Looks like a Ghost Recon map. Looks like Christian Allen (ex Ghost Recon MP lead) is having some influence on Halo 3 maybe?

reminds me of the Halo 2 Campaign map when you first get to the halo ring

Wow, just think if they let the community make hundreds of maps (with 5 or so gems) instead of using 4 months to make one map.

Speaking of Halo 3 becoming a 'ghost town,' I noticed Call of Duty 4 was _again_ number 1 on the charts ahead of Halo 3 last week. That's the second week in a row and the third time in the last month or so. Halo certainly has nothing to worry about, but it's interesting that a multi-platform game can have as much presence on Bungee and Microsoft's home field.

yeah, i read 'ghost town' and figured that halo 3's popularity on live was falling even more.

Does that screenshot look a bit out of place in the universe, or is it just me?

Wonder if it'll be free. I never buy map packs because the industry standard has been free since Doom was released.

They charge for a pack of maps for a few months and then they become free. I'm guessing the Heroic Map Pack that came out earlier will be free when this map pack is released.

Well, now Microsoft can get more of my money... *goes to budget out the money for Commanders! and N+ on Live and the maps, and the games from the next 3 months*

Microsoft barely gets money from it (they don't own bungie). also, they only get money for putting the content up (not from N+ games etc)

I wish they would occasionally make gametypes that had 16 players on small maps like this. Nothing wrong with an occasional n00bfest.

Ghost Town? As a place where no one resides? Sounds like Halo 3 to me! Oh snapz!

You might be right, worth checking out ( once the maps become free of course).

Did anyone else think of the Gears of War level in that interior garden shot, the one where you fight the Berserker in that indoor garden?

Yes, but I wasn't quite sure of why it looked familiar until I read your post.

Looks like a good map. Hopefully they add one more game type before they're "done" with the game. I'd be great if it's a Counter-Strike: Source like mode where you buy weapons. I guess "Economics" would be a good name. Then have "Supply & Demand"(where the more people buy a weapon the more it costs) & "Power Struggle"(similar to Crysis' PS mode) variants. Other than that Halo's multiplayer is perfect in my opinion.

hopefully they don't rip people off and charge so much for only three maps, at least five should be included for the price they are charging.

If console people would stop paying for extra maps, they would probably stop charging for them.
Either that or stop making them...
But still. Wait until it is free.

Looks great, but either I'm going to hope they charge less for the map pack, since it doesn't have foundry or so far anything worth as much in terms of replayability...

If you couldn't handle that mouthful (I'm sure your used to it, HA I'm such a killer a jokes), I'm just saying if its cheap I'll get, else I'll wait for free!
