I know that Halo has been out for like 3 years, but ive never read or seen anything about this. Anyways my friend and I were playin yesterday on the assault on the control room and we went down the mountain side at the first bridge so we could skip the triggers and mess around in the level. We got the banshees and were screwin around with them when we wondered if we could ride on the back of a flying banshee. We discovered that when you hold back on the movement control making the banshee hover so to speak, that it doesnt kill MC instantly. After some practice, we got it down so one person would fly around backwards and the other person would jog to stay on. It actually works and its fairly amusing to those of us who cant even play through a level anymore cause weve played them so many times. Its also fun to try to snipe off the back of one although very difficult.

yeah I do that a lot, but if you want to try something really fun have one person stay in the pelican at the beginning of the level and one person get ou and die. the person who dies after a minute will respawn on a spinning ring in the shaft. then jump out of the pelican so both people are on it and see who can stay on the longest. you'll know what I mean when you try it

Sentinal surfing > banshee surfing. You can get some pretty cool screenshots by jumping around on the sentinals in the library.

No way halo has been out 5 years, it was announced 5 years ago, but it was released after that.
