In the heart of Africa, at the dawn of time. They built it.

S3NATOR has brilliantly taken the next philosophical and theoretical step, and advanced mankind once more. For that, I'm forever grateful.

That is sweet! I can't wait for these. Who did the voice over and is it original or from something?

  • 04.03.2008 12:16 PM PDT

Whoa, was anyone else a little creeped out by the video? lol.

The voice reminded me so much of the narrators in the WarCraft III cinematics and adverts.

Does anyone else think that you will be able to jump on top of the roof areas on blackout. Those jumps look very do able. Especially snipe tower up by the big dish. There will probably be a big invisible wall.


Trailer looked good. I think the color was off, or my monitor isn't set up the same as my TV.
I'm pretty sure that the coloring was purposely altered to add to the dark mood of the trailer. I never thought a promotion for DLC would be quite so well-crafted.

I'm not sure but I thought that stood for "Do It YOurself" to cover the whole Build your own stuff on Foundry topic. I might be wrong but Whatever, I hope RVB does something too.

Yea the collor was made darker for Avalanche definitely and the opening shot of GHost Town is from inside a log so that explains the darkness there.

ok... wtf. why don't we just get the legendary map pack for free, i mean, instead of paying 800 microsoft points to play halo, why can't xbox live mems. get it for free????

  • 04.03.2008 12:21 PM PDT

HOLY CRAP!!!!! I CAN'T HANDLE IT!!!!

But seriously, I'm excited.

  • 04.03.2008 12:21 PM PDT

Looks cool Bungie, I can't wait. It's so close! I've got my points ready. Sidewinder, here I come!!

"Only through the destruction of our enemies do we earn our salvation."

Maps looks sweet, and I can't wait till they come up, I look forward to playing them. And marshal the reason they aren't free, is because I'm sure Bungie would love to give them to us for free. But they have no say in it. Microsoft has the ultimate say, and they will be money hungry until the day they become a monopoly.

I feel much more comfortable with this purchase than I did with the Heroic map pack because of the remakes; they're a known variable. I loved Lockout and enjoyed Sidewinder, so I'm pretty excited to get my hands on their Halo 3 counterparts.

That said, I was very happy with Foundry, Standoff and Rat's Nest. To each their own.

I saw the Master chief's armour colour on one of the players, does this mean we're getting it for use in matchmking and custom games?

Endurance, Speed, Defense!


I was wondering who'd finally get it. Nice job picking up on it. And nice trailer Bungie!

Darkness
By Lord Byron



I had a dream, which was not all a dream.
The bright sun was extinguish'd, and the stars
Did wander darkling in the eternal space,
Rayless, and pathless, and the icy earth
Swung blind and blackening in the moonless air;
Morn came and went--and came, and brought no day,
And men forgot their passions in the dread
Of this their desolation; and all hearts
Were chill'd into a selfish prayer for light:
And they did live by watchfires--and the thrones,
The palaces of crowned kings--the huts,
The habitations of all things which dwell,
Were burnt for beacons; cities were consum'd
And men were gather'd round their blazing homes
To look once more into each other's face;
Happy were those who dwelt within the eye
Of the volcanos, and their mountain-torch:
A fearful hope was all the world contain'd;
Forests were set on fire--but hour by hour
They fell and faded--and the crackling trunks
Extinguish'd with a crash--and all was black.
The brows of men by the despairing light
Wore an unearthly aspect, as by fits
The flashes fell upon them; some lay down
And hid their eyes and wept; and some did rest
Their chins upon their clenched hands, and smil'd;
And others hurried to and fro, and fed
Their funeral piles with fuel, and look'd up
With mad disquietude on the dull sky,
The pall of a past world; and then again
With curses cast them down upon the dust,
And gnash'd their teeth and howl'd: the wild birds shriek'd
And, terrified, did flutter on the ground,
And flap their useless wings; the wildest brutes
Came tame and tremulous; and vipers crawl'd
And twin'd themselves among the multitude,
Hissing, but stingless--they were slain for food.
And War, which for a moment was no more,
Did glut himself again: a meal was bought
With blood, and each sate sullenly apart
Gorging himself in gloom: no love was left;
All earth was but one thought--and that was death
Immediate and inglorious; and the pang
Of famine fed upon all entrails--men
Died, and their bones were tombless as their flesh;
The meagre by the meagre were devour'd,
Even dogs assail'd their masters, all save one,
And he was faithful to a corse, and kept
The birds and beasts and famish'd men at bay,
Till hunger clung them, or the dropping dead
Lur'd their lank jaws; himself sought out no food,
But with a piteous and perpetual moan,
And a quick desolate cry, licking the hand
Which answer'd not with a caress--he died.
The crowd was famish'd by degrees; but two
Of an enormous city did survive,
And they were enemies: they met beside
The dying embers of an altar-place
Where had been heap'd a mass of holy things
For an unholy usage; they rak'd up,
And shivering scrap'd with their cold skeleton hands
The feeble ashes, and their feeble breath
Blew for a little life, and made a flame
Which was a mockery; then they lifted up
Their eyes as it grew lighter, and beheld
Each other's aspects--saw, and shriek'd, and died--
Even of their mutual hideousness they died,
Unknowing who he was upon whose brow
Famine had written Fiend. The world was void,
The populous and the powerful was a lump,
Seasonless, herbless, treeless, manless, lifeless--
A lump of death--a chaos of hard clay.
The rivers, lakes and ocean all stood still,
And nothing stirr'd within their silent depths;
Ships sailorless lay rotting on the sea,
And their masts fell down piecemeal: as they dropp'd
They slept on the abyss without a surge--
The waves were dead; the tides were in their grave,
The moon, their mistress, had expir'd before;
The winds were wither'd in the stagnant air,
And the clouds perish'd; Darkness had no need
Of aid from them--She was the Universe.
