Halo DLC info

Bungie has revealed that one of the new maps featured in the "Legendary map pack" (expected to release next month for 800 ms points) will be based on the classic map "sidewinder" from Halo: Combat Evolved.
"Numerous changes have been made, including the removal of the back infantry hallways and the addition of vehicles from Halo 3, but the screenshots show the arena takes more than a fistful of inspiration from the original".

Speaking in an interview on Bungie's website, designer Niles Sankey stated why the company decided to recreate this particular map:

"Two reasons: Sidewinder is one the most requested remakes and we also needed another big vehicle map. And maybe this isn't the only classic we're remaking. There's always hope for said Internet Halo fan."
This news should excite fans everywhere, with Halo 3 being one of the Biggest online games on any games console this will surely create a storm amongst gamers worldwide. The only question left for gamers to answer is whether they will pay the 800 points to have the maps on launch or wait a few months and get them for free.
