Stay tuned!
every halo play through i did i always tried to keep as many marines alive as possible, hated watching them die and sometimes i'd revert to the last checkpoint if one died as well lmao
I thought it was just me that did that xD
Unluckyyy same i think i have ocd
+Daniel McKee Glad to see I'm not alone
The British Bean yeah same i always felt so bad for them if they died and when i was younger i would always try and make sure all of them made it into a vehicle
Unluckyyy I actually thought I was the only one who did that!
I really appreciate how this dude is just himself and he's not trynna be loud and obnoxious as the go to CZcams personality
So true. Beats the obnoxious, insufferable big halo CZcamsrs
Its refreshing tbg
Glitch to fix a glitch haha I love it. Awesome vid mate
Hi Jeff
Ello Jeff
Jeff
Maybe the self infected Marine was infected by flood spores in the air that he breathed in!
amartinez97 "That stench, ive smelt it before..." -Rtas Vadum
Capital_STEEZ or he got cut by a flood form and got infected and turned into one it's a true thing they can not in the games tho

Nah just the way the game was made.
Your proposal about cortana getting corrupted is better than 343's halo story
+Count Swagula We should create our own fan lore about the real reason Cortana got corrupted lol.
Generalkidd She probably got corrupted from the Gravemind.
Have you heard of the Logic Plague?
Count Swagula it's no secret why Cortana's going rampant in Halo 4. she's surpassed her 7 year expected lifespan. That's been in the lore literally since 2001
Well technically, in old Halo lore (pre-343), Cortana was indeed corrupted by the Gravemind briefly, but thanks to Master Chief, she recovered from it and achieved meta stability. However, that last bit was retconned by 343 to make Halo 4's story make sense. That being said, an alternative fact for why Cortana went rampant again could be simply that even though she recovered in Halo 3, Master Chief's careless handling of her ship and not safely ejecting, caused her to get corrupted again and degrade over time.
Generalkidd Actually her lifespan was kinda held back because of downloading all of the knowledge from the first Halo in the Halo ring
the "cortana room remake" makes sense. you literally leave her on high charity. they are LITERALLY the same place.
FantasyBattlesArena though i do agree that he was being quite harsh, i do understand where he is coming from. The issue is that the video is titled with the words "probably never noticed" when this is a thing that was quite bluntly told to the player if they knew the lore. However, he calls it a "remake" and passes it as no more than a throwback to halo 2 when it was legitimately the same location within high charity.
FantasyBattlesArena LOL as much as I hate trump and think he's an idiot, I certainly wouldn't mind it if this kid was deported. Kids these days have such bad vocabulary and reading comprehension.
jake salley Well as you can see in the rest of the comments, a lot of people never noticed what that room was and typically just ignore and rush out of the room to finish the mission. Not everyone is deep into the lore nor does everyone pay attention to every single detail. Generalkidd even mentioned in the video that some of us may have noticed these things before, but for the rest of the viewers, a lot of people never noticed this and probably would never have noticed it if it wasn't pointed out to them. So it's great that you've noticed it already, but for everyone else, be more considerate. There's also a bunch of new Halo players now thanks to 343 that most certainly have never seen anything in Halo 3 before and need to be shown that.
+whatifpolitics
DONKEYS are called JACKASSES, the democratic symbol is a DONKEY, get the connection, Hillary would've caused nuclear war, no one wants that! (unless that's your fetish, won't judge.) the Democratic symbol isn't a donkey just for shits and giggles
WhatIfPolitics hahahaha anyone who calls someone kid on the internet is usually a kid themselves. And your whole statement is just plain immature. Especially to be calling someone a "kid".
I hated being alone when fighting against the flood that’s why I always wanted the marines to stay alive
Jordan G is it possible for them to stay alive?
@@JrForgetFull
Yes, you can keep quiet a few alive in every game. Usually they just get in my way or steal my kills; However, I just ran through Halo Reach, Halo: Combat Evolved, Halo ODST, and Halo 2 on my run to play through all of them in canonical order on my Series X. I purposefully tried to keep them alive for the IWHBYD skull as just like the grunts they say and do some funny things.
