==Overview==
==Overview==
''Halo 3: Mythic'' is the complete multiplayer experience for ''Halo 3'', allowing players to play [[matchmaking]], [[custom game]]s, Forge and Theater on any map in ''Halo 3'' - unlike the similar ''[[Halo 2 Multiplayer Map Pack]]'', which only installed its map selection to the console hard drive. The disc does not allow access to the ''Halo 3'' [[campaign]]. The menu of the disc has a different background to that of the standard ''Halo 3'', instead showing a lone [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark VI|Mark VI]]-clad [[SPARTAN-II program|Spartan]] on the map [[Citadel]]. The main menu plays sections of the tracks ''[[Movement]]'', ''[[Choose Wisely]]'', ''[[Never Forget]]'', ''[[Roll Call]]'' and ''[[Tribute (music)|Tribute]]'' - all from the ''[[Halo 3: Original Soundtrack]]''.

The artwork on the ''Halo 3: Mythic'' disc is a screenshot of ''Halo 3'' multiplayer taken by ''Halo 3'' player Ryan Wheeler. The image had been taken by Wheeler, and was selected for use due to Bungie's wish to use an iconic community image to represent the Mythic disc and the [[Halo 3: ODST ViDoc: Road to Recon|Road to Recon]]. Ironically, the screenshot was thought by Wheeler to be "mediocre". Wheeler was rewarded by Bungie with a care package including a signed ''Halo 3: ODST'' poster and was interviewed in the Bungie Weekly Update.{{Ref/Site|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=https://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=BWU_092509|Site=Bungie.net|Page=Bungie Weekly Update: 09.25.09}}
