New Call of Duty 4 maps incoming at 9:30 A.M. today photo

We know that you have waited patiently and finally your reward is here. At 9:30 A.M. EST. the new Call of Duty 4 maps, Chinatown, Killhouse, Broadcast, and Creek will be available exclusively, (even though only a few weeks ahead of the PS3 maps) on Xbox Live for download at 800 MS points (10 bucks). I know that you have been reading that they are delayed, but it just is not true. Today is 100% the day that you will be able to download them.

Some of you have already had a chance to preview the maps at the GOTY events in San Jose, and in New York City. Those of you that didn't should check out the gallery below or the new videos on Gametrailers. I do have some info that I have yet to hear anyone discuss. If you liked the Carentan back in the day on COD2 then you will love its new form as Chinatown on COD4. Another inside tip is that you won't be getting only 4 new maps but a chance at some new XP in game. Sorry, no new achievement points though.

[Thanks to Itemforty, Pedro and Hoygeit for the awesomeness]

Hmmm... 800 points... Although if it gets me playing CoD4 again I suppose it's a good investment. Shame I won't be home in 25 minutes to download them. ^_^

No you're not, admit it. :p

800 points for 3 maps is a bit steep I think...

400 would be better... but its cod4 so I'll prolly get them anyway :-)

Well. Since they mentioned 1.3 million people play the game on LIVE everyday... maybe a couple. You know a few. ;)

Sadly these don't interest me that much. Don't get me wrong, I love me some CoD4 (I'm so close to my 3rd golden gun it hurts) but I recently got swept up in Mass Effect AND RSV2. I'll wait to buy these 'til those wear thin and I need something fresh to get me back into something.

Do look good, though. Can't deny that.

"Another inside tip is that you won't be getting only 4 new maps but a chance at some new XP in game." New XP? what do you mean by that? Is that like what sony did by offering double XP for awhile, or new challanges for these new maps?

@ Mistic

Its 4 maps, not 3. Also, most of them are huge, so if you like that sort of thing, definitely worth it.

I quickly downloaded the maps before work and played one game. It was awesome! New map, Broadcast, was a blast! +20 per kill, not sure why but I'll take it. Almost was late to work but it was worth it. My kids were saying, "come on dad, take us to school" but I wanted to finish the map. Crazy kids, what is up with their priorities!

@Drift64

You think that they will actually release these maps for PC?
COD 4 is over 50% pirated because instead of using steam like every successful PC game, they just used the amazing Punkbuster. Getting online with the pirated copy is easier than putting a little dog in a Christmas tree.

XBL is kind of fucked up right now. Probably because of the Marketplace and COD4 servers getting wrecked.
