Bungie's big reveal teased: A Halo 3 campaign expansion

MasterChief-"wake me when you need me".
Cortana- "Um chief uhh you gotta wake up the ODST'S just landed on a city and are taking over they need you!"
MasterChief-"Damn I just went to sleep can these people do anything on there own?!"

lol good news so once we beat this add on there will be an ending that is going to lead on to Halo 4!

did anybody else notice the flood area:danger warning I can't confirm it seeing as how I can't seem to pause it at the right moment... but it should be near the maddie line

This is from the "Pardon My Dust" article in bungie.net . This is some kind of chatlog before or after the events in the video, between an Admiral and an S1, which i guess S1 stands for Spartan1. So i guess we are going to still be playing as a Spartan, but its and S1 not an SII like masterchief.

MC's name is John 117, possibly explaining the 1117 reference.
I think they could abandon MC for an expansion, such as Half-Life Blue Shift. Definitely a possibility.

What a lame comment...

halo is lame!

HOLY SHIT!! this is the best thing bungie could have done. this is awesome!!

i dont think the thing falling is a bomb because if you go frame by frame you can see what appears to be a window...

sorry but this looks stupid

Just to confirm that yes those are in fact ODST Pods as if you go frame by frame right after the longest scene where you see the Pods falling and then there are 16 other pods going in a different direction. So right after this you can see a pic of the pod but is shows the Metal Parachute thing that ODST pods have. So I think this should be confirmed. Also I'm starting to think that Maddie is an AI as because I doubt SI would be interested with MC right after a whole city goes boom. Also I think this because an AI wouldn't rely on a spartan as ussually they are not specific in there answers as what I think a AI can. But maybe I wrong.
I hope more clues come to follow.

for those who dont know what a QDST looks like go here.

In the part when you see the green background and all the sentences in a red box, you see something at 37,20 seconds. It says, Danger: FloodZone. A splitsecond after that, you see this: Final Notice: Bill Past DUE.

That first may mean that the flood has come up again. With the second sentence they may mean Bill Gates (Microsofts Chairman).

If someone could decript it... I can't.
