Here now is the official Halo 3 Recon announcement trailer, fresh from TGS. The video builds on Bungie's original teaser, offering a few glimpses of the game's reconnoitering premise.

The prequel is slated for a fall 2009 release, bringing a new Halo 3 campaign and an unspecified number of multiplayer maps. It is unknown whether Halo 3 Recon will be a standalone expansion, downloadable content, or both.

Maybe this will finally add a GOD-DAMNED final boss!

What a worthless game; GoW was 100 times the game than this piece of trash.

I wonder if the soldier dude will have the same floaty movement, or if he will be grounded to the floor like every other shooter out there. The only thing I never liked about halo was the floatiness to it all

It's a nice touch with the city AI going through it's numbers like in the Halo Lore and then helping out the lone ODST at the end.

This looks like it'll be pretty good dive into the other parts of Halo sans the Chief.

This looks like it will be a great game for me. I think the Halo games always excelled when you have to play tactically against the "smart" opponents. Fighting the flood always turned me off, as it seemed to be just a chore without the fun. Here's hoping that they leave it out of this one.

Very excited -- cool premise...just being something other than master chief (or the stupid arbiter) will be fun.
