A few days ago I noticed that an old story about the Call of Duty: World at War map pack was suddenly receiving a huge amount of hits.
A lot of the visitors were leaving comments asking when the Map Pack 1 would become available and I just presumed the PSN store was slow in updating as all the visitors were coming from outside of the States and mainly from the EU and Australia.
Well I shot of an email to Treyarch (the developers) but unfortunately it’s the weekend and I haven’t received a response yet so here is what I have been able to piece together from some research on the Internet.
1. The Map Pack 1 is out and available for most people
2. To find it you must go to [Add Ons] -> [Disc-Based Games] -> it’s the 6th one down.
3. If you live in Australia the maps have been delayed by a week, I can’t find any reason for this. Same story for Ireland.
4. Don’t download the US one as it is also apparently region locked.
Okay that’s it, if I find any more information or some official comment I will let you know.

On the Xbox 360 the map packs are blocked as we don’t have official Live support. On the PSN they just don’t seem to be appearing and we are not being told why.
