Vidmaster Achievements leaked?

There has been an apparent leak of the new achievements for ODST, vidmasters included. I personally have not looked at the whole list of achievements and skipped straight to the vidmasters to see how exclusive the armor will actually stay.

Vidmaster Challenge: 7 on 7 – 0 GamerScore
Entered into a ranked or social playlist with 7 EXP on the 7th of the month.

Vidmaster Challenge: Lightswitch – 0 GamerScore
Got the rank of Lieutenant in any playlist in the new EXP progression system.

Vidmaster Challenge: Annual – 0 GamerScore
After 9/25/08, completed Halo on 4-player Legendary LIVE co-op, with Iron, and everyone in Ghosts.

Vidmaster Challenge: Brainpan – 0 GamerScore
Find all the hidden skulls on the Mythic maps.

Vidmaster Challenge: Endure – 25 GamerScore
In Firefight, on any mission, passed the 4th Set on 4-player Heroic LIVE co-op.

Vidmaster Challenge: Déjà vu – 25 GamerScore
Completed Highway on 4-player Legendary LIVE co-op, with Iron, and no ‘Hog or Scorpion.

Vidmaster Challenge: Classic – 25 GamerScore
Finished any level solo on Legendary, on LIVE, with no shots fired or grenades thrown .

I have to say, the new achievements look to be of a high enough difficulty to warrant Recon to still be an exclusive reward. Classic seems incredibly difficult. To be able to finish a level on Legendary on Solo without shooting a single bullet or throwing a single grenade is one hell of a task.

Bungie have also announced their Bungie Day extravaganza where it will Bungie Versus The World. There will be a 24 hour playlist that will be 4v4 Slayer and CTF on Foundry and Sandbox map variants. If you get matched against Bungie and win, you get Recon. If you lose? You won’t just lose your chance at Recon, but also your friends who blame you for having that -6 K/D ratio. You can also win Recon via some statistical achievements that will be similar to those seen on the Valentine’s Day playlist. So this could be, get the most kills, win the most games in a row and maybe losing the most number of games.

Good luck.
