Subject: Heroic Map Pack Announced for Halo 3

"oh bother" said Winne The Pooh as he chambered another round.

lol 3rd page best i've ever done and stop complaining about paying money bungie worked for 2 months on this game and spent probaly thousands of dollars to get this out, and you expect them to just HAND IT TO YOU? and Bungie is probaly extremely satisifed with their 200+ million dollars if I work for my dad even if he just gave me 250$ for my birthday i still expect to get paid for it.

great announcement... where´s a patch?

  • 11.19.2007 1:02 PM PDT

What's up? I'm Anthony, from Maryland. I play a lot of video games, too many. Enjoying the Halo Reach Beat right now. Also Halo was kind of my life from the age of 11-14.

Awesome, can't wait untill the new maps come out. More infection forging at my disposal.

Damn you roor!

Where are the small symmetrical maps? Foundry, I hope? At least stand-off is symmetrical, but we already have a bunch of MEDIUM symmetrical maps(pit, isolation, etc). We are DYING for small maps, freakin' tiny ones that force us into action constantly!!!

The VERY FIRST thing bungie ever said about DLC for h3 was that they knew they were lacking in the small-symmetical map department and that that would get the treatment first. So much for that...

I'll be passing on these at $10 for only three maps. I would've jumped at four maps. Didn't I just read a preview on bungie.net about four maps a couple weeks ago, and then you pull one of them from the map pack? Lame.

I'll stick with COD4 and its 16 maps.

I am soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, Not going to buy these maps. I will wait for when the maps are released for free. Cause the last time I dwnlded maps on Halo2 I didnt have them for 3 months, and they were not worth the 4$ worth of headache to never get a response back or too about the situation.
I was screwed over last time I am not having it happen again, so in turn by spring time there free. I can wait. I am not forking out about 10$ for 3 maps and then 10$ for another 3 maps until the game has Halo4 made. I am not being suckered into this one bit. Its sad too, cause they look interesting. Oh well, HERES TO FREE FOR SPRING SINCE almost 70bucks is out on XBOX LIVE!


So would you rather go blow $100 at the bar? I would rather buy a 12-pack for $7 bucks and some maps for $10. C'mon, it's cheaper than a movie.

Standoff...mmmmmmmm....

  • 11.19.2007 1:07 PM PDT

Wow new maps, can't wait. A little over priced but I doubt that Bungie has final say over pricing. Like when Microsoft was forcing Epic to charge for their Gears of War map pack. I doubt Microsoft would give this out for free.

OMG, I just realised there would have to be a female brute recorded too. What would that sound like?

Yeah... I'm happy for DLC... I think it sucks that you have to pay for it. A lot, actually. But I'll probably do it anyway... That gamerpoints crap sure is a slippery slope, eh?

  • 11.19.2007 1:10 PM PDT

games never over til its over

they look increadible....cant wait

  • 11.19.2007 1:10 PM PDT

I think that was a really bad idea admitting this was left out of the original HALO 3 release. I love the HALO series. I think Bungie has done a wonderful job, but damn, $10 for three maps??? One of which was admittedly supposed to be included in the original release? I also thought that there was Moon Base Alpha and Purple Reign included with these. I will seriously have to consider spending $10 on three maps when Assassin's Creed, COD 4 and Mass Effect are all great games and can occupy my time until spring. A $5 price point on these maps would be much more appealing. Either that or throw in another map or two, please. I have a dozen friends that I regularly play H3 online with, and we have been discussing that this is severely overpriced all morning long.

Please, reconsider the pricing on this.

Exalted is considered "the highest" because you can't get any bans or warnings of any kind for quite a long time, which is harder than just being a member for a long time.

Is this a slip-up referring to the future of BTB?

it will really add to the Big Team Battle matchmaking hoppers online <-- HopperS = splitting BTB?

I certainly hope so

Infiltrate09 and all of the people who are complaining about 10 bucks need to shut you mouths when you're talking to bungie.

i was excited. Now im dissapointed. (maps just look a bit boring, the first one'll be fun though i'd prefer Blood Gulch (it's too small)
I'll wait until spring when its free

Eat Me

THANKS BUNGIE,,,,,,to all those people who are still whinging about mlg game types and what not,,,GET OVER IT,,,no other game has put out dlc so soon,,,so STOP WHINGING,,,

  • 11.19.2007 1:21 PM PDT

Wow! MS is really screwing us on the pricing. I know art resources is expensive but MS will probably make another 10 million on these maps. Hardly seems fair since we only got the game 2 months ago. I know Bungie would release these free if they could, but I won't be playing until they are.

Please if you feel that the maps should be free DON'T pay for them. It's the only way to send the message to MS. The already charge us a $10 premium on the 360 games $60 per year to play online don't let $10 for each tiny bit of DLC become the standard.
