Equestria Daily - MLP Stuff!: Halo Official Screenshot of the Day: Sonic Rainboom

Halo Official Screenshot of the Day: Sonic Rainboom

by Sethisto

Over on the official halo website, the screenshot of the day just happens to be pony. I am not sure how they choose these, or why this one in particular was chosen (Other than being awesome), but it looks like we have spread to yet another major company.

Thanks to everyone that sent it!

Ok, this is just amazing. I've never been a big fan of the Halo series, but they're fun games, this just made Halo 20% cooler.

Lovely! But I guess it's unlikely many non-bronies will catch the reference.

Awesome ponies aside, it still deserves screenshot of the day for how time consuming it must of been to get that rainbow effect.

I was wrong Rarity would be a ghost cause it is sleek and stylish

@crazyredemuI'm thinkin twilight would be a Gauss Warthog, since it's pretty high tech, then I guess Fluttershy could be a ghost, since it's quiet and called a ghost. Applejack would probably be a scorpion since it has a lot of bang for its buck, and Pinky-Pie could be a Forklift since she's so random!

So we've assigned vehicles to the main cast...time for weapons.

Twilight Sparkle - DMR. Tactical, accurate, to the point.

Applejack - Shotgun. Of course.

Fluttershy - Plasma pistol. Easy to underestimate, shockingly lethal when placed in the right circumstances.

Rarity - Needle rifle. Pretty to look at and a little weaker than Twilight, but still requires precision and a delicate touch.

Rainbow Dash - Sniper rifle. If you can see her, it's already much too late.

Pinkie Pie - Rocket launcher. Call it annoying, call it amateur, call it damned near impossible to aim, but wherever this sucker lands, shit's gonna go down.

And finally, Derpy - Needler. Because the only people who use it are the cross-eyed ones who can't shoot straight otherwise. :D

@Angel Heart
Yea, I agree. Fluttershy could also be the copter thing cause then you could have a white sparten in the gunner seat, named Angel

I don't know about that weapon list
Fluttershy-Spartan lazor, simular to the stare
Applejack-gravity hammer brute force
Rarity-Needle rife cause it's precise
Twilight-Needler cause it's not as precise but there is a lot more of them
Dash...that covenant concussion gun thing cause it's fast and colorful and loud and big and so on

You assigned an ugly thing like the 'Hog to Rarity? When you had a perfectly good Revenant to give her? For shame.

The source for this is:

Just putting that out there, so you can see the comments on it, and the tags. And yes, it's definitely intentional for it to look like that.

Ooh, it actually includes the "sonic ranboom" title on the official site! This guarantees at least a few new bronies when they google it :)

PS: this was done in Halo Reach, not 3. Also, all they did was place multicolored spawn points everywhere. Nothing to go crazy about, though it did require skill and some time.

Can't wait for anniversary remake.

@Skylark Torch This.

As an ex-Halo 3 screenshot reviewer, I can say that there's much better stuff out there.

Still rainbooms are rainbooms.
