Bungie, masters of titillation and chicken baiting, are at it again. This time letting their many fervent fans know that Halo 3: Recon is getting a new name, but spilling little else.

As of today, they say, Halo 3: Recon will now be known as Halo 3: ODST. I suppose that’s because Odie Estie rolls off the tongue much easier than Reee-KHAN! It’s also because the ODST, an acronym for Oribtal Drop Shock Trooper, is the central character of the upcoming title.
