Write a Halo song, win Recon

by Richard Mitchell { May 11th 2009 at 5:00PM }

Bryan Simon may not be singing Halo 3 tunes anymore, but that won't stop him from spreading the joy of game-related songwriting. BrySi has posted a new video on YouTube to promote the Mythic Songwriting Contest, which could win you ... wait for it ... Recon.

The gist is pretty simple. Just record a song related to the Mythic Map Pack. You can play your own instrument(s) or, as Simon suggests, you can download a background track from Freeplay Music and write lyrics to go over it. Machinima to go along with said song is fine, but not required. The winning video, as chosen by the community, will net a new set of Recon for Halo 3. Check out BrySi's latest video after the break for full details.

I will use a Hanna Montanna song and change the lyrics...

*"You get the best of all worlds,
you crash land on halo,
and get to fight the flood"

That doesn't even go to the song at all -_-

I don't understand what is so special about a piece of armor.... Could someone tell me? I just don't get it.

Armor represents your accomplishments within a game. Because it is rare to have recon armor *(prior to the release of ODST), infants in the wombs of mothers are yearning for recon armor. It is simply the fact that many millions of people do not have it and that the one who obtains the armor has something the rest of the community envies. It is, in its simplest form, the supply and demand factor.**

**Like a person who owns a Ferrari in the real world stands out, so do Halo gamers that have recon armor stand out (within halo)

I think the Recon Armor is something worth avoiding. It does nothing, yet 13 year olds will go through leaps and bounds to harass you out of jealousy over a piece of worthless armor.
