that's what £7 for 3 extra maps? they are having a laugh.

Well I think if you are an avid Halo player then the price is worth it because you know you are going to get hours and hours of enjoyment out of the maps. I mean you can't even get into a movie for 7 quid these days and thats a whole 2 hours of entertainment.

On the other hand if you are busy playing other stuff or don't play halo regularly then it would probably just be best to wait till they are free. At least they will be free in the spring.

I got to see them at my mates house on his 360 this afternoon. Unfortunately my 360 is in a UPS box ready to be picked up tomorrow

EDIT: @Josh Bungie said they would be adding a new playlist which only used the new maps - I dont think its been introduced yet though? They might be having a few probs - they usually are

LOL £7 for 3 maps. I already feel cheated enough as it is having payed £40 for this over-rated piece of ****. I'm not going to pay any more.

Quite honestly nobody cares what you think and I for one am sick of you posting in every damn thread about Halo about how much you hate it. We all got it the first time you posted no need to keep banging on about it like a broken record.

God I swear its like MC/Bungie has nailed your whole family or something because you really do have some sort of obsession about the game even though you hate it so much.

Is there a filter just to play the bought maps? Im sure there used to be on halo 2 when you bought the new maps?

Josh

It will be a seperate Matchmaking playlist at the start and they will also be included into others aswell such as Team Slayer etc and you will be matched up to others who have the maps, but if one or more people in the party dont have the map another one will be chosen.

Its 480 odd megabyte.

Seems a bit much to me, unless if they're adding extra content like models etc?

Also it's a but much at that price but i suppose its good there are people around who give them a reason to produce the content that eventually becomes free for everyone else.

Man cannons hahaha

Total rip. Samething will happen like with the GOW maps, free probably around March. The current maps are fine anyway and I only seem to do the same rotation of Pit-Narrows-High Ground-Snowbound in no particular order.

Logsi · 11 Dec 2007 at 19:57

Dont need to I've said my piece

I dont mind if someone is asking for opinions on whether to buy the game or not but is it really necessary to go into every other threads about it (such as game arranging, discussion threads) and **** it off every chance you get?

RoachycaL · 11 Dec 2007 at 20:31

Theres also a "soccer ball" in forge on foundry

Dunno if many people know but they added them because they had a hidden one on the campaign level Metropolis on Halo 2. Im annoyed that I cant play

Hurumpf. Suppose I'll buy them before the LAN purely for the rocket races.

Rocket races on these maps?

I suppose Standoff - other two would be tedious as hell though?
