Yeah, now that I think about it the disc is probably the better idea. Also, if you didn't catch it. The on-sale maps won't be part of matchmaking until they are all free. Oh well. Sanctuary and Containment look un-freaking-believeable!!!!!!!!!!!! Turf looks awesome, too. Warlock doesn't seem to interesting to me though. Oh well, can't wait. Won't be able to pull myself away! Good thing I'm graduating soon.

Are you kidding about Warlock? Go pop in Wizard from the first Halo, and play that...Now imagine a prettier version of that, with some slight tweaks...Awesome!
I wonder if any of the other five maps will be remakes of Halo: CE maps?

I CAN'T FREAKING WAIT! I hope they reset everyone's stats with the update too...So we can all be even again, and cheaters will have to actually play with skill, rather than their weasily ways.

I played some Big Team Battle this morning, and I really can't wait for the new maps...Containment reminds me a lot of Sidewinder, and some of the larger maps in the PC version of the original Halo...And those were a blast.
Also, did you guys notice those large shaped thinga-ma-bobs laying on the ground in Containment? Those are HUGE explosive cores. According to Frankie, they do a lot more damage than the old ones...Wonder if one could take out a Ghost?

Yeah i wondered what those were, I thought they were machine gun nests or something. I wonder if you can move them? Turf looks awesome! Time for some urban warfare Halo style. Oh June you cant come soon enough.

Bungie played Japan's number one Halo 2 clan for their latest Humpday Challenge...This is how they played... It's strategies like this, that make Halo 2 insanely frustrating at times. Even Bungie called it "horrible". Screw of PP/BR Combo'ers!

I still have my winning streak, although I only played the game yesterday for the first time in over a week, so that's not saying much.

Hmm, I wonder how much of that is April Fools. Especially the part about easter eggs and a tenth map to be released And me and JB do the double combo thing very often. I get two PP and he gets a battle rifle in Colossus and I shoot two guys and he gets the headshot hehe.

Oh dear Lord...I first heard that side-crolling news from Reirom...A very unreliable source.
Anyway, I think everything posted on Bungie.Net yesterday was an April Fool's Joke, besides saying that Elongation is a remake of Longest...Anything else, is just too wacky to be true.
