Halo 3 Planet

Bungie finally gives us the full scoop on the brand new Halo 3 Map Pack (deemed the “Heroic Map Pack” going on sale December 11th for 800 [tag]Microsoft[/tag] Points).  This time, they’ve got some pictures of the maps to share.

Standoff

According to the folks over at Bungie, you can think of this new outdoor map as “Blood Gulch, except squished together, with 4000 foot satellite dishes.“  Are we excited about this so-called third installment of the Gulch?  More than ever.

Rat’s Nest

Rat’s Nest appears to take on the appearance of Crow’s Nest from Halo 3’s Campaign mode.  According to Bungie, it will be a great addition to matchmaking for Big Team Battle players.

Foundry

Foundry has been called “The Forge Level”, as it will be completely customizable to players using Forge… even more so than the levels shipped with the game.  It sounds like it can essentially just become an “Open Space” by deleting everything in Forge.  The possibilities are endless!

More photos of the new [tag]Halo 3[/tag] Maps will be released shortly after Thanksgiving Day according to Bungie.   They’ve also done a really great Q & A in their news post, which is definitely worth a quick glance.
