Activision announced downloadable maps 7 and 8 to Call of  Duty: Elite premium members. So if
you didn't shell out the extra fifty bucks for the elite package, your out of luck. The content will be made available to  Xbox 360 users  right off the bat.

Sanctuary is a monastery that takes place perched high above Central Greece,
which only proves a good view is so important to have while your lining up your sites on the enemy. 
Foundation let's player fight to control this South Korean factory that's been long since abandoned.


So happy gaming to all of you Special Elite members who threw your cash at Activision and left us fallen comrades behind who were too cheap to dish out the dough for frilly extras.  It's ok, our flight's not canceled just delayed.  We'll meet you there.
