After reading and re-reading your post. Carefully examining every point you made, I have come to the conclusion that you left out evidence to substantiate your claim. Congratulations, you are an idiot.

Awesome!

Just two questions:
1) When can we expect these maps to hit the marketplace?
and
2) When can we expect to see the previous DLC for free? I have a LAN over Easter, so that would be a nice present... hint hint

That's what I thought the map would be when they first announced the Legendary Map Pack.

Thank you, Bungie!

I was born in '90, male, and an avid gamer.

I knew it was gonna be a sidewinder remake! where else could you put snow camoflaged hornets and tanks??? AVALANCHE FTW

I can't say I approve of another remake, even if it is well designed. Remakes don't take any creativity. Sidewinder is great for Halo 1, but Halo 3 needs more small to mid-sized levels. Guardian is the only map for good 2v2 battles (maybe foundry). There are plenty of BTB maps already. I hope the third map isn't a remake.

I'm definitely happy that bungie is still working hard to keep this game fresh. The hornets might make this level better than it's CE counterpart. Who knows.

It says April 15th for new maps and im guessing heroic will be free then.

they talked about new forge items for avalanche, any clues on what these could be?

also wish they would have given an image of the complete map. im trying to see how the bases are connected across the map. but i just see the fronts of the 2

WOW you know this game is a total departure of even Halo Multiplayer, forget about how bad this game is compared to halo 2 multiplayer. I mean forget that for a second. So what does this mean. NEW maps for 800 points, old maps probually free that same day. Yeah what a coinincidence.

Lets not forget BUNGIE you guys could push microsoft around since your game has more players than any two games combined being played. Oh trying to keep up with ROCKSTARS GTA huh duh out late april. This isnt going to help me out sorry. I will complain. The map reminds me of THE FORTRESS OF SOLITUDE it looks really good probually will be fun. 3rd map will depend on if i buy these maps or wait it out like the others since I do not believe in forking money for something to keep me interested in game play since this game has been a huge let down personally.

Whatever.

Keep trying to knock GTA back on the shelfs it isnt going to work. Diehard fans will play until there hands fall off, (I just dont know why halo3) the damn thing isnt balanced, theres nothing ever knew implimented, when asked you just get a run around on how it will not work for networking -blam!-. So when GTA is released I will see you when the 3rd map pack comes out. Thank you.
