Why Robin Makes Batman Better Halo 3 fans now have three new places to kill each other, as the long-awaited Mythic Map Pack makes its way onto the Xbox Live Marketplace.
Bungie teases, but Microsoft comes right out and says it. The Halo 3 Mythic Map Pack is officially coming out on Thursday, April 9th.
Is it the Halo 3 Mythic Map Pack release date? Bungie’s latest update ends with “PS: 04/09/09.” Last week, notes sharp-eyed reader Crono51, the studio hinted the release date was coming “Soon™. Maybe next week.”
Bungie was plundered of all its Mythic Map Pack early release codes in about a nanosecond this past week. That hasn’t stopped the hopeful delusional from believing more can be found.
Microsoft Game Studios and Ensemble Studios are on course to ship their strategy take on the Halo universe this February, and they’re readying one hell of a Limited Collector’s Edition for those willing to drop a little extra coin. $US79.99 gets you the game, six leader cards, a Spirit of Fire patch, a Halo Wars: Genesis graphic novel, and the Halo 3 Mythic Map Pack, which comes with “Assembly,” “Orbital” and “Sandbox”. One hell of a way to ensure your core audience stays intact in the face of wildly shifting genres, isn’t it?
