Microsoft and Bungie are offering a pre-order bonus for Halo 3: ODST. You'll get a code to play as Sgt. Johnson in the announced co-op multiplayer mode, Firefight.

From Microsoft:
"Listen up rookies! “Halo 3: ODST” drops on September 22, but will you and your team have what it takes to survive the Covenant onslaught in the new cooperative multiplayer mode, Firefight? Firefight will put you to the test as you and your friends assume the role of an ODST squad and fight together to take on increasingly challenging waves of enemies. It’s where new “Halo” heroes will be born, and an opportunity to step into the boots of a legend. If you pre-order “Halo 3: ODST” at participating retailers, you will receive a token to unlock grizzled UNSC hero Sgt. Johnson as a playable character in Firefight.

Fan favorite and “Halo” series stalwart Sergeant Avery Junior Johnson is a tough-as-nails career Marine who has been in more life or death battles than you've had hot meals. He’s survived more infectious Flood outbreaks, greased more Covenant bad guys, and earned more medals than any other twenty soldiers. And now you get to walk a mile in his shoes."

Details from Amazon.com:
"Pre-order and receive a code to play as Sgt. Johnson in the new "firefight" co-op mode. One offer per household. Limited to products shipped and sold by Amazon.com. Codes will be emailed 10 business days after the game releases."

Also announced was a second standalone disc with three new Halo 3 multiplayer maps (Heretic, Longshore, and Citadel), all original Halo 3 maps, as well as the “Legendary,” “Heroic,” and “Mythic” Map packs for a total of 24 maps. Halo 3: ODST will also include access for the Halo: Reach multiplayer beta. Halo: Reach is the prequel to the Halo trilogy, scheduled for a fall 2010 release. Halo 3: ODST will be available on September 22nd for the Xbox 360.

Pre-order Halo 3: ODST here. A Halo 3 ODST Collector's Edition with Halo 3 ODST wireless Xbox 360 controller is being offered exclusively from GameStop.
