Master Chief
As I keep up with news about Halo 3: ODST I’m impressed with how liberal Bungie has been about releasing news of their upcoming shooter. Their latest site update has released even more news, mostly about what enemies will be in the game.
The latest piece of information, and what will be a disappointment to some is that no Elite will be making their presence in ODST. Instead, according to Bungie we’ll mostly be taking on the Brutes.
Some other cool info that Bungie decided to be let known, is the timeline of this game and how it compares with what was happening to Master Chief.
* October 20: New Mombasa, Kenya is destroyed by the Slipstream Space Rupture Backlash from the Prophet of Regret’s ship.
* November 2: The Prophet of Regret’s ship and In Amber Clad arrive at Delta Halo. Prophet of Regret liquidated by SPARTAN-117.
* November 3: Prophet of Truth leaves High Charity for Earth in Forerunner dreadnought.
* November 8: The Forerunner dreadnought arrives in the Sol system and proceeds to Earth at near relativistic speed.
* November 17: The Forerunner dreadnought arrives at Earth. SPARTAN-117 ejects and lands in the Kenyan jungle.

Master Chief
I know you’ve done nothing but think about it, dream about it, and lust after it. Of course I’m talking about Recon armor. The Holy Grail of items in the world of Halo. People have begged and pleaded for Bungie to give it to them. Of course, in stellar Bungie fashion they keep saying you have to earn it.
In a issue of Game Informer, Bungie was interviewed about their highly anticipated, but still far off game Halo 3: Recon. There were the obvious questions about progress, and release dates. There was one question that really stood out in the interview. For those who are continually trying to impress Bungie enough to give you recon armor, you’ll want to read this.
Everyone gets Recon armor for multiplayer!?
“Yes, sort of. We did confirm that when Halo 3: Recon is released next Fall, fans will finally have the means to acquire the Recon multiplayer armor for themselves. The “Vidmaster” achievements that were kicked off in the Halo 3 title update a few months ago are the first step on the road to unlocking Recon. Eventually, once you have successfully completed all of the Vidmaster achievements, you will be able to wear the armor. Some of these achievements can be earned when the Mythic Map Pack is released early next year, but you won’t be able to complete the full chain until the retail release of Halo 3: Recon next Fall. So yes, approximately two years after the release of Halo 3, the broader community will finally be able to get their hands on the Recon armor.”
