This may or may not have already been addressed...I don't know for sure, but I'm not willing to go through the ridiculous amount of posts to find out if someone mentioned it somewhere.

Anyway, on page 47 of the Game Informer magazine (issue 133) there is a screen shot for Halo 2 multiplayer. If you look above the ghost you'll see some sort of vehicle getting the piss blown out of it. (Looks like a plasma grenade explosion). That does not look like a banshee to me. Anyone else feeling me on this? It might be some other type of craft or turret or something. In all seriousness it looks like some sort of modified banshee or something akin to that. The "wings" seem to sweep down and then out to the sides and there are two hemishperical protrusions on the front that weren't on a banshee from what I remember. Any one else see what I'm seeing here, or is it just wishful thinking?

Banshees are confirmed for multiplayer, if that's what you're getting at.

banshees will be in multiplayer, but that vehicle that is shown blowing up could be a ghost but now that i look at it again, the bottom doesnt look like a ghost, it lokks like a banshee

if it was a new vehicle then game informer would have mentioned that in the article, and also bungie would not have let them play with that vehicle if they are trying to keep it secret. so basically, its either a ghost or banshee. i think its a banshee because they way the bottom looks. if you have the little joyride banshee then compare it to that and you will see

ALSO- on page 48 it shows the banshee and the ghost doing the boost

Nice, I hadn't noticed the boost thing when I looked before. As for the vehicle being a banshee...I guess. It just doesn't look quite the same as other banshee pics I've seen. Maybe it's just wishful thinking, but just because GI got to post the pic doesn't mean that Bungie wouldn't have asked them to simply not mention a new vehicle. They do want to keep as many surprises for release as possible after all.

Guess I'll just have to wait and see if it truly is or isn't a new vehicle.
