If you have had anything weird happen in a cutscene or anything weird happening to a cutscene. Plese put them here.
Here are some of mine....

On the Silent Cartographer mission, I was turning on the Silent Cartographer in that room it's
in. And I died immediately after the cutscene ended because there were Elites shooting at me. And when I died, the Cutscene started all over again with a new Master Chief with my dead body still on the Ground. It kept happening over and over and over and over.


Another time is when I was playing Co-Op. WE had gotten the Banshee from that platform early in the mission and flown it around. I found the Secret Siege of Madrigal music on top of the Control room structure. I flew a banshee inside the room and my friend took a Ghost in there. He killed himself with the Ghost when the Cutscene Started and it played through like normal except there was no Living Master Chief. But as the Camera panned behind Cortana, We saw the Dead Master Chief Body standing at a 45' Angle with his assault rifle in his hand pointing in the opposite direction of the floor. It was soo funny.



Later that day we were playing on Keyes, and when we got to the Bridge of the Ship, I ran strait for the Blob adn started the Cutscene. It played normal until the part when Cortana says "You know what he'd expect, What he'd want us to do". But before Master chief was able to plunge his and into Keyes former head. A Flood Carrier Form (the ones that pop) exploded behind him and he flew away. After a few seconds we saw him in a different place but still on the platform. It was strange because enemies don't usually attack you while in a cutscene.

one of my favorates is when i was playing silent cartographer and i walked through the door that was locked earlier and it took me to the cutscene at the ledge. and i accidently moved forward after it, and i got a checkpoint.So it was pretty much me falling to my death and then going to the last checkpoint, falling to my death again, infinately.

It wasn't a cutscene, but on AOTCR on the first or second bridge, i near one of the supporting structures of the bridge and i hear a sound that sounds like the bridge is going to collapse. Odd.

Was at my mates house smokin some spliffs and we started up Outskirts just to muck around. Well the begining cutscene was running normally but when it got to the bit where the Sarge loads his Sniper rifle the Sarge just wasnt there and all you see is this floating Sniper rifle loading itself!!!
I wasnt expecting it and just burst out laughing and conveiniently my mate wasnt looking at the screen when it happened and he missed it. Lol it was funny though.


A while ago on a zanzibar 4 v 4 game, it had trouble loading, and for a couple of seconds all i saw was floating SMG's running around.

truth and reconciliation-i went into a cutscene while being chased by hunters, and during the cut scene, keyes was killed and it just kept replaying the cutscene with keyes being mauled in the background over and over again

I can't remember the level. It's been a while.

The cutscene took place in a room guarded by sentinels - of course, the game expects you to kill the sentinels before triggering the cutscene. I didn't. I simply ran forward and triggered the cutscene (in which you have a chat with 343 GS, as I remember), and watched in shock as the sentinels proceeded to kill me during the cutscene!

"Keyes" a combat form didn't disappear in the cutscene and kept on slapping me (but my shields never ran out)

"Two betrayals" Sentinels killed me in the end cutscene!

I think the 'two betrayals' cutscene is the one I was referring to.

At the end of Two Betrayals, right B4 the screen goes white for the cutscene, I kill myself with a rocket. Theres MC standing there with a burnt mark on the floor and some rocks fall along with my equipment and my dead body. It was cool.

I know everyone already knows about this one, but at the end of AOTCR, I had my Banshee run me over (it goes foward a few feet and it crushed me) and killed me. The cutscene played as normal, but MC kept on moving foward in every cut, just a little upwards like he's getting up. Then, finally he has his Assault Rifle pointing at Cortana.

In "343 Guilty Spark" I had been smacking the Covie turret around right before I went into the building. When I got to the cutscene where Chief is watching the recording, Jenkins (the guy with the cam who you are following in 1st person for the moment) got stuck trying to run through the turret until the cut to the dead elite in the building they were standing around.

Me and my freind were playing halo 2 co op on legendary and it was at the end of metropolis and right before the final cutscene, as the screen was turning white, I was killed. the cutscene played for 5 seconds then stoped and we went back to our last ckeckpoint. It was weird cause the level was over but I stiil died and it counted that.

one time on keyes, the punch-splat cutscene started, but a combat form was visioucsly slapping the chief and he was smacked off the platform, so when keyes died, tyhere was just a hole, no MC.