Marine died from a heart attack
TheCitedAviator lol
No. It was confirmed in a Bungie Interview that the prophet of truth has a death note.
LiquidusSnakeX I will take a potato chip
AND EAT IT
looks like it was supposed to be one of those in-game scenes, in which the Marine dies as you walk in. But it glitched or something
TheCitedAviator aspirin overdose seems more accurate
The room that you find Cortana in isn't just a remake, it's supposed to be the same exact room as the one from halo 2
It IS the sanctum of the hierarchs again
Cameron i know it pisses me off that people dont know this. Miranda Keyes even says "LOOK! High Charity!" as it crashes into Earth, as a giant essentially space station crashes into Africa. Unless there is ANOTHER high charity where 117 left Cortana at the end of Halo 2, idk what the fuck these people are talking about. Clearly these people didnt actually PLAY Halo 2 or 3
I'm not even sure what your point is. Lol. It's not a remake in the sense that it's some other room that is just supposed to look similar, it's supposed to be the actual same sanctum of the hierarchs. The rest of High Charity looks different because you are coming through a different direction than you did before in Halo 2, so you are seeing different parts of the building. Also, the flood growth has taken over and reshaped the whole structure, so things look quite different as well.
It's the comments section on youtube. Of course we have to argue ;)
Personally I don't it is because the doors are different, I like my canon to be consistent with whatever objects & assets. Canon-wise it must a room above or below the same tower.
I always thought there was something off about that Cortana insertion but never noticed what.
Yeah, really. I don't care about the orientation of the data chip. The fact that there's no port for it to even slide into is what always got me. I noticed it on my very first playthrough, and would continue noticing it on every subsequent playthrough.
There's no port, so we have no idea what direction the chip was intended to be inserted other than exactly how Chief inserts it, lol. The pin receivers (in his helmet) could be to the side, like you're supposed to put it in sideways. Like I said, THERE'S NO SLOT so arguing it's supposed to go in straight down is pretty much a moot point. We can only go off how Chief inserts it into his non-existent slot that we're supposed to pretend exists but doesn't because of artistic/technical limitations.
lol what bothers me more is not the chip being put sideways but his helmet not having a slot for the chip in the first place he just puts it through his helmet xD
Same
*pitch black*
“As you can clearly see, they have battle rifles.”
Speed dial in the Warthog, it's in all three of the first Halos.
Gravedigger Gaming Yes, and it moves. 343's was a total letdown being static.
I believe it was also in reach, if I'm not mistaken
Silly Pillow every halo till 5. I love the new earthly but I hate the warthog suspension and dashboard...
Nope, Halo 4 didn't have it either, in fact, the anniversary editions don't either, MAYBE Halo:CEA, since it was just reach's hog, but not sure.
Your right. Halo 2 anniversary halo 4 and halo 5 had static dashes
For the wrong brute glitch, I don't think it's a glitch. I believe that they just passed Johnson to the Chieftain
Makes sense to me.
I wish the amount of people that watched this video still played Halo 3
Jahz D oh
Jahz D I do
I do
I do
I do
Mabey the brute was promoted to chieftain for doing such a great job!
That Brute had so much balls hurting Johnson that he ranked up that fast
Halo 3 was the GOAT
Sasuke The Husky it was
Id like to see you try to get behind that glass wall in the level "Cortana".
RevvyBoy or basically anywhere outside the map
soundlesspeal or survive to get there on legendary
its not that bad on legendary, if you know where to go you can go almost through the entire mission without having to fight a single flood
Absolutely hated the Cortana mission
James McKay me too
Hated it too. Was still great for the story but I tried to avoid it as much as possible.
Play it on legendary, it's the worsssst.
James McKay CHILD OF MY ENEMY WHY HAVE YOU PLAYED THIS ON LEGENDARY
Hadgerz I played it on legendary with two of my friends and we are not the greatest at halo. We did it with minimal deaths somehow, plus we found it quite easy. I assume it was based off my tactic to beat legendary, fight until one of us dies and take cover till they respawn. It was effective
I like the recognition this man expels on my favorite childhood game. Back when things were really cool and the story was a true buzz to play through.
