    Revealed in the latest issue of US magazine Game Informer, players take control of The Rookie, a faceless, voiceless Orbital Drock Shock Trooper part of a five-man team rocketed into Ground Zero of Earth city New Mombasa, during the events of Halo 2.
    Also revealed is that you won't have shields in the game (you are, now, just a man).

    This is bullshit. Why the hell wouldn't you have shields? They're obviously going to keep shields. This is either a lie or....well this is a lie. No shields = no fun.

    EDIT: Actually wait. I think I heard about something that had to do with no shields. Maybe that's true. Sorry.

    IT would have been, but Bungie can hardly keep up with Halo 3's multiplayer and correcting issues with it. Imagine if they had different multiplayer for each game. It would just be a Bungie Armageddon.

    Its an extension of the current Halo 3 multiplayer. Halo 3 Recon basically comes with new Halo 3 maps.

    My guess is that they'll install the maps onto your hard drive. So you'll still need your Halo 3 disk to play online.

    No. Halo 3 multiplayer can be played on Halo 3 Recon with those who only have Halo 3.

    I guess you could say it's Microsoft giving Bungie a nice goodbye gift by allowing them to do this small project before they are entirely out of the scene.

    I disagree. Halo 3 Recon is gonna be able to play normal multiplayer like Halo 3.

    Orange is right. Silence, in his epicness, is for once, incorrect.
    If you shall give me 5 minutes, your lord, I shall find the Bungie.net quote.

    No, no. Bungie actually mentioned that you will be able to keep the Halo 3: Recon disc in while playing multiplayer with those who are using the Halo 3 disc because they would both be a part of the Halo 3 title family or some **** like that.

    EDIT: What the above guy said.
