Bungie reaffirms expansion pack

Bungie has categorically denied that Halo 3: Recon is a full game, re-confirming that the freshly announced expansion pack is just that – an expansion pack.

Microsoft announced Halo 3: Recon during its keynote speech at the Tokyo Game Show yesterday, clearly referring to it as an expansion pack.

There was some confusion about this though, after it emerged that Recon would in fact be released as a stand-alone product on a DVD, and that it would feature a full 1000 gamer points – just like you’d expect from a full release.

Speaking to Kotaku though, Bungie reps Luke Smith and Brian Jarrard dismissed such suggestions, saying “we're not viewing this as a full game.”

"I would think of it as our Frozen Throne," Smith added, in reference to Warcraft III’s popular expansion pack.

As reported yesterday, Recon’s single-player mode is set to differ substantially from Halo 3, with players assuming the role of an ODST drop trooper instead of the Chief.

According to Bungie, this will mean players will need to be more cautious when in battle with The Covenant, with most of the battles taking place at night.

The multiplayer mode will be essentially be the same as Halo 3’s, albeit with a few new maps.

sounds good, i didnt think it was a halo 4 like many people were saying.

i predict this may be the highest selling expansion pack ever on consoles.

i also belive that halo 3 will be made akin to a game of the year edition, in the same vain as oblivion goty edition where you get the main game plus an expansion dvd that you install.

i think total halo 3 sales could reach 10million

this is bungies last halo chuck, i think they will make it special
