O.K., Which do you think is better? The Bandit (Dropship) from Combat Evolved, or the Phantom from 2? Speaking of which, would you rather fly a Pelican, a Bandit, or a Phantom?

I like the Pelican. Articulating wings and thrusters. A modular underbelly. The Pelican just emanates a sense of coolness.

Ghost, Phantom, and Spectre; you really think there is a covie vehicle called the bandit? The bus you take to school must be half the length of the others, isn't it?

I think it should be called a Doppleganger, or a Poltergeist.

Look... I'm on bungiepedia!

He called it a bandit, cause the humans' nickname for the Apparition is the Bandit, much like our nickname for the Uungoy (sp?) is a Grunt, Lobster, etc.

Phantom by far, then Pelican, then Apparition.

So, there has been the Apparition, Shade, Banshee, Ghost, Wraith, Phantom, Spectre, and Shadow...spooky.

Don't forget the Seraph, and Scarab.

HEEY!! Play the level Halo, while you're defending the marines right after you land, Cortana refers to the dropships that keep unloading covenant infantry as BANDITS, my little unggoy child. And besides, I wasn't talking about playable vehicles, I was speaking of DROPSHIPS.

i need some sleep.....

i hate bees...

no rest for the weary...

i think he was calling it a bandit... like a verb (a.k.a. describing it), not a noun... just my thoughts...

would you fly a Seraph or Longsword? In the level called the Arbiter, in the hangar, there is a Seraph docked that the Heretic Leader tries to escape in in the Heretic. At the end of Combat Evolved, Master Chief escapes the detonation of Halo in a Longsword fighter/bomber, and then meets up with Sgt. Johnson and some ONI spooks in a Pelican.

Serpah means angel, so that's not an evil-type theme..and those are better cause they go in atmosphere and out, and can do artillery strikes like a Longsword Fighter.

Phantom.

I think its safe to say it is going to be in Halo3, judging by how we see one in the trailer.