8:25 Yes, this is definitely intended to be noticed as a part you visited in Halo 2. More sections were originally supposed to be recreated but they accidentally deleted loads of the original map files so had to hastily remake it using the assets from the ship at the end of Floodgate (which is why that part is so short, they didn't wanna make the repetition so noticeable).
I'm fairly certain that the original Cortana level would have literally just been parts of High Charity and Gravemind from Halo 2 but infected.
Also it's funny that most of these things are just poorly masked scripted sequences
I played through Halo 3 6 times and always knew that boat was suspicious. I went into theatre mode to try and look to see what was on the boat, but the whole time the Easter egg was right in front of my eyes...
actually on the mission Cortana your on high charity and that is the inner sanctum
FantasyBattlesArena, Why do you keep using the same thing over, and over?
inner scrotum
What the fuck dude that was totally uncalled for lmao, it is supposed to be the exact same room
FantasyBattlesArena chill tf out
The title should be "10 glitches bugs and continuity errors, and 2 secrets you never noticed"

The reason Bungie recreated the room where you get Cortana from in the mission Cortana is because that is where you leave her. Not necessarily that exact room, but in Halo 2, Master Chief has to leave Cortana behind on High Charity. Bungie most likely recreated the room to have a throwback moment for the fans that actually understand the Halo story.
I'm noticing that, for #4, a lot of people don't seem to understand context very well. That room IS a remake of the room in Halo 2. The reason being: Halo 2 and Halo 3 are DIFFERENT games that run on DIFFERENT engines, and have DIFFERENT assets, graphics, etc. It's the only room in the ENTIRE series that the player has been able to revisit in more than just one game, so Bungie had to REMAKE it so that it would work in Halo 3.
The mission is called "High Charity", the game makes it very clear that you very obviously ON High Charity, and at no point in the video did he say otherwise. I honestly don't understand this misunderstanding.
You'd be surprised unfortunately, Super Thundercrash. Not very many people pay any attention at all to even blaring points of story or detail in games anymore.
Actually didn't they also remake a forerunner room for the last level where the last terminal is
Zerxees the point is that this video is for easter eggs and glitches youve never noticed. Thats not either. Its supposed to be the same room and if someone didnt realize that they need to replay halo 2
Zerxees "High Charity, "*
Actually I’m pretty sure they were made on the same engine
In Halo 3, they were actually working on real-time reflections, which would've been neat but too demanding for such a minor detail. It would've been a neat touch though, but it looks too bright without some kind of specific setting. Here's some footage from a beta if anyone's curious:

Who else wants Halo 3 remastered
in Halo 2, arbiter have anus, THIS IS NOT A JOKE, IM SERIOUS
ARBITER HAVE ANUS?
you mean he wants anus.
WAM ANUS
Probably posted by a modder on April fools day
slayer157536 Nope its true look up gamecheat13 he does have one
the halo 2 room is teh same one as the halo 3 room because their both on high charity
I have passed that mother fucking boat and tried to get onto that bitch for almost ten years and never realized it looked like chiefs helmet. My mind is blown.
There is a way to get inside the boat, and I think there is a cool little poster in there with a pirates face or something on it. It's not very detailed though.
Self-infection: New armour ability in Halo 6 confirmed!
At the end of 'The Ark' the Brute Chieftain actually goads you into following him to a circle where you have an honorable dual. The brutes around the circle will not interfere and will just stand there and cheer.
I didn't know this for the longest time because it is really easy to miss the Chieftain goading you because you are fighting. And they give you an invisibility item so I would always use invisibility, rush out, and backstab the guy. I assumed everyone was just waiting around like normal due to me being invisible.... not waiting around dramatically for an honorable duel.
I Remember Finding The Ghost Thermal Vision a While Back When I Was Playing The Ark
hehe thx for bringing back nostalgia
You can visit the Silent Cartographer in the Last level of Halo 3. The last part of the warthog run is you essentially driving around the uncompleted coast of the Silent Cartographer.
