Fast kills

During level 2 "Halo", you will hear the warning "Take cover -- Covenant 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.

Legendary setting

To complete the Halo level in legendary mode, hide in the Human Lifeboats. The Elites will attack, but will rarely hit you. Throw Plasma Grenades on them and use the Needler to blow them up. Then, get out and mop up the Grunts and the Jackals. This almost always works.

Shortcut

The following shortcut is very useful in legendary mode. After you start the level and defeat the first two groups of enemies, head towards the structure where you have to fight the four Dropships and protect the Marines. Once you round the corner that leads to the structure, stick to the left wall and follow it until you reach to the entrance to the tunnel. Wait there. After about three minutes, Conrtana and Echo 419 will start talking. Echo 419 will say "Warthog deployed". Just walk back there and get the Warthog to be on you way.

Flip the Banshee

Play the level under the legendary difficulty setting. Take out one of the Banshees while fighting the first group of Covenant by the rocks. You can just start fighting, then run to kill the Banshee. The other should land. This is actually much easier to do with the human pistol -- just use the scope.

Fly in Banshee

When the Banshee arrives, shoot the back of it repeatedly. If done correctly, the Banshee will fall unharmed, allowing you to can fly to your destination.

Always plummet to your death in a Warthog

Just after you exit the tunnel (with the light bridge) in a Warthog, drive off the cliff. Keep close to the tunnel mouth. When you die and revert to the last checkpoint, you will be on the edge of the cliff, just about to fall off. It is possible to turn around and drive the Warthog to safety, but it is very difficult.

Have Marines stay

Before you rescue the group of Marines that you need to go through the underground tunnels to reach (should be the second group, but it depends which way you go), drive the Warthog into the opening of the tunnel that is next to the cliff. Half of it should be in the tunnel and the other half should be out. Get out and you should be inside the tunnel. Rescue the marines then jump back in the driver's seat of your Warthog. It should be stuck, but just drive it out of the opening enough so that you can get outside the tunnel, but still block the opening. Clean up the rest of the enemies then Echo-419 will touchdown for the evacuation of the Marines. However, because they are stuck trying to get through the opening with the Warthog in it, Echo-419 should take off without them. You can then get the Warthog out of the opening. If a seat is empty in the Warthog, one of them should take it.

Get on cliff area

When you reach the first life beacon, do everything needed to get Foehammer to drop off a Warthog. Go to a part of the wall that the tunnel is on near the life beacon, where grass and snow meet. If you get enough speed and hit the correct part, your Warthog will start to inch its way up the side. It will take some time, but eventually you will get to the top. Once there, you can drive around but the controls will freeze everyt ime the beacon fires blue.

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.

Fog fall

In the room where you activate the energy bridge, proceed through the level until you make it outside. Then, go back in the building. The bridge will not be on. There is a small ledge hanging out of the side with glass in the middle on the right side of you. Ramp the Warthog off it. Your Marines will die, but you will make it down into the fog.

Sniping location

When you go to the second life boat, get the sniper rifle and ride the Warthog to the right of the first structure and up the hill. Note: This will only work if you go up the shadow of the tree. This is very useful under the legendary difficulty setting.

When you have crash landed on Halo and run across the bridge, turn left and go to the edge of the cliff. Turn to your right and go past the big boulder which is on your right. Jump up onto the boulder. Be prepared because the alien Banshees will have no trouble finding you. Look over to the other side of the bridge and switch to your pistol. Use the zoomed view and start shooting some aliens.

At the end of the level, before you rescue the last group of Marines at the installation on the cliff edge, try this trick. As you pass between the mountains that lead to the base, turn your Warthog to the left. Now, facing the mountain wall, start driving up the flattest face of the mountain. It may take a few attempts to find the correct location. You will slow down when you get near the top, but you will still be moving forward slightly. After a few seconds, you will reach the top. From this vantage point, you can see the entire level. Use it to snipe the enemies below, take a close up look at the planet above using any of your weapons' scopes, or to rain grenades down on the Covenant. Also, you may see red blips circling you on your radar, but you cannot see what they are.

Get to the part where you see the words "Reunion Tour" on the screen. A hill in front of you will have two Jackals on it. After them, you have to save the Marines who are hiding in the structure. Enter the area with the Warthog and follow the hill to your right. There will be a tree right by the hill that will have a brown spot near it on the ground. Drive straight at the hill where that brown spot is located and your Warthog will go up it. Your Warthog will slow down as you near the top, but keep going and you will have the best sniper location.

Skip intermission sequence

There are some intermission sequences that cannot end with the push of a button. One of these is on the Halo level, when you and some soldiers drive to a energy bridge that needs to be activated. To trick the Xbox into skipping the intermission sequence, kill all the aliens desired, then drive out to where the energy bridge would be. Stop at the edge and carefully tilt the Warthog about halfway over the edge. Make sure it does not fall. Activate the bridge. When this is done, you should be able to walk over to the Warthog without the intermission sequence starting. The Warthog should be halfway into the bridge. Just drive away and the glitch will be fixed.

Reach second bridge

When the level is started, you must cross a bridge. There is a second bridge under it. Run towards the bridge and jump at the wall at the start of the bridge. If done correctly, you should slide down the wall on to the second bridge. Note: You will die many times before mastering this.

Explore cliff

At the second Marine rescue, there is a cliff. Use the Warthog to climb the wall on to the cliff. There should be two Banshees that attack you, but you can walk around freely. Note: The Banshees will attack no matter what.
