Mythic Map Pack I guess

My guess is that it carries on from when Chief and Cortana drop onto the planet that they were floating past ... although it is a multiplayer expansion I believe

it just came out on marketplace and this is what the description says:

"High action and deep mystery await players in the new Halo 3 campaign experience. Prepare to drop!"

Yeah, I'd bet a fair amount of money on the Mythic Map Pack, seeing as some of the TU2 achievements are from the 'Mythic Map Pack'... can't wait, if this is a campaign expansion... I wish it was singleplayer though >:0

Gearbox.

It's probably DLC for Halo 3. I didn't think so until I saw the Halo 3 logo.

Halo: Chronicles (which Peter Jackson is heading) was what I thought it was going to be.

Kinda disappointed tbh, I expected a whole new game.

Oh wow..

Has ANYONE read the new achievements that came out on the 23rd? Mentions of 'MYTHIC MAP PACK' that isn't EVEN OUT YET

Tank Dropper
On any Mythic map, get a kill on another player while in monitor mode.

Zombie Repeller
On a Mythic map, kill 2 Zombies during any ranked or social match.

Delicious Brains
On a Mythic map, infect 2 humans during any ranked or social match.

etc etc

My money on Mythic Map Pack which apparently is a new campaign featuring USNC soldiers or summin

I saw that, but that seems just like a MP expansion.

It's good that they're continuously upgrading Halo 3 though. It's one of MS's best games, and it's got an incredibly large fanbase.

http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Halo_3:_Keep_It_Clean

The most popular rumor surrounding this new title is that it's a squad-based shooter in the Halo universe with the player filling the role of a Marine commander. This could be the reason why Christian Allen, a former Marine and Red Storm employee who worked on the Ghost Recon and Rainbow Six series, joined Bungie in early 2007.
Also:

* A teaser trailer for Keep It Clean was released at 07:07:07 am PST on September 25th, 2008, the one year anniversary of Halo 3. The trailer was viewed through the many security cameras around New Mombasa.
    * The final words "Prepare to Drop" may refer to the Helljumpers who use Human Entry Vehicles to drop to the surface. This may mean that the expansion may take place from the point of view of a Helljumper, not a SPARTAN-II.
    * When "Halo 3" is displayed in the font similar to Courier, by slowing down the video someone can see the words : "Activating sub-routine “Vergil". Warning, Data Leak on Level 9"

An RTS and a squad-based game...sweet.

Some people were saying this could be 'less cartoony' (if you want to call Halo 3 cartoony) and more gory and real... seems interesting because humans don't have shields like the Spartans and Elites

Well, if they're Helljumpers (which I remember from the books and they were ), then I'll agree.

Those pods dropping from the sky kinda do look like what the Helljumpers use for orbital insertion...so yeah there is a high possibility that the expansion/ or whatever, chronicles what the ODSTs did post Halo 2.

And if you noticed it, the city those pods were dropping into was the city featured in the first few levels of H2. And that big explosion was probably the Prophet of Regret's ship going into slip space iirc.

I hope so. I forgot which book had the Helljumpers - Fall of Reach, The Flood, First Strike, Ghosts of Onyx or Contact Harvest.

It's New Mombasa, Kenya. So yeah, it's the levels Halo 2 featured.
