Do you like shooting people in the face across rich environments in the best-selling XBox 360 game of all time? Today is not a lucky day – it’s the luckiest day.

Call of Duty is a phenomenon that can’t be matched on any console – with sales in the millions of copies, and revenue that matches most major motion pictures. Seriously, any movie Tom Cruise has been in for the last decade or so has been outgrossed by Call of Duty – 5.6 million copies sold in the US alone, 1.4 million copies in the UK. If there were an army consisting of nothing but Call of Duty players, it’d be able to take over any country, easily. In between the wheezing, grabbing for inhalers, and awful social skills.

But the first map pack for Black Ops was released yesterday, giving players something to be happy about. Included were the maps Kowloon, Stadium, Discovery, and Berlin Wall. I will now review the maps based off of what was overheard last night when I was playing them.

Kowloon – “Oh, man, you can zipline.” *moments later, after being stuck with an explosive arrow* “RIGHT TO YOUR DEATH.”

“Jumping from roof to roof? Are we chimneysweeps?”

“I’M ANGRY SANTA.”

Stadium – (after a 203-50 blowout in domination) “Good thing their chopper is on the way.”

“Is this like Munich?” “Yes. With more Jews.”

“Shooting hockey players would almost be better than this.”

Discovery – “This is by far the best map.”

Berlin Wall – “The video made this look waaaaay more interesting.”

The map pack is available for around 15 dollars, and makes Black Ops even more playable. Enjoy!
