Modern Warfare 2's first map pack coming March 30

Infinity Ward Community Manager Robert Bowling has revealed (via his twitter) a new viral marketing campaign for Modern Warfare 2. The website says that a cure for "mapathy" will be arriving on March 30--at least if you are playing on Xbox 360. Basically, that means we will be getting our first MW2 map pack at the end of this month, although no details were given. Stay tuned over the next few weeks and we'll update you when we learn the details on the maps themselves and whether or not we'll be getting some new Spec Ops missions.

Update: 1up Community Manager Tina Sanchez has hinted (also through twitter) that Call of Duty 4 favorite Crash will be part of the first map pack. No confirmation from Infinity Ward just yet, but we'll keep you posted.

Update 3/13: An early Xbox Live Marketplace listing has revealed that the upcoming map pack will be titled "Stimulus Package" and, in a record for the Call of Duty series, will contain FIVE (5) maps. Three of these maps--Bailout, Storm, and Salvage--are brand new, while the other two are remakes/returns of Call of Duty 4's Crash and Overgrown. Judging by what has pretty much become the standard, expect "Stimulus Package" to cost 800 MSP ($10), although that is as of yet unconfirmed.

Update 3/14: Xbox360Achievements.org has reported that the Stimulus Package map pack will actually cost 1200MSP ($15). So much for getting a good value by getting 5 maps! Classic Activision milking its customers.
