Video games are big business, some of the earning more than Hollywood blockbusters in their opening weeks. Microsoft has struck gold with its Halo franchise of video games, which they might eventually turn into a movie.
But even if that doesn't happen, a real-life version of the assault and support vehicle known as the Warthog has been created.

If we remember correctly, this isn't the first Warthog ever made, but this new one is supposed to resemble a newer model found in the Halo games.

From the drilled front member of the ladder chassis and the shape of the suspension arms, we can tell you this is based on a Hummer. We haven't been able to find a video yet, so those body panels might be plastic or fiberglass, not ideal for when your under heavy Covenant attack.
