Got a custom game style for Halo 3? Let's see it here. And yes, games you made in Forge do count. As an example, here's one submitted from the guys over at Rooster Teeth, based around an inside joke they made, Grifball.

Like I said, Grifball started as an inside joke in the machinima Red vs Blue, mainly from the character Sarge, who said while he and two of the other red team characters, Simmons and Donut, were firing sniper rifles at the fourth member of the team, Grif, while he was in a depressed state and climbed up into the rocks for solitude, "This is better than Grifball!" This gave the Rooster Teeth guys an idea to create a game variant called, surprise, Grifball. However, due to the limitations in Halo 2, it was impossible. When Halo 3 came about, though, that changed. Using the Forge map editor feature of Halo 3, Burnie Burns, one of the employees of Rooster Teeth, decided to try and get Grifball up and running again, this time to great success. Grifball, for lack of a better term, is a game of One Bomb Assault, but with special rules. The bomb starts in the middle of a court, and three or four players per team try to get the bomb onto the other team's bomb set location, or goal. Whoever picks up the bomb is noticeable on the red or blue teams, especially since his armor will turn the same color as the game's namesake Grif: orange. The defending team's objective is to kill the Grif, steal the bomb, become the Grif and score, while the offense's job is to get the Grif to the goal, set the bomb and score. Games are best of five, matches are best two out of three. In the words of Neg's Extreme Sports star Neg, SIMPLE.
Let's see what you guys come up with.
