Call of Duty 4 is one of the best first-person shooters of all time and still one of the most played games on Xbox Live to date. Many gamers, like myself, have put countless hours into the game and after putting so much time into a game, it can get boring. Although we have already been treated to some nice new maps via downloadable content, some of us may have already gotten bored with the new maps. But never fear, for there is more coming. Four new playlists are in the works and will be available for download soon. The playlists, which look awesome, have been in the works for a while.

Fourzerotwo, a developer at Infinity Ward, has been hard at work testing the new playlists and fixing bugs. The new game-types were suppose to go live this weekend, but they have found critical bugs that need to be removed before the new playlists are available for download. Here’s a quick look at the new playlists, thanks to TheGamersCafe:

• Bare-bones Team Deathmatch

  No more excuses. No more blaming Martyrdom or Juggernaut for your lack of skills and kills. Bare Bones Team Deathmatch eliminates the excuses and takes it back to basics with standard Team Deathmatch with no perks, no kill streak rewards. Just you, your skill, and your weapons.

• Hardcore HQ

  Hardcore HQ requires a lot more than just spamming the HQ position with nades and running in guns blazing. Hardcore HQ encourages more tactical gameplay and communication to win with increased damage, no HUD elements, and friendly fire on.

• Multi-bomb Search and Destroy

  Multi-bomb Search and Destroy starts every member of the attacking team with a bomb. So everyone has the opportunity to plant if they’re good enough.

• Hardcore FFA

  Even faster paced Free For Alls, where every bullet counts and playing smart is key for a solid k/d ratio. Standard Free for All rules, with Hardcore mode enabled for extra damage, no HUD, and no health re-gen.

Personally, I’m most excited for Multi-bomb Search and Destroy. It sounds really fun and seems like it will be very tactful. Also Hardcore FFA looks pretty good as well. But in the meantime, I challenge anyone to a couple of rounds of Call of Duty 4. Just get on our forums and hit me up with a PM and your Xbox Live gamertag (sorry, I don’t own a PS3). Go ahead and bring friends because I’ll bring mine! You might beat me, but I’m warning you, I’m pretty good.
