New Halo 3 Achievements list leaked?

Photographic evidence says so.

The internet has spotted what appears to be a leaked list of upcoming Achievements for Halo 3.

The 30 rewards, supposedly photographed from a "Mythic" build of the game at PAX, total 750 Gamerpoints, according to the Ascendant Justice forum (spotted by Kotaku).

These divide down into three identical packs: 10 Achievements, 250 Gamerpoints a piece. Which makes sense.

Most of the detailed Achievements appear to be based around bunches of maps, such as the Legendary pack previously released - adding fuel to the "these are map packs" argument.

Examples are "Double Double", which offers 25 points for two Double Kills during a ranked or social match on a Legendary Map; or "Defend This", which awards a whopping 50 points for beating someone to death with a flag on a Legendary Map during a ranked or social match.

Bizarrely, there are also Achievements that give zero Gamerpoints, such as "Vidmaster Challenge: 7 on 7", awarded for entering into a playlist with seven experience on the seventh day of the month.

We're checking authenticity with Bungie.
