In preparation for tonight's online mayhem that is Halo 3 online multiplayer, Bungie posted all the information you could ever want about Halo 3's matchmaking and its playlists. Detailed over on Bungie.net, they discuss the new multiplayer features including the power of veto, experience points and an easier party up feature which we've all seen in the beta back in May. So, nothing really new there. But most exciting is the the list they posted of matchmaking playlists which will again be broken up into ranked and unranked (social) games with favorites like Team Slayer, Big Team Battle and Multi Team making an appearance. Though, one of the more curious changes is that the ranked version of Rumble Pit is now called Lone Wolf where they reduced the player count to five. All your Halo 3 matchmaking details are just a jump away, so start jumping and get learned.

This has been on Bungie.net for a couple days. Someone should post the link to Neil Blomkamp's new Halo short.

Wasn't there some special thing every one wanted that they were going to tell us about before the game came out? What was that?

I wonder why they reduced Multi-team to 4 teams of 2 instead of 4 teams of 3.

Still can't figure out on how to play with other people (not on friends list is apparantly not possible). Multiplayer is't good in halo 3
