It was in the OXM Holiday Edition (24th).

It didn't sound that thrilling anyways...

Aack, looked interesting but i'm not really that surprised. ATV vs.....a ghost, not really a good balance.

Well I was under the assumption up until now that every vehicle was going to have it's enemy counterpart. Doesn't have to be exactly the same in stats as long as it's the same in role. I thought the ATV was the small fast runabout comparison to the Ghost.
We know that there's a human flying vehicle to counter the Banshee.
The covenant gets a tank to counter the Scorpion.
And I was hoping to see a Covenant version of a Warthog.

But I guess they aren't shooting for a balanced set of vehicles after all.

Honestly, I trust Bungie on this one...I mean, it was going to work or it wasn't going to work. Obviously the latter is what happened and it's probably for the better.

Though, I must say, some serious cliff diving would have been fun on an ATV :D

OXM said it was dropped, "Presumably because it handled like it's real life counterpart. That is to say, it was unwieldy, dangerous, and no fun"

They've also dropped 4 Four-Player Co-Op...the limit is still 2 people

Well, you gotta look at it from the developer's standpoint. If they don't think it will work well, then, they simply cut it out. Personally, I trust their judgement on this...and I think the first Halo would have been bad with 4 dudes, too...but, hey, that's just me. I can't stand four way split screen anyway. But, I'm sure we'll be able to System Link the Campaign...I hope! That hasn't been confirmed yet either.
