Oh man do I wish I could go to PAX. Can't wait for the new map whenever it gets here. Looks amazing.

Halo 3 multiplayer is frustrating.

Looks a bit confusing. The Map that is. Anyone knows if it's possible to fall off?

If you want a quality threesome, save up a couple hundred bucks and get it from experienced Asian prostitutes.

If its okay about me asking, just one question...very important to me (by the way it looks GORGEOUS!)

In size, which current Halo 3 level could you compare Purple Reign to? (Ex. Avalanche; Last Resort; or like Isolation)

Okay?

Assembly? Not sure how that ties in with the map. To me it looks like what the rooms in Cortana were originally before they were taken over by the Flood.
How about naming it "Purple Is Purple"?

Nice update...it has been a while. I have a question though. Is PAX ever going to come to the east coast?

Death is only the Beginning

The new map looked pretty good actually, sadly I could not get a chance to play it. The booth was PACKED!! But on the upside I got to meet the RvB cast and get some pics with them. Hopefully I will get to see Jenn and Marty tomorrow!!!!

The Sentinel Beam isn't excluded from Matchmaking due to any performance concerns. It's excluded because it's ridiculous. It may as well be firing super-accelerated clowns. - Shishka

I really hope it's not Microsoft holding these maps back. Bungie should be able to sell us maps whenever they want. :)

Nice update!

Unlike others though I'm not that excited about the screenshots about Assembly. The map just doesn't really appeal to me, the map looks rather small, and just like Blackout I really don't like playing on small maps. But maybe I'm just totally wrong and the map could be totally awesome, but I think I just need to get used to a rather new kind of map to Halo 3...

"When we know we'll let you know. We promise."

Is it just me or do Bungie promises mean a lot less than they used to. Following the pattern of the last major promise (E3) we shouldn't ever expect to play this map.

That map looks beastish. Kind of like a mix between Gemini and Midship.



Exactly what I was thinking XD
Thanks for the screenies Bungie! :)
