Every weekend, a new playlist opens for Halo 3 players with gametypes that isn't normally available for other matches. Each win gives 2 EXP points, and losses will not take away EXP. Most of these playlists are unranked, except for the Legendary Brawl and the Valentine's Day Massacre. By far, the most featured playlist is the Grifball playlist, including slightly different arenas, and different leagues (spring leagues, summer leagues etc.)Team SWAT changed into a permanent playlist as of may 2008.
