I am thinking you will play as an ODST based on the slogan "prepare to drop", but I am also, thinking that it may have something to do with the brutes. Maybe something like halo 2 where you played MC and the Arbiter.

Edit: Ah of course, it is about the ODST's it has a picture of one right on the cover. -.-

Now I am wondering if this will be a dual release, G4W and X360. Cause if so, you know I would purchase it for PC. Only time will tell :ohwell:

I like parakeets. Mine died once and we left her in the garage until summer. She changed colors as a parlor trick.

Another Halo game, eh? Wow...

I doubt it, dont forget this is an expansion to Halo 3, so unless Halo 3 comes out for PC in the next 12months...

Halo has great multiplayer.

Gears of War is great for the casual player.

Fable (and most likely Fable 2) is the best all around game on the Xbox 360.

Agreed, Halo and Gears of War are just make it worth it.

I can't wait for Gears 2, less than a month now! :D

What, you guys think Halo is cool because it has launch pads?? that's been done in Quake 1.

Upgrade to Call of Duty 4, and get your asses handed to you. If anyone even mentions Halo in a CoD4 game, they are auto-booted.

Honestly, why would you even bother posting this. No one cares.

This thread is about the Halo 3 Recon expansion. Not in your opinion what is the best FPS multiplayer game.

CoD4 is a good multiplayer game but Ive had ALOT more fun at LANs with Halo1, 2, and 3.

Im guessing the "no more Halo games" thing is a fluke. Cant wait for this.

I wouldn't mind a little something more. I think they need to do more special events online like last halloween's zombie mode to hold us out for another year. That was effing fun!

I was thinking the same thing. I thought Bungie said they were going to take a break from the Halo series. I didn't believe that they would be done for good, but I thought they were going to make a game or two not based on Halo before they made another Halo game. This looks pretty interesting though, looks like you play as a shock trooper and not Master chief. Should be good, I can't wait.

From what i was reading a while back i thought Bungie gave Microsoft the finger?

Well I know they did buy themselves back from Microsoft, so they are an independent game developer once again. I do believe that they stated for the time being they are going to continue to develop games for the xbox 360 exclusively. Besides Microsoft owns the Halo IP, so for the time being your only going to see halo games on the xbox and windows based pc.
