Member of team Master Theory.

17th Mythic Conqueror of Halo 3.
5th Mythic Conqueror of ODST.
If you would like to know more about Mythic difficulty please go to this thread. Thank you.

Please do not send me "recruitment messages" as I'm not interested in joining any groups currently.

For me it's actually the Reach Banshee; I really like the way the flips and bomb work on this one (accelerating bombs with fast flips and switching between cannons and bombs) and feel that with some minor rebalancing it could work nicely for Halo 4.

And so God called Moses to come forth but he came fifth and was therefore disqualified.

Space banshee.

I like how it looks but I preferred H3's banshee. I used it quite a lot on Sandtrap.

Halo CE, Halo 2, and Halo 3 Banshees' all suck ass IMO.

All worlds begin in darkness. And all so end.
The heart is no different. Darkness sprouts within it, it grows, consumes it. Such is it's nature. In the end, every heart returns to the darkness whence it came. You see, darkness is the hearts true essence.

Loved the sound that came from the CE banshee. Made it feel more alien.

The Reach banshee... It seems a bit more complex than the other banshees. For some odd reason it just feels right.

ODST hands down. ODST took the best parts of the banshee from all Halos and crammed them all together.

One thing I always question though, why the need to change Reach's Banshee into a fat tube with duct tape wings? All previous Halo's kept that same general shape to a banshee, and suddenly Reach felt the need to be even more "special" by changing the Banshee's well known appearance.

Ooh, I love those people, the ones who decide to throw everything and the kitchen sink at you, as if an M16 does anything to a T-90. Oh, MLG player with noobtube instead? Congrats! You blew off one of my ablative plates!

Gun, meet Bad Guy.
Bad Guy, this is Gun.

Halo CE superfast banshee.

Halo CE banshee had some crazy dogfights, but the Reach banshee is the most slick and in my opinion the best.

I voted for CE.

Agreed. All the changes are good and add variety. Do we really want another Halo 3? Just running around with one gun and no armor abilities? It's good that 343 wants to try something new. Do we really want the same thing for three more games?

Halo 3

I was good at it :3

I like to play Reach for fun. I hate MLG, campers, armor lock, and team killers because they ruin that fun. Deal with it.

Halo 3 because there was some actual skill to getting a kill. In Reach it's just bomb, then flip, bomb then flip, bomb, then flip.

If you want to play custom games in Halo 3 or later Reach, join our group =D

There's nothing else in Halo Reach that annoys me more than someone who knows how to exploit the Banshee lmao. I feel like rage-quitting every time >:(

Boltshot = mini shotgun

I like Reach's for its speed and maneuvers, and Halo 3 for its durability and bomb.

Best part is. People think they're pro getting kills like that. "Oh its your fault for not getting the banshee first. Its your fault for not getting to the power weapons while I am camping around you base killing everything that moves."

Exactly, spawning with the DMR doesn't really help either, I can only land like one shot in ten, which I doubt is lack of skill. If someone was really in that banshee constantly spinning there would be no way they can stay under control and aim well, just saying lol.
