Subject: what"s faster a warthog, ghost, or banshee?

We’ve watched while the stars burned
Out, and creation played in reverse.
The Universe freezing in half-light.
Once I thought to escape.
To end a master, step out of the
Path of collapse. Escape would make us God.
Yet I cannot help but remember one enigma,
A hybrid, elusive destroyer.
This is the one mystery I have not solved.
The only element unaccounted for.

Don't compare a video game to real life. No matter how real it looks, it's still not real. The only way for any of us to actually figure this out would be to test it, and I haven't heard of anyone actually doing so yet.

Anyone who has halo pc just go to death island and race them! Personally I thinkt he banshee is the fastest...if not, they are all equal at TOP SPEED.

The Worthog is the fastest, but it takes time and flat, straight land to get to top speed and stay there.

The ghost is average as it can hover over obstacles, allowing it to reach its top speed quickly. But its top speed is slower than the Worthog.

The banshee is the slowest but is almost free from obstacles so it will almost always fly at the same speed.


The Banshee is an air to ground attack aircraft using anti-gravity pads to fly and hover like the ghost. Using gravity to fly meaning there is no thrust as such. So in free fall it will fall faster than if it was flying downwards.


If there are any questions or corrections to this please contact me and I will try to help.

pretty hard question but i would have to say the warthog. what do you think?


The Warthog is the fastest out of the three over open, relatively flat ground, but because of terrain, the ghost can usually go faster because of it's levitation and not being slowed down by terrain as much as the warthog is

Warthog: 55 mph
Banshee: 45 mph
Ghost: 46 mph


you got this info from where now?


common knowledge to freaks like us.
but the warthog takes a long time to get up to speed, so the ghost feels faster in tight areas.


common knowledge? i think your just agreeing with him because you dont know... i know bungie released how much damage each gun did but i dont think they have said the top speed of the vehicles... i think from fastest to slowest its: banshee, ghost, warthog...

ok first of all the ghost is most definatly the slowest of the three DUHH but ive never acctually played lvls with both warthog and banshee so im not sure but banshee flys so i yoted for it cause if it flys it has to have at least a good amount of speed even though it can probly float in one spot
