Well I think if you are an avid Halo player then the price is worth it because you know you are going to get hours and hours of enjoyment out of the maps. I mean you can't even get into a movie for 10 bucks these days and thats a whole 2 hours of entertainment.
On the other hand if you are busy playing other stuff or don't play halo regularly then it would probably just be best to wait till they are free. At least they will be free in the spring.

I 100% expected that comment to come... about being 'cheap' because I'm not impatient :|

Bought and downloaded the map-pack at 5 am this morning, just because I wanted to avoid some of the rush to get it. It took only two and a half hours but it's ready for me now:)
I feel for everyone in the bad icy weather, but I'm going to gladly postpone the H3 'pack for awhile and enjoy myself, since it's 62 degrees in Cincinnati today and I'm going out to enjoy it while I can. (Going to below freezing on Thursday again.) Such is Ohio weather!

The weather here SUCKS today... and I was tempted to just call in to work and tell them I wasn't going to make it.
Could have played the new maps, but oh well, they're waiting for me when I get home... :-)

Is the Halo DLC matchmaking hopper up yet? I checked it this morning, and I didn't see it.

When I purchased Halo 3 from Best Buy, I was able to purchase $20 worth of BillyBucks for $5... so I've convinced myself this map pack is only going to cost me $2.50 :)

I downloaded the pack and ran through the maps before work... they look like they will be fun. I hope they do put up a special hopper with just the new maps in it. Oh well.. see you guys online.

I'll be waiting til Spring. I have plenty of COD4 to play before I even think about wasting $10 on some maps.

This is pretty much my exact feeling. I like COD4 much better right now and will get back to Halo after some time, but because of this can easily wait for these to be free. Now if new maps for COD come out.... that is more of a must buy for me personally.

I hop on back and forth between these games, I think they both offer a unique experience. Halo's gameplay is Halo and hasn't changed much over the years (which is good), and COD 4 focuses on intense realism battles.
I'm happy that I can play and enjoy both games very much. $10 is chump change so I'll buy em'

$10 is chump change? Either your too young or have a good steady income. Not saying $10 is life or death, but shit, I can think of plenty of things for $10 that I would need/buy before spending it on videogame multiplayer maps.

Good income, but $10 not that much common now.
Theatre ticket: $9.50
Drink and Popcorn at theatre: $9
2 value meals at McD's: $10
1/4 gas: $10 (being generous here)
bottle of wine: $10
X3F pie: $10
Heroic Map Pack: priceless + $10
Whatever I really don't care, if you can't afford them or rather play a different game that's understandable ;) but $10 is not a lot of money nowadays

I thought the flame helmet was something unique to Bungie employees and friends....

So you don't use a debit card either? What do you do, write checks? Or do you have 100's in a box under your bed?
