If you own a calendar, we suggest you mark July 7, 2009, on it, as that day will see select Bungie developers playing folks in Halo 3. Playing with the developers of your favorite game isn't the only exciting news, as the latest episode of the Bungie podcast mentions some folks will walk away with the coveted Recon Armor.
Lasting the 24 hours of July 7, players can step into a new playlist (4 vs. 4) and throw down for their chance at the ever-elusive armor set. There aren't any details regarding what exact maps will comprise this playlist, though it was mentioned that it will feature 32 community-made variant maps. Let's just hope that Bungie doesn't cheat this time around.

I have a feeling they have already pre-destined the winners. Either way, I'll play and make 'em beg for mercy.

Im sure there are going to be like 50,000+ players and like 50 staff meaning being able to play them will be like winning the lottery. Than once playing them you have to win in order to get recon, and I dont know about you but if I was given that opportunity choking would occur.

yeah but the games last around 10 minutes, so divide 5,000 by how many 10 minutes are in 24 hours, and last year they gave it away for the most double kills and stuff, so there will probably be people monitoring the stats, so it should be possible to win big.

This isn't really a good prize considering when ODST comes out everyone will be able to get Recon armour anyway.

I honestly think the Recon permutation is ugly as sin. Scout all the way. But cool for those that want it, I guess.
