Publisher Activision has announced that the Variety Map Pack for Call of Duty 4 and its additional multiplayer arenas will sell for 400 Microsoft Points ($5), half of its usual $10 cost, on the Xbox Live Marketplace this weekend.

The half-price sale runs from 12:01 AM PDT on Friday, September 12 to midnight on Monday, September 14. In celebration of the reduced cost, that time will also be part of a Double XP Weekend for online players.

Released earlier this year on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 at $10, the Variety Map Pack brought four extra maps to the Infinity Ward-developed shooter: Creek, Broadcast, Killhouse, and Chinatown (a remake of the classic CoD map Carentan). A free PC release of the map pack followed in June.

It's been 3-5 months (depending on the platform) and we've heard nothing about new content. This is starting to get on my nerves. This game deserves new content, and not just maps. Perks, gamemodes, weapons, etc. will all be great. With the amount of copies sold, there is no reason not to. Just pump out an expansion pack in three months priced at $20 and boom, you have $100+ million. If they want to try a little harder, price it at $30 and add vehicles or destructible environments.

  The only thing you may get are maps. You won't get new toys or perks. They won't risk tampering with CoD4's universally loved gameplay. You'll have to wait for the sequel to Modern Warfare (and no World at War is not it) to get weapons, vehicles, perks, etc. An $20 expansion is easy money. Everyone would buy it but Infinity Ward stands to make even more money in 2009 by releasing a full game at $60. CoD4 is the new Halo and they know it.

- With CoD5 not so far off, I doubt we'll be seeing much new content for CoD4 really... =\ : Benoit Stordeur
