Question of the Day, November 22, 2010



Today is the last day you have to win a real-life working replica [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/105438-You-Have-Four-Days-Left-to-Win-This-Halo-Reach-ATV] of Halo's Mongoose ATV from Mountain Dew. If you could have any vehicle from the Halo series to drive in real life, which would you choose?

Obviously, a Pelican Dropship.
I've been waiting to fly one since the first game, and they never gave me the chance ;~;
I feel betrayed ;~;
Although, I did fly one on Garry's Mod. Not as good as the real thing, but it helps.

Sabre, blatantly. I know it's be kinda hard to recreate a working starfighter, but one of the poll options is 'alien hover bike', and if that's allowed I want my Sabre!

Banshee, hands down. That thing would be so awesome to have in real life.

A Phantom dropship--all of the alien awesome of a Banshee with heavier firepower and prolonged spaceflight capabilities.

Warthog. They're so much fun to drive in-game... and WETA made a working model with the four-wheel steering and everything, so it actually is possible to drive authentically. (And, as one Bungie employee found out, it's possible to crash authentically too. Fortunately, it's built Halo 1 'Hog-tough.)

The tank: some days in Detroit traffic, you just want one.

ATV and Warthog are potentially realistic goals. I choose Banshee, because that would be awesome.

Banshees! Fast and low!

Seriously, who the hell wouldn't want to tear through the sky in that thing? Rain fuel rods on everyone, flip around upside down, etc.

Banshee....duh. A personalized and compact air craft with a never ending power supply, boost capabilities, and plasma turret? No competition.
