After a quick 12-hour countdown on the Bungie site they have posted a teaser trailer for one of their new projects. In the video you’ll see Halo 3 - Prepare to Drop. So it’s obviously an offshoot of Halo 3. Perhaps simply titled Drop. The items seen falling from the sky in the video are metallic pods like dropships in multiple sci-fi stories. What is inside of these pods remains a secret and the subject of much speculation.

And here I had hoped they would get off the Halo bandwagon, spread their wings and soar to new heights with a new property. But wait a second, wasn’t Halo built to be a trilogy? I guess if the horse isn’t fully dead you should keep beating it until it is and if it coughs up cash every time you hit it, well then hit it harder and faster than ever before must be the rule.

Anyway, you can check out the video over at the Bungie site or on Xbox LIVE Marketplace.
