Halo 3: Recon Will Be Standalone DVD Release
by Chris Faylor, Oct 09, 2008 7:16am PDT
Expanding upon last night's official announcement and trailer of Halo 3: Recon (360), publisher Microsoft has confirmed that the Bungie-developed expansion will be a standalone DVD release that does not require the Halo 3 (360) to play.
Set prior to the events of Halo 3, Recon follows the exploits of a ODST drop soldier, which Microsoft claims will "greatly resemble that of previous Halo experiences" but "will require players to employ more elements of stealth and cunning than ever before."
Packing exclusive new multiplayer maps, the title will sport all of Halo 3's community features, including four-player co-op, the Forge map editor, and Saved Films.
Halo 3: Recon is currently scheduled for a fall 2009 release.

did they bother to LOOK at sales of "stealth and cunning" games versus "run and gun and mayhem" games? i think those numbers should've made it a little clear to them what gamers actually want.
clearance bin at best for me now.

It's clear to me that Bungie played COD 4, said "holy shit!" and went back to the drawing board. Something they have pointed to themselves. This game is going to rock.
Thank you COD 4
