Bungie Weekly Update: more Halo 3 DLC info, “can I has recon?” video

Can’t wait for the release of the new downloadable maps in store for Bungie’s Halo 3? If so, then better chew on this juicy bit of news for the meantime, and watch a hilarious fan-made “can I has recon?” video. The details and video in the full article!

Those who are still twiddling thumbs while waiting for the release of new downloadable Halo 3 content courtesy of Bungie Studios can chew on these new bits of information. Remember the new maps, Purple Reign and O.K. Corral from the previous updates? A bunch of new details are revealed about these awesome maps, such as Purple Reign being a perfect map for battling over high ground control. Purple Reign also features several chances and ways to get on top, such as ramps and jumps.

As for O.K. Corral, this map has several sniping spots, but other than that O.K. Corral is about having to master the entire route in order to gain the upper hand. The map is designed in such a way that even if you can see your opponents in your radar, you still have to determine whether they’re hidden above you, or otherwise. The strange geometry of the map also allows for strange angles that will let you spy on your opponents but not get a good sniping angle.

And that’s it for the upcoming downloadable maps. However, that’s not all there is to in in this Bungie update. Bungie also featured their “hated” video created by Digital Pheer, titled Arby and the Chief. It’s a fun video about Recon, but you have to take note that its filled with both lolcat and explicit language. If you can take it, click on the Play button for the video below to get your Halo-related lulz.
