Yeah so due to popular demand my thread is in the Maw now. Sorry people, it was my first post ever.

Anybody got a Halo tip, trick, easter egg, or funny story they wanna share? I know Ive got some.

Mine are for single player

Funny Story: I once snuck up behind a grunt sleeping right next to an Elite. One plasma nade in JUST the right spot, and the Elite was soon running in circles waving around a screaming grunt that was stuck to the Elite's arm. Well THAT lasted about 3 seconds...

Tip: Always get Sarge to ride with you because he has a sniper rifle with which he is uncannily accurate, and is AI is higher than the rest. Plus that sniper rifle provides him with a good spotting scope, and he'll see covies that u won't.

Trick: Uhhh...

Btw ppl, this can be for xobx, pc, single, co-op, or multplayer just tell us which one it's for.

How to get a tank on the base in blood gulch:

Park a hog outside with it's back to the base all, in a space between those barries on top. Drive a tank straight at it, and right as you hit the hog, point the turret as high into the sky as you can, and keep accelerating. Might not work every time but yeah that's how you do it. Tank on top of bloodgulch base =D.

You might also want to try this.

Run Halo in windowed mode:

Go to Start>Run, find your Halo driectory like "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo\Halo.exe" and the put -window on the end, so the full command will be:

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo\Halo.exe" -window

So once in multiplayer, me and this ONE other person were playing ctf at Infinity. as u can imagine it was pretty dumb and nearly impossible to score. We both got the flag, and both escaped in banshees. I didnt kno the other dude was in one, so i decided to banshee camp at his base. He showed up in a banshee, and we started flyin around in circles shooting at eachother in a desperate death match. He thot he'd pull a fast one on me and cut thru the middle of the big laser beam tower. He did that just as it fired, and dropped dead out of his banshee. it was hilarious i had no idea wat happened.

there are a few ways to get them up on the base. my favorite is parking a tank on the side at an angle. Drive up to it at max velocity at an angle( where the left wheel thingy is) i should take a screen shot, but anyways, it makes u flip right onto the top if u get it right. u can also park a hog on the side throw a plasma underneath , then a human, and then shoot with a rocket launcher. it should work. again this takes a few tries.

on the halo level in single player an elite was standing next to a cliff (cliff was to his left) i threw a nade to the right of him (u know how dumb they are always jumping away from the nade instead of into it) he jumped right off the cliff killing him. then i decided to go with him and see if i could do it again.

The towers in Infinity bases shoot very large columns of light upwards at ceratin intervals. Flying through one of these kills you instantly, which is what happened to your enemy. You were lucky, lol.

On multiplayer, PC, at about and woodland map, get a 'shee and fly yourself into a tree and you know how to back into it, right? Put yourself in the tree and wait a bit. Start crackin jokes, "Hey. Watcha doin?" "Not much. Sittin' in a tree, drinkin' a Bud...", eventually they'll come looking for you and try to kill you, but wait with friends and a trusty rocket launcher and your escape 'shee. Continue until they get annoyed and start combing the map, shooting at trees.
