Yeah, "Original," except for that PC map. Oh yeah, that's right, PC halo doesn't count to you guys.

I immediatly thought of Gephyrophobia remake when i saw that pic. That level was sure fun. Had 4 snipers too :p

Most so called halo fans have actually missed out on halo pc, which was actually one of the most fun experiences ever. Halo pc shipped with 6 new out door maps (compared with halo xbox which only contained 2 outdoor maps with vehicles (blood gulch and sidewinder). The thing is, the halo pc maps where damn near perfect. My favorite was deffenitly death island. Infinity was also great along with danger canyon.

I played halo 1 back when it came out for the xbox and thought it was fun but way to limiting for my to care anythign about it. Then when it came for pc I loved it so much, I bought an xbox just for halo 2 (since halo 2 now was online on xbox). And to this day im a 360 fanboy.

So heres hoping for a death island remake woot.

Reminds me of Halo: Combat Evolved for PC's Gephyrophobia.

We already saw this map in one of the viddocs if I'm not mistaken, and in various interviews with bungie it's been talked about. That having been said, atleast IGN gets to claim (wrongly) that it had an exclusive for once in the past year.

It's hardly a Gephyrphobia remake. Where are the banshees? The massive pathways on either side of the canyon? That's a pretty big difference. Rather than a remake its more what Valhalla is to Coagulation.

I loved the extra maps with Halo PC that Gearbox made, especially Death Island.

The only similarity this new map has with Gephyrphobia is that it's based on a bridge...

There's no such thing as an 'original' map anymore, they're all derivative.. what matters is item placement & flow though. That can be original.

There's many ways to skin a cat...

Listen, let's not get so damn techical here. A NEW map is a NEW map. Let's not for get that it's F'in Halo 3!! Not only is this game going to be an AWESOME Single/Co-op Player game but the Multi-Player On-Line battles are going to rule the 360 for years to come!! I could'nt stop playing the Beta, I'm sure that I won't be able to put down the full version of this game!!

Sounds like a sweet map - I like the simple ones that encourage fast action!
having mid-air-man-cannon-battles sounds cool too!

Reminds me off facing worlds in Unreal Tournament. Looks good. Agree with @17. Simple ones are the best for pure fun and lightning fast action.

HOLY SHIT CUPPA! I COMEPLETELY MISSED THAT! THAT IS FUCKED UP! lol

Excerpt from the article on Bungie.net about the M7 SMG:
"I’ve seen a Spartan use two at once—tearing the xxxx out of the little ones; sending the big ones down in bloody heaps. But I guess that’s what ya gotta be to pull it off: an action-movie hero or a seven-foot-tall walking tank."

ahahahah..."seven-foot-tall walking tank"

Another excerpt... this time about the shotty:
"Actually, I think the jury is still out on whether it means ‘STFU and STFD’ or ‘you ain’t gonna make it."

AHAHHAHAHA awesome.

This map looks like it's gonna pwn all! The design and concepts of the map look very much like Valhalla meets Coagulation and Ascension meets Assault on the Control Room, ALL of which are very awesome single/multiplayer maps! Can't wait to make films on this map! SEPTEMBER 25 IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER!!!!!

I love all these new things for Halo 3 but to many remakes like maps; Last Resort=Zanzibar Gephyrophobia=Narrows weapons; all of the ones from Halo 2 are coming to Halo 3 [they were in the beta] plus the flamethrower Vehicles;so far from what I know the Ghost,Warthog,Wrath plus if you got the special edition Halo 2 watch the making of video and go to the cutting room floor the Mongoose was desined before they had the first halo finished.All Im saying is all Bungie has to do is get the old stuff and do a little bit of this and that make it pretty for Halo 3 and boom good as new. Easy as for all the hard work is already done. But Im sure Bungie isnt going to show us all of the new things in Halo 3 They still have alot up there sleve.Trust me the game will be incredible no matter what!
