A lot of people are quick to jump on the dlc bandwagon with this. But you know, it seems like this would be too big for this. Bungie has stated that this title has been in development alongside Halo 3. So you know, this is going to be just as big as it.

I understand hermits, yes, expansions can be just as big as the game. However, all the expansions I have ever played never were truly radically different from the main game. They tended to just be more of the same stuff. And really, they don't take longer than the initial game to develop, more of a short development period thing.

So it's obvious that this is not just more levels. It also appears that you're something like a ODST trooper during Halo 2- definately before Halo 3, but somewhere between them all- could be between the end of 1 through the beggining of 3, I dunno.

Yes, that sounds like a completely new game from an alternative view, basically. But it did say Halo 3 dinstinctly in the trailer. But there's one thing you guys are forgetting- so what? You guys honestly haven't heard of standalone games that are the same game but completely new almost? Yes, that was phrased horribly but still. Haven't you guys ever heard of Half Life: Opposing Force or Half Life: Blue Shift? Same idea in a way, although I bet this will have a completely different play style than halo.

For those of you who say it's a DLC extra levels thing: Why exactly would they bother creating a whole new set of gameplay and whatnot and release it as dlc to a game that utilizes different elements? Does it even make sense?

I sure hope you're right

I'd like to see a whole new chapter in Halo3. a stand-alone one.

Expansion.

But it don't think it'll be like Opposing Force/

I reckon its going to focus on co-op play, and it wont be from an opposing perspective.

Im acually certin we will play as ODSTs..... Why??

Theres no indication of any other characters in the trailer other than them! and it looks like New Mombasa so it sounds like a prequel?

Who knows though, we will just have to wait.
