The Master Chief emerged from his code. After seeing his dynamically lit realtime shadow, he went back for 9 more months of development.

They talked about adding it in one of the updates, but it was not in use during the E3 demonstration.

Hmm... *checks Halo PC manual*

Actually, you're right, they haven't named it that, i've just picked it up somewhere and thought it natural even before i watched RvB... sorry bout that guys.

It's called the boom hog, and this topic is not about the name of the rocket hog.

It will not track as far as I know.

Possibly, but Red Vs Blue came up with the name Puma for the orginal Warthog on the Xbox a year before the release of Halo PC.

If you look at the back of the box for the JoyRide Studios Warthog, it describes the Warthog as having Puma like agility.
