Halo 3 Heroic Map Pack is now free
March 26th, 2008 |
The Heroic Map Pack, which had been selling for 800 Microsoft Points on Xbox Live Marketplace is now available for free. The change was made at 2:00 pm Pacific Time today.
The good news for those who already paid for the maps is that (a) there will be more games on these maps, and (b) you got a head start on finding your way around them. (Yes, I feel a little cheated too.)
The next set of maps, the Legendary Map Pack, will be released on April 15. This one won’t be free — at least, not at release time. Expect to pay 800 Microsoft Points if you want to play on the new maps.

Am I the only person who’s sick of this kind of thing? We buy map packs only to have them become available for free a short time later… Well I’m happy when it happens to maps I haven’t bought yet I guess.

Oh, definitely not. It’s quite annoying, especially since I barely played the maps until they became free and started showing up in regular game modes.
