I dunno, the website that claims that the yellow banshee does exist and a believable gameplay video to back it up. Movie available at: (requires quicktime, give a minute to load)

Anyway, I kinda believe it now, but it couldjust be the guy modded thepc version or something. Pc tools are pretty sophisticated these days, so anything is possible.

What do you guys think about all this?

I think you should define the word "exist". Only then will you learn the truth of the yellow banshee.

For everyone who says it doesn't exist, your wrong. The yellow banshee is actually a cloaked banshee that shines gold and can only be found in the origional version of Halo: Combat Evolved(The origional is the one WITHOUT the shiny Game Of The Year cover. I have the origional so i have proved this. So the yellow banshee is true and is not totally Yellow it just shimmers gold.

Well, I guess Bungie is wrong then. Because on the old site, in the rumor control FAQ they said it didn't exist. Unfortunately, Bungie broke one of the cardinal rules of web design and broke all of the links to the content on the old site when they updated b.net a few months ago, so I can't find a link from bungie.net

However, bungie.org has a short article about this.

But then again, maybe Bungie.net and bungie.org don't know what they're talking about. /sarcasm

If you are looking for a Banshee that is coloured yellow, you will be disappointed. The Bungie-gods are not so crude or clumsy as to RGB-reverse a model and stuff it into the game.

If you are looking for the Yellow Banshee in its true essence, in its Platonic sense if you will, you can only find the joy and wonder that comes from being part of the Bungie Underground Live-and-Learn Snipe-Hunter-In-Training Tertiary Evaluation Review System.

Only fans as hardcore as Bungie's could produce such a successor to an ancient and time-honoured tradition and turn it into the fantastic medium for growth it has become, waiting only for the proper hand to dispense it and thus nurture the seeds of our coming World Domination.

Heh, now you've got me thinking about writing The Tao of Bungie. But I'm not shaving my head, and I'm not wearing a saffron robe; they make me look (more) jaundiced.

-- Steve notes that "Tao" in the title could stand for Totally Awesome Online-ness; does that help?

Heh.

Anyway, the Yellow Banshee isn't real. Bungie said it themselves. The guy made that site just to make fun of gullible people who would believe it.

Hmmm, looks like someone used an alpha channel and missed around the game models.

Just ask Banshee Barron if it's true.

Maybe this all depends on if you have the XBOX or PC version.

The Yellow banshee is as real as those snipes that you hunt for in the woods. Those of you that have never gone snipe Hunting before... you are really missing out!

The yellow banshee is a fake, so is every other Non-Purple banshee story. Except for the Blue banshee, which was a glitch, something about a missing polygon count or a missing layer of colour. And it only happens in a particular cutscene at the end of a particular level, so you cant use it.

THATS THE TRU7H!!!!
