The difference between Halo and all those other games...

**Ferris Bueller** · 07-23-2007, 04:00 PM

Easy: People LOVE Halo. In fact, they love it so much that people create things from halo. The latest addition?
THE WARTHOG!

And heres the article from the Bungie website to go along with it:

If you live near Wellington, New Zealand, you might even see some crazy machine-shop dude from WETA fishtailing around your base, ahem, I mean neighborhood.

What’s it for? Well, a couple of things – one of which will be one of the shorts coming from director Neill Blomkamp. We sort of blindsided you guys with the first short (Arms Race) – it had little to no context or explanation, but when you see it as it was originally intended – as part of an overall narrative, you might just pee your pants. And if you don’t, then the picture below will certainly cause some leakage.

I had a look at WETA's website. Wow. Check out the trailer (the assembly line scene really nice).

When I first read the news item on bungie, I nearly wet myself. I have 2 near photo quality prints of this now, one I keep in my truck the other on my desk.

It's so awesome.

I want one. I'd drive it everywhere. Plus, I'd have a custom set of armor made from Nightmare Studios and i'd rock that too. People would be freaking out when they saw an actual warthog being driven by the Master Chief around town.

Drive by every university in the country.
