Celebrate Cinco de Mayo with a Halo 3 fiesta!

It's time once again for another 100% Bungie approved and X3F certified Halo 3 Double EXP Weekend! This Double EXP Weekend, we get to celebrate Cinco de Mayo with a new Legendary Map Pack required, ten person, social, free for all, Fiesta gametype playlist called "Cinco de Mayo". How appropriate, right? For those who aren't familiar with Fiesta, it's pretty much Slayer but every time you spawn you're given a random weapon or two. Kinda like a drunken, super violent fiesta ... get it? Also, since it is May, Bungie rolled out all the new Halo 3 playlist changes including the addition of a full-time (and ranked) Team SWAT as well as making Social Slayer a 4v4 playlist. Check out the matchmaking updates, go play Fiesta and celebrate Cinco de Mayo the Bungie way.

I dunno, GTA4 was pretty overrated I thought.

Fun game.

Even if I finished GTA4...

Even if all my friends finished GTA4...

I STILL wouldn't be playing this playlist because I would be playing GTA4! But, for arguments sake, let's say my mom finally realized that the simple bowling and driving game I was playing was the uber-violent, uber-sexualized GTA4 and snapped my disc, I would be trying to get the Halo 3 campaign achievements (meta game + finishing on Legendary with my friends since I suck :P), not playing Fiesta - Fiesta is kinda cheap anyways because you always somehow end up with a plasma rifle and have somebody spawn in front of you with a rocket launcher :S so I would be playing Team SWAT then - just because it FRACKING PWNS with a mouse and keyboard :D (if you don't know what I'm talking about, xim360.com)
