This is a love/hate relationship with this game...
Modern Warfare 2 Stimulus Package, is basically not a stimulus package, take COD4's variety map pack, that was 10 dollars, and still is ten dollars. This is 15 dollars for 5 maps, 3 dollars for each, as good as that sunds, it's not worth it. Two of the maps are exactly the same fan-favorites from COD4, Crash and Overgrown, but exactly the same except for some graphic enhancements for HD purposes. The three others are all pretty much bad, but have some goodness in it. I'll start with the best, Salvage. now Salvage is a snowy construction site meant for flanking and camping, which is what people like, but most people don't do it. It can get a bit confusing and lose your place if you run around long enough. There are also open parts that also include a two story lodge which is great for semi-automatic snipers, or if your hardcore, you can try blot action. The next best is Storm, and like the name says, its in the middle of a storm. This is basically a factory for mannequins which can be creepy but is also great camping spot for those so-called noobs. This is a so-so map but is great for flanking with camping and is also a great scare scene. The least favorite is Bailout, and this is in the middle of a apartment complex, from the level Exodus from the campaign. This is crappy because of the fact that there's too many flanks and camping spots in this one to even be fair, it's also a pretty bad sniping map in disguise, by that I mean that while you can snipe, there are too many flankers and too many campers for it to be any fun, or any fair. Now I'll talk about the revamps, Crash and Overgrown. Crash is the best because of how much of a wel-balanced map it is, it felt almost like the food chain. Snipers can go up on any of the 4 rooftops, and get a few kills, before you get knifed by a flanker, who gets shot while coming down a ladder by a dude with a assault rifle, and so on. So this is the best after all maps even without changes, even after three years. Overgrown is the second best because its basically for campers in gillie suits hiding in the long grass, or for snipers in one of the 6 buildings. There is also a blown up gas station meant for campers with urban gillie suits.
Well that's all, but is it worth fifteen dollars? NO. Maybe the same as the variety map pack, ten dollars.
good-some decent maps, graphical enhancements for HD purposes for the two originals, Crash and Overgrown are still awesome.
bad-not worth 15 dollars, the new maps aren't all that good, too many flanking routes on the new maps as well as too many camping spots.
