Misc. Halo Level Tips

    Assault On The Control Room: Spinning Ring
    At the Halo start up screen, choose multiplayer mode. Choose cooperative play at the next screen, then choose your profiles at the next. Choose the level where in the beginning it says, "I would have been your daddy" (Assault On The Control Room). On the difficulty screen, choose legendary. When the level starts after the introduction sequence, have one of the players quickly press X when the "Press X to get on the Pelican" message appears. That player will re-board the ship and start flying with it down the hole. The other player will quickly die because of the aliens, and will be respawned on the spinning ring. Make sure to jump where there are gaps. If you are good enough, you can even jump to a nearby ledge. Additionally, once you are respawned on the ring, quickly jump off and fall to your death. Sometimes you will be respawned on the lowest ledge in all the blue haze, and a "Press X to flip the Pelican" will appear that the top of the screen very briefly.

    Assault On The Control Room: Fun with Weapons
    Where you cross the bridge, and all the little guys are sleeping, press B to hit them and quickly kill them. Leave one on the left or right still sleeping. Throw a plasma grenade on the turret. They will scream and sometimes get in the turret. Get back and watch the him fly out of the turret and fall to the ground very far below. Sometimes the turret will fall on him. When the dropship flies over and the other people with the shields start shooting at it, go up behind them and throw a plasma grenade on his head. He will run around and explode. Sometimes, he will fly all the way down to the ground below. Finally, when you get to the Banshees (flying alien vehicles) fly as high as you can. Then, floor it to the ground and hit people on the ground. Press L to shoot missiles and R to shoot lasers. Also, you can fly as high as you can and jump out. You will fall for a while, then hit the ground with a big "ch-wunk".

    Assault On The Control Room: Music from Myth
    Get towards the end of the level. Take a Banshee in the open area and go up to the Control Center. Locate the middle ledge that are around the central pillar in front of the door. Maneuver the Banshee so that is parallel to the walkway, and facing the left (with respect to the door), then land. Get out of the back carefully without falling. Walk to the right edge of the ledge and remain idle to eventually hear music from the PC game Myth.

    Assault On The Control Room: Steal a Banshee
    On the halo level assault on the control room, at the area where you run across a natural bridge to get to the other side (the one where you can see the entrance to the control room from it is very high up) you can run across very quickly and kill the alien getting in the banshee. take it yourself, and skip a lot of the level, it works in 2 player, but the 2nd banshee is a bit further on, so the first player who gets his has to ram the alien getting in it.

    Beach: Three Warthogs
    Get in the Warthog and drive around to the second group of trees. You will find another Warthog. Get in and proceed through out the level. When the supply ship crashes there will be another Warthog, giving you a total of three.

    Halo: Fast Kills
    During level 2 "Halo", you will hear the warning "Take cover -- Covent ship is in boundaries". Run into the ship that you landed in and wait for the enemies to appear. Your motion detector will indicate when they are present. They will eventually walk by, not noticing you. Throw a grenade and start shooting to kill them much faster.

    Halo: Drive Off Cliff
    Get to the part where you can get in the Warthog and go off the cliff. Jump out of the Warthog. The Warthog will fall. You can see it fall or stay in it to fall off and die.

    The Maw - Grunt Message
    There is a Grunt in the level that will give you a message. To get to him, go all the way past where the drop-ship is going to pick you up. About three rooms after that, there will be a shortcut to your right. Go in it. In the middle will be two doors, to your left and right. Unlike the shortcuts, the door to your right will be open. Enter it. At the end of the hallway, get out of the jeep and the Grunt will be there. He tells you something that sounds like "It's a good thing there was food on this Starship cuz I worked up a big mighty thirst!"
