    If wonder if the Halo 3 expansion will be Hard-Drive exclusive. I remember when I first bought my Arcade 360 and saw the "Optimized for Hard-Drive" note on the back of the game. :lol:

    Understatement of the decade. First no online co-op, then they took away game types that were originally available to everyone instead of adding new one for new maps, and now they might actually be adding some decent plot into the single player campaign. (Yes, I'm still a bit bitter. Sorry. :P)

    Yeah. I expected that if they wanted to show it at E3 that it'd be out by Spring at the latest.

    Bah.

    I would say that they wouldn't want Halo Wars to go up against the other new Halo game, but I doubt they give much of a shit about Halo War.

    Way excited about Space Invaders Extreme coming out for the 360. I think I'll sell my DS copy in anticipation (would rather have it on the big screen and with online leaderboards than portable). Also way excited about the new Metal Slug game hitting XBLA.

    Uh, Halo 3 has online co-op. And nearly every 360 game is 'hard drive optimized', doesn't mean anything (and doesn't affect Halo 3 play at all).

    The only gametype we lost was Neutral Flag and 4 Bomb/4 Flag.

    I'm curious how much these will go for. Space Invaders Extreme I can see staying at $20, but Metal Slug 7 is going to retail for $30.

    I could see SIE being 800 points

    It's been a while, maybe they'll look at the XBLA release as entering the library section of a movie rental shop?

    The stand-alone expansion
    While the feel of this new chapter greatly resembles that of previous Halo experiences, Halo 3: Recon will require you to employ more elements of stealth and cunning than ever before.
    Expanded multiplayer collection:No Halo experience would be complete without groundbreaking multiplayer content, and Halo 3: Recon gives fans more of what they love. With exclusive new maps and expanded Forge options, Xbox LIVE® Gold members will find more multiplayer content than ever before with Halo 3: Recon.

    Hmm

    Im waiting to see the video, but am underwhelmed by the idea. I was hoping they were going to introduce more squad tactics and such. It really doesn't seem like they learned much from CoD4 either, so that not exactly getting me pumped.

    I give it a 50-50 chance that the stealth will be completely optional or pointless.
