Halo 3’s extra special Spartan Recon multiplayer armor will finally be available to any player willing to crank out some Achievement points in both Halo 3 and Halo 3: ODST. The latest issue of Game Informer spells out the process involved. First you'll need to complete the four Vidmaster Challenge Achievements included in the last update. After that, you'll have to complete the three additional Vidmaster Achievements in ODST.
If you aren’t an avid Halo 3 fan, you may recall the Recon armor from the news generated by it. Bungie only gives it out to those it deems cool enough to have it. This bunch is usually composed of awesome players and journalists. A few isolated Xbox Live account hackings have occurred because of the rarity of the virtual item.
At least now those who have the armor don’t have to look over their shoulder constantly because of it. For those of you who are dying for it, you’ll finally get your shot. It just might take a good deal of (legal) effort on your part.

Halo is not that great of a game and i never play mine I don't give an ass what I look like in the game.
@crunks: ODST= Orbital Drop Ship Trooper
..........
Some of the vidmaster achievements are hard to do, so I think I'll pass on it. Besides, this armor has +200 probability of being team-killed and vigorously teabagged by jealous pricks.
They should have left the name at Recon. Not because ODST is a bad name, mind you. Because that is all this game will be remembered for. Go pay your $30 for some shit visual. I'm going back to every other game in my library.
i have the recon. all i did was end up winning a game. thats not all tho, i won 50-3 4vs. 1(my ther teamates quit)
i jus got lucky and was playing a complete nerd team, who happened to be mad. that was the last game of the night for me. n the next day i wanted to switch the armor i had 2 mix it up a lil', n low n behold, i had recon. idk y, maybe b/c i won so well.
but, i think thats total b/s. they shouldnt let you get it like that. keep it how it is, either work for bungie or astonish them somehow.
the ODST stands for Orbital Drop Shock Trooper...
I know many of you don't care, but for the enthusiasts, it's a crime to get it wrong. And there are people making WAY more money playing that game than you guys will ever see in your lives. I hope flaming makes you feel better about yourselves...gay
