Having trouble passing the time? Don't know what to do until the Mythic maps are released in 2009 or the new Halo 3 campaign experience hits shelves next Fall? If you're as much a fan of campaign as I am, allow me to suggest taking your current game to the next level. That's right. Of course I'm speaking of Mythic Difficulty.
What exactly is Mythic difficulty? Completing the campaign on Legendary all skulls on with zero deaths and zero saves. For the sake of the walkthrough, this is typically performed solo rather than on co-op.
My Halo 3 Mythic Walkthrough (solo legendary all skulls on) is now available to view on HBO's website. This guide includes a text-based walkthrough of each segment of all nine missions and contains videos of all critcal areas. Of course the full length videos are also available for download from GameVee, and all nine videos will remain on my file share. A special thanks goes out to Louis Wu for not only hosting the walkthrough on his site, but also for all the hard work he has put into cleaning up my Mythic guide mess and turning it into something legable XD We will be releasing the missions one week at a time. The full walkthrough will be available for all to see in the weeks to come.
I'd also like to take this opportunity to thank GameVee for going vastly out of their way, above and beyond, to post all nine full-length missions on their site for your convenience. While the walkthrough on HBO is by far the best and most in-depth method in terms of a "complete package" and contains videos of all critical areas throughout the campaign, the GameVee videos are also there in case there's a segment you'd like to see that wasn't included in the video-portion of the walkthrough, yet you are already in the middle of a mission and don't want to exit out to view the file share run in theater mode. The above GameVee link will take you directly to all of my full Mythic runs. Thank you, GameVee, for supporting the Mythic community!!! :-)
And now I give you...

FAQ
Q. What is Mythic??
A. Solo Legendary All Skulls On with zero deaths and zero saves. Each mission must be run from start to finish without dying, saving, or quitting.
Q. What is the difference between Mythic Difficulty and SLASO?
A. Not much. However SLASO simply defines the game as being played solo legendary all skulls on. Mythic, however, states that there must be zero deaths and zero saves per mission, thereby making Mythic a far greater and more specific challenge. The same rules apply to co-op in the sense that no player may die in order to successfully complete the mission on Co-op Mythic.
Q. Is there any special ending for beating the game on Mythic?
A. No. It's the same as the Legendary ending. I imagine the people who would've been able to witness a Mythic ending would have been too few for such an effort. Bungie knew this.
Q. Do you get any new armor or reward for beating it on Mythic?
A. No. You do not unlock anything simply for beating the game on Mythic. That is unless you have yet to beat the game just on Legendary in which you would obtain the normal achievements associated with it.
Q. Do I have to have the silver skulls on for it to count as Mythic?
A. Yes. All skulls means ALL skulls.
Q. Can I have a friend help me complete the game on Mythic?
A. Well then it wouldn't be solo Mythic now would it?
Q. Do you have to turn on campaign scoring?
A. I've decided to update this to cause less confusion. In a word... yes. While it doesn't effect game-play directly, it's the simplest way to prove your success to the rest of the world and is a requirement to become a member of the Quest for Mythic group.
Q. What are the "Kamikaze" videos?
A. A separate, speedier, and more skillful avenue for certain areas of the game. Just like the "Slow & Steady" methods, they have been tested multiple times and are proven to work. However they do require excellent reaction time, a vast knowledge of the road ahead, and a fair bit of experience with Mythic.
Q. Why was I rejected from your group?
A. Simply put, read the rules. 99.9% of the time, it's because you haven't completed a Mythic level with scoring on and uploaded it to your file share. This must be done in order to gain acceptence into the Mythic group.
