Halo 3 Planet

Here at H3P we focus typically on the stories themselves, and not the admins posting them. Myself (Adam) and David (the webmaster) have been bringing you stories about Halo for over a year, and as of last night, I’m also bringing achievement tutorial videos to AchievementHunter.com, a site dedicated to showing users how to get achievements in games on the XBox 360, as well as other platforms that are now starting to support achievement-like goals. Achievement Hunter also happens to have a special tie to Halo, as it is a Rooster Teeth project.

You may recall that Rooster Teeth invented Halo machinima with it’s outrageously funny series Red vs Blue. Over the past 6 years they have entertained us with machinima from Halo, The Sims, Shadowrun, FEAR, and released a teaser for a new Red vs Blue animated series at PAX this year.

In order to gain this spot at Achievement Hunter I had to win a competition that involved myself and 39 other entrants sending in demo videos, with the promise of a spot as a Hunter and a Blackmagic Intensity capture card, the same fantastic card that Rooster Teeth uses for all of their fantastic videos.

What this means for H3P is that I’ll be updating the front page weekly with new Achievement Hunter and Rooster Teeth news, as well as the usual digest of interesting Halo 3 news and announcements.

Here’s the original story in it’s entirety. I’m known as LBCountry on Rooster Teeth if you want to drop me a line there.

Just announced at Tokyo Game Show 2008: Halo 3 Recon (Previously “Halo 3: Keep it Clean”) will be released in Fall 2009, featuring a new protagonist, a ODST marine.

Halo 3: Recon is a prologue to Halo 3 that goes through major events leading up the Halo 3 from an entirely new perspective.

Halo 3 Recon Video

Video of the Halo 3 Recon is now available on Bungie.net.

The video continues where the previous teaser left off, showing the drop pod crash through a building, where an ODST later emergest. The trooper is alone, and in a hostile environment with covenant ships and brutes scouting for survivors.

We see our new hero head off, as Halo 3 Recon takes the screen.

New Hero.

New Campaign.

Prepare to Drop Fall 2009.
