maps

Bungie previewed an unreleased Halo 3 map in San Diego this weekend at an MLG event. It's named Cold Storage and is a remake of Chill Out from Halo 3.

This will certainly get the attention of old school Halo fanboys who have long been crying out for smaller slayer maps. Chill Out is certainly a good pick.

What other classic Halo maps would you like to see in Halo 3?

Some YouTube shakey cam footage of gameplay on Cold Storage:

It's out. The new downable content for Halo 3 costs 800 MS points and comes with 3 new maps, a legendary theme, and gamerpic.

The Legendary Map Pack blends old and new. Ghost Town’s asymmetrical mix of confined spaces and long lines of fire makes for frenetic games. Avalanche re-imagines the original Halo classic, Sidewinder, with new features, tweaked vehicles and massive outdoor spaces. Significant changes bring big improvements to the map, yet its contours and cliffs should provide a welcome sense of familiarity. Blackout, on the other hand, is the purest remake to date – all time favorite Lockout gets a graphical overhaul, but retains its challenging mix of ramps, platforms, tunnels and hallways. There are no refunds for this item.
