If you purchased Modern Warfare 2’s latest DLC “Stimulus Package” on the first day it came out, then there is some good news for you. Microsoft have decided to reward these customers by adding an extra 7 days to their Xbox Live Gold membership for free.

Celebrate the release of Modern Warfare 2’s stimulus package map pack with double the amount of experience. From now till April 5th everything will be DOUBLED. Which means next time you frag some kills, be sure to display your broaden sense of sportsman ship and say their death was two times better than usual. This double XP week is for all players, so you don’t need the stimulus package to get the benefits. That’s probably a good thing since those maps seem way over priced.

Infinity Ward is showing their fans that they do care and have a cure for what they call “mapathy”. Check out the self-help website to see exactly what that is, because chances are you may have one or more of the symptoms. Aside from delving into your Modern Warfare 2 psyche, the best thing on the site is the release date for the upcoming downloadable content: March 30, 2010. That’s some good news indeed.
