You already know about Cold Storage, the remake of a classic Halo: Combat Evolved map for Halo 3. You already know about Bungie Day, which is this Monday, July 7. Hell, you even already even know that Cold Storage will be free on Bungie Day (and forever after). But, we know you still crave knowledge regarding the latest Halo 3 content. Lucky for you, a few Bungie employees banded together to create a new VIDoc, aptly named "On the Seven7th Day," to showcase Cold Storage and compare it with its Halo: Combat Evolved father, Chill Out. There's even a tease early on that Bungie may have something new to announce in the future. If only there were large scale industry events for such an announcement!

Bungie is a shining example of how game developers should treat their fans. Kudos!

You can play custom games with the free map WITHOUT the legendary map pack. However, if you want to play it in playlists, it's only due to be in some special DLC playlists for a while which require the Legendary map pack.
In other words, Bungie are rewarding those of us who shelled out the money for Legendary by letting us play it in Playists, but still letting those who refuse/can't buy the Legendary map pack use it outside of that FOR NOW. I'm sure it'll be put in the main playlists like Heroic next month.

600? make it 400 points and I'll think about it.I bought Heroic back in the day and no sir I didn't like it and then it was free.
I rather wait for Valve who might never deliver TF2 maps.

To be fair, although I loved the Heroic map pack for Standoff alone, it wasn't all that great.
The Legendary map pack is so worth it. I'm serious. 600 points is a STEAL. Ghost Town is fantastic, Avalanche is brilliant fun and Blackout is good ol' frantic Lockout. Seriously, if you like Halo in any way, shell out the points.
Plus, if you buy it you can play the Chill Out map in playlists (since it's in ALL DLC ONLY playlists exclusively for a while). So essentially your getting 4 maps for playlists for the price of 2! (since they dropped the price!)

So a 7 player free-for-all playlist. Will it be ranked? Cause a free map and another way to get some achievements might just be to good.

Lukems said they were a multi-game developer now. Is that a joke or an announcement?

Did anyone else notice on the screen right before that, the words at the bottom flash "Keep it Clean" just like ilovebee.com. The definitely has something to do with the plumber guy.

Also at the very end of the video at the Bungie logo the Superintendent logo is faded in the top right corner.
