OXCGN: Halo 3 Mythic Map Pack Hands-on Impressions

OXCGN Writes:

"All in all I would say that the Mythic Map Pack is well worth a purchase. The variety offered here is three fold and each map fills a spot in the Halo 3 library. Production and design values are all through the roof and as with every Bungie production they are just simply fun. Skulls and Forge aside the maps play well but with those added bonuses it makes the pack too good to pass up."

I don't know what I'm more excited about, Halo Wars or getting these Maps :)

GrathiusXR5906d ago

As much as people dislike Halo 3 for what ever reasons they hold there is no denying that bungie have shown great support for one of their best titles ever..

The fact that they are still updating the playlists as well as bringing out another Map Pack is just phenomenal...

Regardless of what quarrel you have with Halo 3 it has shown everyone that with a little support it can do great things..

Glad to see that with the new map pack is substance and effort put into it to make it worth while.

Good job Bungie!

Dimorphic_5906d ago

The maps really are fantastic, and while some people do have their issues with Halo 3 (which I don't understand) the majority of gamers on the 360 do play it and these maps just ensure that they will continue to play it.

Other than Burnout Paradise I can't think of a game that has as much dev support so far out from its launch.

Superfragilistic5906d ago

I get why people don't get Halo 3. But its only their loss and our gain. The community efforts of Bungie are truly extroadinary and anyone who's played Halo but hasn't used/played Forge is missing half the multiplayer pie!

Mmmmmmm yum.

darkmurder5906d ago

Could be enough to get me back into Halo!

GrathiusXR5906d ago

Sure could mate.. I mean c'mon more maps = more fun and crazy stuff to make in Forge.. it offers an endless amount of good times!!!

Dimorphic_5906d ago

It should be Dark, these maps are fantastic, they each fill a niche that Halo has been needing and Sandbox is going to spawn some of the best custom maps ever.

Can't wait! :D

Infinite is a dumpster fire and as much as I like ODST, in no universe it ranks above Halo 2. This list is trash.

Kaii470d ago

Just exclude Infinite>5>4

ChasterMies470d ago

Best to worst: Halo 3, Halo 2, Halo Reach, Halo CE, Halo 4, Halo ODST, Halo Infinite, Halo 5.

The 7 Best Xbox 360 Games - Console Exclusives Win the Day

The Xbox 360 was a fantastic console in its day with some truly classic titles, but what are the seven best games for the console?

DrDoomer507d ago

I'm pretty used to these lists being bad, but this one is particularly s#ite.

raWfodog507d ago

I think Lost Odyssey and Blue Dragon should have been added to the list.

BrainSyphoned507d ago

I'll go with,
Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, Culdcept Saga, Shadow Complex, Ace Combat 6 with the flight stick,A Kingdom for Keflings, A World of Keflings.
Bonus Kinect Games: Happy Action Theater and Sesame Street.
*Skyrim was so bad on PS3 that it almost deserves to be #1*

Husker42c507d ago

I really loved Shadow Complex.

P_Bomb507d ago

Ah yes, Shadow Complex! Good indies back in the day. Summer of Arcade. I enjoyed Trials Evolution as well.

ChasterMies507d ago (Edited 507d ago )

Was this made by a.i.? No human being would put Shadowrun, Fable III, and Splinter Cell: Conviction into a list of the 7 best Xbox 360 games.

Abnor_Mal507d ago (Edited 507d ago )

Would love to play Ace Combat6 on PlayStation, but Xbox decided to buy exclusivity and keep it off a competing platform.

The only mainline game I never played except for one level at a friends place. Game sold less than any other in the series if I remember correctly.

darthv72506d ago

360 had Namco hitters AC6 and RR6... both quality titles. You should at least bust out the 360 for AC6 if you can score the flight stick. Its great.

Hofstaderman507d ago

When the current gen XBOX offering is so lacking people need to refer to games released two generations back....

Profchaos506d ago (Edited 506d ago )

It's a nostalgia peice same reason we get thousands of YouTube videos on sega genisis. Something people have fond memories for but the era is long gone.

It's xboxs golden year imo it was their genisis years the time where they stuck it to the market leaders Sony.

BehindTheRows506d ago

They stuck nothing. Sony screwed themselves giving Xbox an opening. They would have gotten the usual smack down if the PS3 had launched at $399 and was easier to develop for.
