'Escalation' add-on for Black Ops confirmed, coming May 3 photo

As it turns out, you probably know the details of the upcoming add-on for Call of Duty: Black Ops, "Escalation." But now the information is official, so you can forget about those sleepless nights spent wondering if the retailer leak was legitimate.

Major Nelson breaks the news, saying that "Escalation" will be yet another timed exclusive for Xbox 360 gamers. It'll first release on May 3, with PlayStation Network and PC releases to follow at undisclosed later dates, presumably.

To recap, there are four multiplayer maps in this pack -- Hotel, Convoy, Zoo, Stockpile -- and one new map for the popular Zombies mode. Are you in?

Oh boy I'm excite- wait, no I'm not. I'm not gonna pay a quarter of the game's price for around 10 minutes of map each, especially since the MP section can take up to 80 hours to play.

If you replaced Sarah Michelle Gellar with Bruce Campbell that would be the greatest thing ever.

I'm not gonna act like those retards who constantly bitch about COD because they're jealous of its success or they're too poor to buy the map packs

At any rate, sounds like fun - won't get it straight away cause I'm saving up for other stuff though

The text on this poster has a reading age of 4, good to see COD not making it to hard for the fan base.
