Alright HaloMega readers. Today marks the event that a large amount of you have been waiting for. Dragonball movie release? No, today the Mythic Map Pack will be released to the public.
For those who have already gotten their map pack, just sit quietly and enjoy the awesomeness you’ve obtained. For those who’ve been waiting patiently, Bungie has a couple of surprises in store for you today.
First, Bungie will be giving out Bungie Pro subscriptions for free. They will last until July. If you’re unfamiliar with Bungie Pro, it’s basically a service where you get 24 save slots for your custom creations.
There have been some interesting creations already, and if you’re interested take a peek at the ones below:
Flying Dutchman
Excavation
Pivotal

For those eagerly awaiting any sliver of news about Halo 3: ODST, you’ll continue to wait. Unfortunately, nothing was released this past week in Bungie’s update. So, we still have Fall 2009 for a release window.
Things are looking up though, because in Bungie’s update they mention that the progammers are taking bets when the release date could be. You got to think that if they’re placing hard earned money on the table, then some idea of a date is floating around in someone’s mind. Unfortunately, we just don’t know what it is yet.
Some other things mentioned in the update were the Wasteland map in the Mythic Map Pack. If you were one of those who already have the map pack then you can skip this. If you’re unfamiliar with Wasteland, then go back and play Sandbox. Basically, it’s a modified version of Sandbox. In Wastelands you have a large sprawling Slayer, or Team Slayer type map. It’s vehicle based map as well, but if you’re a sniper you can find good spots as well.

For those enjoying their copy of the Mythic Map Pack, congratulations. For those who are still in wait, Bungie has announced one of their variants of Sandbox called Spooky House. It sounds like a cool map that could provide very interesting scenarions. Especially for offensive minded players.
Spooky House is a vertically style stage, that has many defensive vantage points. The builder of the map states that the custom stage was built for the Zombie game type. Although, King of the Hill could perhaps be another option that could be used.
The stage was built on the Sky Bubble portion of the map. The reason is that the builder wants the players to stay in the house. On any other part of Sandbox, the players could leave, which would have ruined the fun of Spooky House.
