Oh, you’re not done with Halo 3 just yet. Bungie just officially announced Halo 3: Recon, which will be a new singleplayer expansion for the game.
Now, as everyone knows, the campaign was easily the worst part of Halo 3. It was just so utterly average and boring that even a 4-player co-op mode couldn’t bring people back to it. The multiplayer, of course, is a completely different story- but can Recon bring people back for another go?
As you can see, it is doing some interesting things. Recon will actually be a prequel to Halo 3, and for the first time in the series you won’t be playing as Master Chief. Will this make for a new way of playing (no shield? super strength?) or just be cosmetic? We’ll find out before it hits (either as a new disc or DLC) next Fall.
Wait, what? Yeah, it’s coming out in Fall 2009. Will Halo fans wait a whole year for more goodness? You know they will. More as we hear it.

Uh… I liked the campaign.
Count me among the fans of the campaign mode, as well. I thought H3 had a lot of great levels, with a lot of replayability.
I enjoyed the campaign as well . . . .
I too enjoyed the campaign – coulda' been longer though. The multiplayer actually bored me a little.
Yeah, I too liked the campaign. I don't know what your boggle is. It's not like it was the second coming or anything, but it was really decent for its genre. *shrugs* But hey, there are some people I know who have never played the campaign at all. They just buy the games for the multiplayer.
If you liked the campaign then you have no taste in video games. There, I said it.
Yeah, I have a few friends whose achievements reflect that as well. But c'mon guys, you have to admit that in comparison to Halo 1 or 2, it doesn't hold up. Hell, neither of the last two had a moment half as exciting as the Warthog escape from the first.
Uh. You play as the arbiter in Halo 2. You know, the last game in the series?
Trailer was actually really cool. I loved how the signs pointed the marine in the right direction. Hopefully they will put stuff like that in the game.
JCassady is an opinionated douche. There, I said it.
Halo 3's campaign eclipses the multiplayer, easily. The multiplayer maps in 3 pale in comparison to those in 2, and thus, the game sits on my shelf while I play "Spectral Force 3" and "silent Hill Homecoming".
With saints row 2 out on the nets, I must report it is indeed a kickass gta clone that is a ton of fun. The number of side activites to do is fucking unbelievable. Physics and graphics aren't up to par with GTA IV but shit the game is just fun to play. btw Fall out 3 leaked yesterday…….
