: I more or less agree with you. I didn't make my post to "fight a

: looking cool. I just thought it was "cute" in a way, and I'm a
: little sad to see it go. But I, for one, welcome our slightly more

It's not about realism.

Neither realism nor plausibility factor into the equation.

When this design first came out for Forza, we were told that it was the new 2553 model. Now that it's showing up in Forward Unto Dawn, I guess the Warthog has always been this way.

As far as the need to change the suspension for the silver screen, get creative. A little CGI here, dust clouds there, and some creative camera angles, and it shouldn't matter.
The Warthog is an iconic vehicle, and to me it's like 343i had redesigned the Covenant to look like rubber-forehead aliens, because it would cost too much to depict them otherwise in a live-action film.
