packs

Comment #61 by Roose91
Monday, October 26, 2009 @ 11:01:19 PM

This is ridiculous. As i'm stationed with British Forces in Germany where Nazi Zombies is banned along with Gears 2 and a fair few other games I can't download the map packs and wont be back in the UK until the end of November.
So because they invaded Poland and started World War II OVER 60 YEARS AGO! They've banned it and caused me to shell out double what I would have had to than if they'd just grow up and accept that noone cares anymore. I've heard about US Armed Forces personnel with this problem aswell, were in it together guys. Go NATO forces Germany! Braaaap

aww...sweet deal =/ got em already T.T

Comment #63 by TranClan67
Tuesday, October 27, 2009 @ 01:27:47 AM

Damn it. I screwed up. I mean first I bought this game full price a year ago and didn't open it until a week later which in that time dropped in price.

Now I just bought Map Pack 3 yesterday which sucks balls for me. Oh well, at least now I'll have saved money when buying number 2.
But still I feel unlucky

Comment #64 by samjustsam
Tuesday, October 27, 2009 @ 02:33:25 AM

dang. i got all three of these when they first came out. WTF! why does this stuff happen? o well. played the first map pack but not the 2nd or 3rd. i kinda feel like microsoft should give me 15 bucks in ms points to make up for this.

Comment #65 by cashbuster
Tuesday, October 27, 2009 @ 03:17:15 AM

it seems there struggling with WAW as i have all 3 map packs and completed all of them have 1500/1500 out of this game ... think the only time i saw more people on this one to COD 4.

Comment #66 by snoobs
Tuesday, October 27, 2009 @ 04:08:26 AM

not only is this deal good its also double xp week aparently

Comment #67 by Seoulcrusher
Tuesday, October 27, 2009 @ 08:35:08 AM

I suprised I didn't see this earlier on the xbox dashboard. Much better deal than the Fable II Pub Games. The pub games made me start downloading the demos of arcade games instead of just buying them on a whim.

Comment #68 by MediumMelanin
Tuesday, October 27, 2009 @ 09:55:12 AM

HOLY SH..!

And it's for all members, not just gold, definitely getting Map Pack 2 & 3! ('cause 1 is trash, eh? no cheevos)

Comment #69 by Zmoke
Tuesday, October 27, 2009 @ 01:59:13 PM

I don't even have the game but if I would see it on sale somewhere, I'd buy the packs. But I guess I'll just wait for the fresh Call of Duty.

Comment #70 by N00B EATA
Tuesday, October 27, 2009 @ 10:22:45 PM

You are kidding me right....I just got the 3rd map pack around 2 weeks ago and I played it only twice. I bought it because I thought it would keep me busy until MW2. Wow, I just wasted 400 microsoft points..

Comment #71 by blayde
Tuesday, October 27, 2009 @ 11:41:04 PM

I actually think COD:WAW will be played after MW2 is released the same way people still play COD4. Ones set in near future, ones world war 2 so two different games. Actually, I'm looking forward to COD1 that was a beast of a game lol

Comment #72 by newbsicle
Wednesday, October 28, 2009 @ 04:24:27 AM

I doubt they'll ever be free. There was a time when I would have thought so as well. But when you see micro$haft charging 800pts for maps on games nobody even plays anymore - I find it hard to believe.

Comment #73 by newbsicle
Wednesday, October 28, 2009 @ 04:26:27 AM

Is this a gold member exclusive because I have a silver account with about 3000 pts on it.

People still play this game? lol, 1200msp is $20 to a new game guys.

Poll

Downloadable content - achievements or no achievements - will you buy it with or without them?
If the content is good, or for a game I love, I'll buy it regardless of whether chievos are included
I'll still buy and play the downloadable content, but achievements would be nice.
Who the hell cares!?
No achievements, no sale ... and that goes for any game ... whether you're GTA or Halo!
Just stop with the DLC achievements full stop ... you're ruining my completion percentage dammit!
