  Halo 3 Recon


Halo 3 Recon was announced tonight and is due to "drop" in fall 2009. Its a prologue to the H3 events and you play as an ODST marine. After watching the video it looks pretty cool but is going to be totally different with no shield, super strength, ect. Either way i am ridiculously excited about it!

I don't even know if its just DLC or if they would sell it in a box as well? I know november 17th the big xbox live update comes out and included is the ability to install games to your hard drive just like a computer, so with that coming I wouldn't be surprised at all if it was only able for download. Either way a whole new campaign, co-op, and multiplayer sounds good to me!!

The reason I'm guessing it's DLC is because all the references to it say Halo THREE specifically, and not just Halo. Since it's an entirely separate campaign from Halo 3, I assume the use of the full name is because it'll be a download for H3. I could be completely wrong, though.

I'm thinking there will be a retail version. It could be offered as DLC as well, but ultimately, they would miss out on potential sales from anyone without a HDD. Of course, I have no idea what that number is so I could be wrong.

Here's some additional info I just ran across:

Quote »
Confused about Halo 3: Recon? Apparently some folks still are, so Bungie reps Luke Smith and Brian Jarrard wanted to get a few things out of the way, right off the bat, in our lovely afternoon Q&A session. Halo 3: Recon is not a tactical squad based shooter. Halo 3: Recon is not Splinter Cell: Halo. Halo 3: Recon is not Brothers In Arms: Halo. And there's a very, very good chance you'll never, ever run into Master Chief.

He, and the rest of the familiar Halo cast, won't be popping up for cameos. They're busy "relaxing" on the Delta Halo, saving the world and stuff. So what is Halo 3: Recon?

Halo 3: Recon is a first-person shooter, one that's going to feel very much like a Halo game; if it ain't broke, don't fix it, basically. Instead of playing a super space marine, however, you'll play an Orbital Drop Shock Trooper (ODST), one who's not quite so burly or bad-***.

That means you'll have to pick and choose your battles a bit more carefully than one faceless Spartan would.

Recon is a standalone release, not part of a title update or downloadable content. It will come with new Achievements totaling 1000 Gamerscore and a new aesthetic. The single player campaign, in which your ODST will clean up a Covenant infested city in New Mombasa, will feature plenty of dark, nighttime play.

That said, Bungie says "We're not viewing this as a full game." How that affects Recon's pricing, however, is still to be decided.

Should gamers view it as Bungie's metaphorical Half-Life: Opposing Force, giving Halo fans an alternate look at the events of previous games or merely a contract obligating Guitar Hero: Rocks the 80s?

"I would think of it as our Frozen Throne," Luke Smith told us, pointing to Warcraft III's expansion as the best comparison.

Recon's multiplayer, however, is essentially Halo 3's multiplayer. That means saved films, four-player coop and the map editor Forge will work seamlessly with the expansion. But outside of a new bundle of maps, expect the proven same-old, same-old online play that currently satisfies some 900,000 unique Halo 3 players a day.

And now for the bad news: it appears that there are no plans for a Legendary-style Orbital Drop Shock Trooper helmet that one can trick out their cat with. Shame. What will our nation's retailers clog up their warehouses with, come Fall 2009?

Little brother showed me the trailer, looks kinda cool. I'm not really a Halo fan though.

It actually abates my natural acid reflux reaction when I look at an R35. Call me when they put a clutch in it and rip out 200 pounds of go-go-gadget gayness.
