As of yesterday, Halo 3 fans can, for $10, download a 3 pack of new multiplayer maps. These maps are named "Rat's Nest", "Standoff", and "Foundry". Of these, Foundry is touted to be the most customizable map ever. Man Cannons, crates, you name it. If you want to create it, in Foundry, you can.

The maps will be made free to all after the release of the next map pack, due out sometime in spring of 08. Now, if you'll excuse me, I've got to go burn $10.

UPDATE: Samuel has written a personal review of the Halo 3 Heroic Map Pack!

Although I'm glad to see Halo 3's downloadable content finally coming out, am I the only one who think that 800 point is a little steep? Mind you, the prices for these stay the same regardless of currency, so us Euro-spenders are actually making a saving, so I probably shouldn't complain...
