Halo 3 Mythic Map Pack Review

The Mythic Map Pack for Halo 3 is set to debut on Xbox Live Thursday for 800 points, but we at GPU wanted to give you all a bit of a preview of the maps before putting down the $10. Containing Assembly, Sandbox, and Orbital the Mythic Pack may be one of the most diverse and best looking set of maps to date. Having bought Halo Wars LE I have had the opportunity to play these maps for a few weeks now and can tell you that Halo fans will not be disappointed. The Mythic pack fills a void in the map selection by adding these three very diverse maps. Below you can see an image of each map as well as a mini review of the overall feel and gameplay, along with what gametypes fit best. Hit the jump for our complete impressions and check out Bungie’s new Mythic Map Pack trailer.

Clear your hard drive space, there is a lot of DLC coming via the 360 in the next month. Microsoft has detailed the DLC line-up for the coming month and it features many of this and last year’s top games. If only the Xbox hard drives were priced well enough to buy a bigger one… One can wish right?

The fun starts tomorrow with the Fallout 3 DLC entitled “The Pitt.” The Pitt takes players to former Pittsburgh and a slave labor camp, the pack will be 800 MSP. Following the Fallout 3 DLC is the Gears of War 2 Snowblind Map pack for 800 points. The Snowblind pack contains “Grindyard, Under Hill, Courtyard, and a frozen version of the “Gears of War” favorite, Fuel depot.” Next up is the Halo 3 Mythic Map Pack. Currently only playable to those with the Halo Wars special edition (or those who have won codes), the Mythic pack contains Sandbox, Orbital, and Assembly and will be out April 9th for 800 points. Finally, on April 21st, the Left 4 Dead Survival Pack will debut and is as of now, un-priced.

That is a ton of content coming to your hard drive exclusively on the 360 (and PC) in the coming month, be prepared with many points and some free time.
