Subject: Any other way to ger recon?

Ok so does anybody know how else to get recon besides the Vidmaster Achievements? I have a problem because I can only get three of them and they are: 7 on 7, mythic skulls, and the lieutenant. The reason is because I don't have a hard drive and like those are the only three I can get that don't require one (the way I got the mythic skulls was because of ODST the full map pack CD) and I have recon for firefight because I beat the game on Legendary, But is there any other way to get it for halo 3 besides the Vidmaster Achievements? Because I really don't want to go out and buy a hard drive for like $50 or $100 dollars. If anybody knows please tell me how. I'm not asking like bungie or anything to have it, but I want to earn it and I don't know how besides the achievements.

That's the only way now. Bungie is pretty much giving it away to millions of people now, I don't see what's so special about it anymore. It doesn't even look that good.

Well they're giving it out by making it obtainable by a few simple achievements.
I don't see why everybody got so upset when Bungie decided to program their own armor permutation in that only they could have. The world is full of whiny idiots who do, unfortunately, get their way.

yeah I agree, originally bungie would give out recon only for people who would like do tournaments, then people who got on bungie favorites and like do amazing things, now everyone has it so it's not all that special anymore, and really all bungie has left is the flaming recon helmet, which there not going to give out because its for bungie workers only.

Yep exactly.

I think bungie should've done like legs as well, cause like all you do is your upper half of your body, and the rest of your body is just boring, although I don't know if they would effect the walking or not.

Probably not...
It's a good idea to have a hard drive anyway, not just for recon.

yeah *laughing out loud* it probably is, I just don't really want to spend like 100 bucks on one though.

I agree, I have Recon and I don't wear it. But if you still want reconz, just borrow a friends harddrive or plug in a USB if that works.

don't you need a hard drive to play xbox live and get achievements? but yeah, it is a good idea to get a hard drive for many reasons, DLC, xbox live, achievements, etc.
