Lockout + Sidewinder return to me!!!!
I'm excited about the 'Western'/'Oldies' visual effect.

Its amazing how the "Gears of War Theme (Love Bungies sense of humor) Actually makes the game look better. But as depressing as hell. Now we know how Epic did it.

@Agies: I don't believe so, I think they're just restricted to Forge maps.

Always amusing to watch Bungie's vidocs.

I love it. They somehow made me extremely excited to part ways with my $10.

Those filters are just neato. Anyone know if they are restricted to the new maps only?

Bungie is great. I can never get enough of the love-hate-fear-mocking relationship they have with their fans.

These maps are full of epic win. First story about Halo on Kotaku in a few weeks that wasn't completely decimated by haters before somebody said "hay guise!, I think thats cool"

When I heard the Manos theme I had to go check if somebody had MST on in the other room. Best nerd ringtone evar!

All in all I'm pretty excited about these maps. Although two of them are remakes I think theres enough new stuff in the sandbox to make all seem new again.

Cheers Bungie, thanx for the newness.

Aw damn!

The ringtone for his cell phone was the theme from "Manos: the hands of fate"!

I guess there are some MSTies working at bungie =D

@haihn7: That's a staff-only option. Only Bungie employees get the flaming helmet OF DEATH.*

*Does not actually improve gameplay; player will still suck as much as he or she would without a giant glowing indicator of exactly where he or she is.

@haihn7: Supposedly, it's a chest plate that gives the helmet the fire effect.

How come his helmet is on fire??? Is it something you can do or it's exclusive to the developer?

Wow, now I'm even more excited for these maps after seeing that! April is turning out to be one hell of a month for me; CoD4 & Halo map packs, GTA4, and Mario Kart. I've said it before and I'll say it again: why does all this sweet shit come out right before finals?!

Wow, that was great. It was like RvB meets Vidoc. I wonder if the Rooster Teeth guys did the video. The new maps look fantastic, can't wait till tuesday.

@Dunny0: Seriously, that's the best ringtone I've ever heard. Manos!

From a design standpoint, Blackout seems exactly like a Phantom Dust multiplayer map.

Aaargh, I hate it when devs make a game I don't actually care all that much for seem really exciting and cool. I'll get online all giddy, and come crashing down a few matches later...

A shame really, I love all the online options with Halo, and I WANT to like it, just something about the aiming ticks me off.
It like too rigid or something. (my epic suckage at Halo miiight have a little to do with it, though not that much)

Love the Gears of War Filter comment. But it does make it look a bit more GoWish though, so hey, I guess its not all bad.

freakout — Wed, 09 Apr 2008 19:05:50 MDT

Of the three, I thought Ghost Town was by far the most visually appealing. Avalanche and Blackout looked cool, but a little bit lifeless. Still can't wait for April 15. :D

Best Vidoc yet! Great looking maps too. If you like the old games, Sidewinder and Lockout are the best of the best so I'm happy to see them remade.

Very nice Vidoc, makes me excited for the maps. A couple weeks of cod4 maps, a couple weeks of halo 3 maps, and then GTA. April's a good month.

Witzbold — Wed, 09 Apr 2008 18:12:20 MDT

Yeah I can kinda see why they put a limit with certian items now that I think about it.

Imagine what might happen if you had like a full game with everyone using flamethrowers in the same area and such.

ruba-dub-dub — Wed, 09 Apr 2008 18:10:04 MDT

wowwy, Ghost Town actually looks as good, if not better than a CoD map! might pick these up (and Halo 3 again.)

kojirodensetsu — Wed, 09 Apr 2008 18:09:24 MDT

Btw there's an infinite budget glitch (although you still have the item constraints, so you can't put like 20 flamethrowers on the map)...

Anyways the map pack looks awesome.

exkon — Wed, 09 Apr 2008 18:07:00 MDT

@Akmed: Forge had a budget because you can only fit so much stuff on map. The engine can only render so much before it starts to chug.

I love how they did this vidoc!!! Please let more come in this style!

even though i don't have Halo 3, let alone an xbox, this looks like it's worth the DL for those who love the game. nice maps and features.

filter option is really cool.

also, why does forge have a "budget" anyway?
