Update: Official footage from the map “Chinatown” has been released!

Check out the video below:

If you didn’t know already, Infinity Ward are going to be releasing 4 new playable maps for the PS3, 360 and PC.

The new maps are rumored to be released in spring time, for a small price around £4.99. I’m sure if you’re an avid CoD4 player like me, you really won’t be bothered about the price!

The 4 new maps being released are called Broadcast, Creek, Chinatown and Killhouse. Here’s the details:

Broadcast is taken from one of the missions in the single player side of the game. From the multi-pathed main level leading into the large main room filled with cubicles to small hallways leading upstairs to the second floor, packed with even more hallways and rooms, all the way up to the roof, you can bet there will be firefights waiting around every corner. With a map being so much based inside, you can bet you’ll be killed far less by airstrikes and helicopters than you would in an outdoor based map.

The second map being published by Infinity Ward is call Creek. At the first look of this map I see some resemblance from the map Overgrown. This is a large outdoor map with a few houses located on one side of it. Cutting through the middle of the map is a ravine with the “Creek” running right along it’s bottom. There’s also a large cave at some point leading out of the ravine. With all these levels and undergrowth abounding this map will be a snipers delight.

The other two will be Chinatown, which is pretty self-explanatory, and Killhouse, which is a “bonus” map that we didn’t get any hard details on (though we were told to think of the single-player campaign’s initial training level as a reference). The map pack will be available on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in the coming months for an unspecified price. But interestingly, Infinity Ward hasn’t decided how the maps will be distributed on the PC, where players are much more expectant of postrelease bonus content being released for free. Realistically, Call of Duty 4’s multiplayer is so absurdly good that would have gladly handed over cash for whatever maps the designers could have phoned in–so we’re especially glad to see them putting so much time and care into this first release.

Rumors are something we know we shouldn’t believe in but we remain drawn to it otherwise. Maybe it’s because these gossips contain juicy information that we just can’t stop thinking about. An insider from Sony was able to divulge information that the company has plans of bringing out the 120-160 GB models of the PS3.

He added that these 120-160 GB models will be coming out with the same price as the 80GB model. The release of these models will have the new Dual Shock 3 controllers as well.

Even though Sony has released a “no comment” statement regarding the rumor spreading, the insider said that the company will phase out the 80 GB PS3 along with the Spider-Man 3 pack-in bundle.

Right now, everything is still up in the air. No official word has been released regarding the developments that were mentioned. We’ll keep you updated on the events to come.
