As I stated in my previous report on bungie's upcoming DLC, a release was posted on Bungie.net detailing the second map of the Legendary Map Pack. Avalanche, this map is indeed the long speculated remake of the Halo:CE, Sidewinder. The map has had some changes made to make it unique and functional for Halo 3 and boasts an impressive size of map, large numbers of vehicles with quick respawn rates, and impressive visuals. This map is the second to be announced for the Legendary DLC, with only one map remaining shrouded in mystery. The Mongoose, Warthog, Scorpion, and Hornet have all received a new coat of paint for this map. The snow-esque design just adds for the immersion, and Bungie did so to further encourage the use of vehicles on this map. Some additional changes also reflect that desire, with the tunnel connected the two bases being removed which forces players out into the vast snowy plain. The map pack is due to come out next month, April 15th once again for 800 microsoft points. That still leaves plenty of time for Bungie to detail their final map before release and it will be interesting to see what else comes about.
