Starting today and all weekend it’s a very special time for Call of Duty 4 gamers, not only did I turn on my Sony PS3 today and get a COD4 game update to version 1.30 (its 12MB) but I also find out that the Call of Duty 4 map pack due early May has been moved forward to today and it’s downloading right now. In the UK this costs £6.99 and you get four maps, which include Killhouse, ChinaTown, Broadcast and Creek.
The fun does not stop there as this weekend we are getting a Double XP Weekend, the last time we had one of these on the Playstation 3 I moved up a whole prestige level. So obviously it will not be just me playing COD4 all weekend to get some nice double point action, lets hope the servers can take all the gaming and not crash as they have before.
The double XP weekend starts 12:01 AM GMT on Friday 25th and you can keep getting double points right up to 11:59 PM PDT on Sunday, April 27. If you’re a COD4 gamer on the PS3 then do not waste anytime, get onto the Playstation Store and go to “Game Add-ons” and you will see the COD4 map pack to download on the right, thank you Activision for the 358MB game pack. My user is Dansway if you ever fancy a game PS3 owners.
Update:
Just downloaded the bonus variety map pack and have noticed in Team Death Match (the new maps only) that you get 20 XP points per kill no matter where you shoot them, so it looks like extra points are coming early. Tried the older Team Death Match maps and they are still the same old XP points.

hey MAXIMUS …. PSN is really fast I have downloaded over 10 items from there and it takes no time at all. Maybe you should think about upgrading you internet connection; you know moving from dial up to DSL or Cable.
i do have cable.. took me 8hrs to finish downloading.. 350mb??? 8hrs
@maximus
it took me 10-15 minutes and my internets not all that great.
I had the same problem… it starts to download and it reaches to 30% and then it crushes on me leaving me with no internet connection. It pops up every time that I want to play the game and it crushes every sinlge time… if I do not install it then it wont let me connect to internet. It’s been a week since I can’t play online!!! It’s kiling me! Any advice??? This version 1.30 feels like a bug or virus…
