'Modern Warfare 2' DLC Dated for March 30th On Mystery Site

UPDATE: I just received a press release with "Stimulus Package" used front and center and word that Xbox Live Silver members "who have not yet experienced the exciting adrenaline rush of 'Modern Warfare 2' will be able to try it with a Multiplayer Unlock event" from March 12th through March 15th.

Infinity Ward may not use the term "Stimulus Package" on their new website promoting "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2" DLC, but the map packs will be marketed with a new word they've coined -- "mapathy" -- which is a condition they hope to cure by March 30th when the content launches.

The new affliction refers to "a state of indifference to the same old maps one has been playing for the last several months," according to Mapathy.com. Infinity Ward and all of its cohorts' logos are clearly visible at the bottom, along with a copyright notice, so it seems safe to assume this is where breaking info about new "MW2" maps will show up by the end of the month.

Symptoms include no longer deriving "pleasure from blowing up people hiding in the cockpit or on top of the crane," and the game's makers believe about 20 million people could be at risk. That would be a lot of map pack downloads if they're right.

I haven't been feeling any mapathy personally during my "MW2" sessions of late -- just day care delusions from the hyper-active racist 12-year-olds that manage to find the same servers I do and brief flashes of spawn-jà vu from the campers who take me out several times in a row after I've rematerialized in a recurring location.

Is March 30th going to be soon enough for you? Are you looking forward to the new "MW2" map packs? Share your thoughts in the comment section below.
