    A solid new addition to the Call of Duty experience and some of the best maps I've played in a long time.

    The overall package could stand to be more robust, but thanks to Mayday, Devastation still packs a punch. [July 2014, p.77]

    Sure the $15.00 dollar price tag is a tad hefty but when you consider you get four incredibly detailed maps, a new weapon that kicks ass, a new Extinction level and let’s not forget the Predator, Devastation is solid. Period.

    Even if only two maps of four are really cool and innovative ("Ruins" with Predator is excellent!), this new DLC offers a nice episode for the Extinction Mode, an interesting weapon and of course a lot of fun in multiplayer.

    I'm really glad that Infinity Ward decided to model their DLC packs after Treyarch, and include an additional story-related component on top of the standard maps. $14.99 seems like a high price to non-fans, but I've played enough of Extinction mode to fit in the length of a few major releases -- the other maps are basically a bonus.

    An improvement on the first map pack and not just because of the Predator, but Call Of Duty in general could really do with a change of scenery.

    If you’re a major Call of Duty fan, I don’t have to tell you to buy a season pass for Ghosts and the remaining DLC packs. However, if you’re a casual player like me, reconsider your purchase of the Hardened or Veteran or Super-Soldier pack with the included remote control helo-tank when the next yearly entry rolls around. Chances are you won’t keep up with the competition to justify the included DLC codes anyway.

    So, as with the last round of DLC, it's the Extinction episode that stands out. Players have to make their way through the depths of a large boat, fighting off alien hordes and the aforementioned kraken as they do so. Far more enjoyable than the other maps, it's a bright spot on an otherwise uninspired pack.

Ghosts has it's problems, but dlc sure to prove the make up of Their mistakes. Mp map unearthed take s you to the reskin of map dome. It provides that still great chaotic feel to the map. Behemoth is long narrow map from long to short range combat. Known as knife city( hence the name) it provides good movement for kill based modes and objective modes. Ruins offers a great hype out all of them, mainly because of the Predator. Though the map can be campy, it has good routes to hunt your enemy. Collision is also a pretty good map offering good short to long rang engagement on the crashed ship. The dlc gun, the ripper, is a great gun addition released after the maverick, which proves to be a better weapon . Moving to extinction it provides a great sequel to the episodic series were Samantha is evil now and you have to kill a kraken! Overall the dlc is worth every penny… Full Review »

Devastation launched with four maps which actually redeem Call of Duty: Ghosts for me, along with a new weapon I consider a valuable asset. The maps are much brighter in colour and are well suited to SMG and Assault Rifle weapons. I haven't played the Extinction mode for this DLC yet. As a recommendation, I'd buy this over the first Onslaught DLC. Enjoy.… Full Review »
