Hello there good reader! This is a featured map article so, whadya know, we're about to present you with a delectable map for you to play with your friends. Thankfully Halo 3 should still exist in your regular rotating roster of rotund media that revolves in your 360 disc tray, before Halo:Reach shoves it aside to secure dominance over your life.

OK enough with the melodrama; this here map is called Flag Frenzy and it was created by Spawn of Saltine. To get an idea of what Flag Frenzy is all about, imagine if Capture the Flag were Dr Jeckyll; well then Flag Frenzy would be its psychopathic alter ego Mr Hyde. Get the picture? No? Well that's because this is just text - the pictures are below, ha ha! Don't you dare skip straight to them though!

So, in non-metaphorical terms, what do you do in Flag Frenzy? Well, that all depends on which role the game puts you in. You can be a Fhrower (Flag thrower.), Catcher (Grab the flag in mid-air and score.), or a Shooter (Stop the catchers, by means of Gauss-powered obliteration!). Part of the fun of the game is that your role may be different in subsequent playthroughs, adding variety to proceedings. Whichever role you're given though, they all play an important part and, more importantly, they're all a blast to play. Well, actually I suppose being the shooter is a blast to play, as the thrower it's a toss to play, and as a catcher it's a pinch to play, ho ho!

Flag Frenzy is a mini-game with a team-oriented competitive streak to it; it can just be about having a fun silly time, jumping and throwing and shooting like idiots, or you can plan to work with your teammates, and use precision and dexterity to try and wage a score war with the opposing team; whichever tickles your fancy (I'm very ticklish there!). So gather a big group of chum(p)s together and go have some fun on Flag Frenzy.
