World at War - Map Pack 3 Goes Live

PS3, Xbox 360, PC

The war rages on with intense fury for one of the most-popular online multiplayer games, as publisher Activision and developer Treyarch announced today that Call of Duty: World at War Map Pack 3 is now available for download on Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and the PLAYSTATION3 computer entertainment system. Call of Duty: World at War Map Pack 3 includes three new multiplayer maps and one Zombie map:

Battery: An armoured island surrounded by anti-ship mines and shore-to-ship cannons, Battery places soldiers on a mid-sized map based on Fort Drum (El Fraile Island) in the Philippines. Players will have plenty of areas to hide and a steady flow of close quarters combat.

Revolution: Revolution pits soldiers against each other in a large factory set in Russia's cold city streets. Keep your trigger finger primed, your gun loaded, and your head low through this sniper-friendly territory.

Breach: Overwhelm the enemy in Breach, set in Berlin's crowded city streets surrounding the historic Brandenburg Gate. Only the finest soldiers will survive in this fast-paced, dense battlefield.

Der Riese (Zombie Factory): The undead horde approaches! Fight for your life in Der Riese (translated: The Giant), an all-new Zombie map set in a secret Nazi research facility featuring the Pack A Punch Machine, a device capable of upgrading weapons at the touch of a button. Use the teleporters to escape the vicious Hell Hounds and pray that the powerful Wunderwaffe DG-2 will appear before it's too late. This map includes 10 new Xbox 360 Achievements/PS3 Trophies.

I've been hesitant to buy the map packs for WaW, mostly due to the fact I refuse to give more money to Treyarch, however I finally crumbled under pressure from XBL mates to get the new one. It's actually quite good, played through the 3 new maps and they're well set out (though the spawn points are rather lame at times), however the new Zombies map is where the pack really shines.

*HEAPS* of fun, the new zombie factory is huge and has so much mroe to do, played it for hours last night with mates. Zombies alone was worth the $15au.
