I predict the winch on the warthog will be usable in Halo 3. I E-mailed bungie with this idea even before Halo 2 came out. I can see it happening, it would be sweet. Also it would bring many new gameplay options and multiplayer madness.

Um, just because you e-mail them an idea, (one of thousands they get), doesn't mean it would be there.. There's no function it would even serve.

Yea. Like, if you were jump starting your friends Ghost, and an enemy came, you could clamp the cables onto the person and electrocute them to death! Then you could proceed to "winch" him out of the hole.

They could just add this for it's own sake. It would'nt be that hard to put in.

The fact that it wouldn't be hard to put in is irrelevant. The fact that it would serve no purpose, is. Saying they should put it in just because they can, is like saying they should have a Hero Stance for Spartans and Elites in multiplayer, like in Super Smash Bros. It wouldn't be difficult, but it would serve no purpose.

The only purpose I could see it being used as was a repeling device, and the levels would need to be massive for that.

Well Bungie already started on making Machinima easier with the removable HUD, and adding some simple, tasty features for RVB should be too hard. Any Machinima producer knows that they must be extremely creative because there are limited things in a game that they can use for props, so they must stretch everything out and have a good story. Difficult job, it is.

Heck, they could just release the game and then have the kit as an update over live or offer it in the Limited Edition.
