Activision Touts Cure For ‘Mapathy’ With Modern Warfare 2 DLC

The first batch of downloadable content for Infinity Ward’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 will hit Xbox 360  on March 30, Activision revealed today. As pictured above, the publisher launched a teaser site with a heavy satirical slant, touting that said DLC is a cure for a tongue-in-cheek disorder known as “Mapathy.”

According to the site, affected individuals “no longer derive pleasure from blowing up people hiding in the cockpit or on top of the crane.” More self-help information is coming soon, which we’ll assume translates to staggered reveals of new maps over the next couple weeks. There’s no word on when this content will make its way over to PS3 or PC — consider it a timed exclusive on 360 for now.
