According to a poster at Ascendant Justice Forums, a new set of Halo 3 Achievements are on the way. Allegedly, there are a total of 30 Achievements being offered for 750 points. The information and photographic “proof” are said to originate from an especially sneaky photographer this year at PAX.
If you look closely at the Achievements listed, you’ll see various mentions of a “Legendary” or “Heroic” map, which coincide with previous map packs released by Bungie. If these two map packs were the only ones included in the Achievements, then Bungie would be breaking Microsoft procedure regarding 250 point Achievements for downloadable content.
This means in addition to staring at these photographs that could be fake, we’re supposed to presume that the Heroic and Legendary map packs will be getting their own unique set of Achievements, as well as an unannounced (Mythic) map pack. I’m usually not one to stir the pot too much, but these look believable. Hopefully, we’ll know more soon.

Are they adding new single player as well? And the 7exp on the 7th day seems a little silly considering most people with the map packs probably play the game a lot.
And that's cool, whatever adds more to an already awesome game.
Fuck it, I'll be playing LPB and R2 anyways.
If they didn't find the info on your blog, then they're not obligated to mention it. As suggested above, they found it via Gamepro, thus Gamepro gets the credit. Standard procedure; don't take it personally.
Still, 1750 is a HUGE jump from 1000. I would be a sucker and get the new maps just to get the 750 extra on Halo 3 to have it all completed.
I dunno, this seems a little suss
Heck, even a katana equivalent for Elites would be nice...
