Ok Ok, so I know I am a self confessed Bungie Bitch, but this is looking really cool.

Game Details
This new chapter in the Halo universe includes the following:
  • All-new campaign content: The Halo 3: Recon campaign is an intriguing side story that takes place during the terrifying events leading up to the Master Chief’s return to New Mombasa in Halo 3. Experience the fate of Earth from the brand-new perspective of a special forces ODST (Orbital Drop Shock Trooper), adding a unique outlook and new gameplay elements to the events that unfold in the trilogy’s finale. While the feel of this new chapter greatly resembles that of previous Halo experiences, Halo 3: Recon will require you to employ more elements of stealth and cunning than ever before.
  • Prepare to drop: Known for their courage, valor and, at times, insanity, ODSTs are among the fiercest UNSC soldiers, priding themselves on being the first unit deployed into hostile situations. While not as large or supernaturally gifted as their Spartan comrades, these "Hell Jumpers" more than compensate with their ferocious attitudes and unwavering nerve.
  • Expanded multiplayer collection:No Halo experience would be complete without groundbreaking multiplayer content, and Halo 3: Recon gives fans more of what they love. With exclusive new maps and expanded Forge options, Xbox LIVE® Gold members will find more multiplayer content than ever before with Halo 3: Recon.
  • Ever-growing community options: Enjoy all the great Halo 3 technological innovations, including Saved Films, screenshots, Campaign Scoring, and four-player co-op. All of the new multiplayer maps fully support the Forge editor, offering endless gameplay customization possibilities.
Sounds like the game, which is standalone, will ship with the Halo3 Maps as the MP side contains all the same H3 features.

Trailer Here.
 
Re: Halo 3: Recon

I'm really hoping it takes less bullets to both kill and be killed. I'm not talking one shot one kill like COD4, but something a little less arcadey would be preferred.

I got very tired of the constant having to pick enemies off one-by-one from distance with multiple headshots from the campaign in Halo 3. There better be some more powerful weapons that eliminate the necessary 6 zoomed in headshots to kill... that was beyond stupid.

Because I assume by the time we get to space combat, we've been able to make effective guns.

Overall, very excited for this.

What I meant was there's no online match making, sorry about that.

Although Firefight is friends only I am not too bothered as I prefer playing with friends in this kind of mode. When playing Horde on Gears 2 with matchmaking sometimes you get players who dont wanna work as a team and go on the 'I can take on the world on my own' style and that is just annoying!
 
I think this is one of the worst game I have ever played. Can't believe the reviews. This is so boring and funless.
It gets better during the last levels when you control vehicles but the rest is depressing. You explore huge areas, kill 2 midgets, move 300m, kill 2 midgets and then a huge number of ennemies. Always the same. I did it on legendary with a friend, but if not for him I think I would have destroyed the dvd.
