With Cupid done shooting his arrows, you're free to head online and shoot your way back into manhood with ELITE Drop 3,"Overwatch." A multi-floor-frag-fest 70 stories up, it's just what you need to cure that V-Day hangover.

Premium Call of Duty® ELITE members receive new Call of Duty®: MW3 content every month of the season for their platform for 9 months. Overwatch, the new Modern Warfare® 3 multiplayer map, is available February 21st on Xbox Live for Call of Duty ELITE Premium members.

Non-premium Call of Duty ELITE members can still look forward to new content with Modern Warfare® 3 Content Collections, including maps, modes and other features previously released through content drops. Stay tuned for more details on the first Call of Duty®: MW3 Content Collection, available for purchase in March for Xbox Live users. Head to http://www.callofduty.com/elite for more information.

Be sure to stay tuned to Modern Warfare 3 Forum as we'll be bringing coverage of the map when it drops on February 21st.

So they copy/pasted the yellow Highrise crane?

and I love how everything, I mean everything is centered towards Xbox 360, when there are other platforms.

Just want to say that it looks awesome in the video, and that that guy cracks me up. Good stuff. Can't wait to get my prestige on again when they release for the PS3

Both good maps so a combination of the two is fine by me :)

Agreed. Highrise was a little too linear for my liking so if it's like that but with more flanking routes then i'll be happy.

As an individual map it looks cool and fun but it is definitely too similar to Highrise. Don't get me wrong, I love both Highrise and Hardhat (I've always thought of Hardhat as a mixture of Highrise and Quarry) AND I think that this map is actually better structured but they really need to put some more thought and creativity into these maps. They FULLY copied and pasted the yellow crane from Highrise. IW are so cheap and lazy.

Oh yes I couldn't agree with you more on that one. I know Microsoft had that deal with IW but this is just plain CRUELTY to PC and PS3 users.
