Every weekend, from Thursday to Sunday (North American Timezone), a new playlist called the '''Double EXP Weekend''' 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 (however, if you quit out in a game, the standard EXP penalty will be applied). Most of these playlists are unranked, except for the Legendary Brawl playlist, the Living Dead playlist, and the Valentine's Day Massacre playlist. By far, the most featured playlist is the Grifball playlist, including slightly different arenas, and different leagues | Every weekend, from Thursday to Sunday (North American Timezone), a new playlist called the '''Double EXP Weekend''' opens for [[Halo 3]] players with gametypes that isn't normally available for other matches.
