HONEY MUSTARD!!!

I hope we could destroy that moniter. I don't know how much I wanted to Kill 343GS! As soon as I get it it is going to be rockets and see how many it take to destroy one of these things.

You guys really need a map with a decent strategic layout like Lockout instead of constantly making circular symmetrical maps that dont require any thought into your position in relation to weapon layout and enemy positions.

No, the new maps cost money just like Sanctuary and Turf cost money when they came out.

Also all those people who think this map looks like one of the weakest maps you guys are soooo stupid. This map looks so sweet in action if you had seen it on the Xbox magizine demo disc. This looks like one of the coolest new maps not one of the weakest. I think that Gemeni (shown on the Xbox demo disc) looks like one of the worst maps of the bunch however all the maps look freakin sweet and it seems like you cant go wrong with any of the new maps. Good job Bungie.

This concludes our tour of Backwash, but don't worry – the map will be in your hands in just a few more weeks. The Halo 2 Multiplayer Map Pack will be released in retail stores on July 5th and includes NINE multiplayer maps, a bonus documentary, a short cinematic and all of the Halo 2 auto updates. Alternatively, all five new maps will be available as an Xbox Live premium download starting July 5th.

Im confused about that. They said that it will be realeased in stores for 9 maps n some other stuff. but if you download it off of x box live, they onyl give you 5 maps. why?

I think its an awsome map and ill look forward to playing it. Shotgun and sword on that map = total toastage

Because on the disc they give you the four new maps that are already out right now (Warlock, Containment, Turf, And Sanctuary) plus the 5 new ones that are coming out on July 5th. If you download them off Xbox live then you buy the 5 new maps seperatly from the 4 that are out right now. Do you get it now?

when he said its cool when the sword cuts through the fog does it actualy move the fog or what? that would be cool if the fog moved if someone walked through it and finally the setinal beam is actualy going to be used and yes zombies would be awsome here plus a little creapy!

Backwash looks cool and all but if you guys haven't seen Relic yet than you are missing out. Man that is by far the coolest map and i cant wait to play that one.