I mean, chief always shoves Cortana into his helmet, and sometimes misses
For the Cortana room remake ~ The mission Cortana in Halo 3 takes place on the same ship as the mission in Halo 2. High Charity is the ship's name.
about this.. I played Halo before I knew what internet was so it was Split screen parties at my place XD
I think I played this for 3-4 years
#12 0:20 I knew
#11 1:11 Sort of knew "I knew it had a screen but thermal, meh"
#10 2:38 I knew "Played to much campaign"
#9 3:36 I knew
#8 4:20 Didn't know
#7 5:00 LOL???
#6 5:46 mhmm, didn't know
#5 6:20 Never notice that
#4 7:50 didn't play halo 2 ;) 3>ODST>Reach>1
#3 9:48 nice one bunji!
#2 10:48 Hahahaha this game always surprises me!
#1 11:31 I'm actually dumb to not notice that!
4/12
Mario Z this is why I liked your comment
do you still play on xbox 360 sometimes? if you do we could play reach sometime if you want
Rant!!! "Skip to last paragraph for the general gist."
Too be honest. I did, but I bought (mum bought it ;) ) the Xbox 360 original. The one prone to the RRoD "Red Ring of Death" and lasted right from 2005 to late 2011-2012, can't remember but it died.
If I had an Xbox I would just play halo. But none of the 343 games, they ruined it for me. It's just something about them that puts me off.
Off track here.
I would play if I had an Xbox.
PS halo reach was my favorite.
How did you never play Halo 2 and then say Halo CE is the worst? Casual...
Wait, did it come off as I said I hate CE? No I loved CE, had a crack on the school laptops. Used to play LAN with people at lunch.
All a potential H3A campaign really needs are:
1: Some improved mesh work on human, brute faces, and definitely more HQ modeling for hands/limbs for brutes.
2: Some of the extra features in ODST's lighting engine upgrade, and ambient atmospheric effects. Maybe some of the New Mombasa architecture imported into Tsavo Highway or The Storm.
3:and that's it, really
4: and then, I suppose, Prophet.
I like how the third odst is replace with marines and two are magically next to you xD
10:09
great work man, that took alot of time and gameplay to figure all this out. much respect for all that dedication keep it up!
At 7:30, chief's arm clips so bad, he shouldn't be able to bend it like that.
10:30, the ODSTs not only have different weapons, but marines appeared out of nowhere and the arbiter changed sides.
No Arbiter was stood up, then next he's sat down
The reason the room you get Cortana in on the mission Cortana looks like the one in Halo 2's High Charity is becaue the mission Cortana takes places on High Charity.
As much as I learned from this.. boy it felt cringy like you were awkwardly reading a script
Antonio Banderas he was. otherwise #4 would be gone, considering the room isnt a remake of high charity's inner sanctum, it IS HIGH CHARITY AND IT IS THE INNER SANCTUM. The fucking level TAKES PLACE ON THE SAME LEVEL AS HALO 2. THERES ONLY 1 HIGH CHARITY AND ONLY 1 CORTANA DUMBASS
FantasyBattlesArena wtf
FantasyBattlesArena He is right though. Its not a remake. Its the same fucking room
I think he did good . No fake persona crap many CZcamsrs do
Some Guy still a remake moron. He didn't say it was a different station whatsoever. So you're arguing a faulty point
I don't get why people dislike, you took the time to show us these things. Good video!
For #4, thats because youre on high charity
10 years later and people are still making Halo 3 videos. That has to say something about the greatness of This game.
Well..
It's because IT IS a great game, bro!
What you don't get is on cortana your in high charity and the flood infect high charity in halo2
M4xb0x 360 did you know that on that mission. where you find the pelican out side the map is the moselium.
armor rainbow wagon YOU SAVED MY DAY!!!! ive been pissed since the video creator not only told me shit i already knew, but thinks high charity in halo 3 IS SOMETHING ELSE, which then begs the question why the fuck is Cortana there? So ive been pissed off trying to explain to people THAT IT IS HIGH CHARITY, and not only do you already know that because you have a brain, but your also the only person to tell me something i didnt know! Thats fucking awesome i gotta look for that now! its the moselium of the arbiter???? that explains why its so big!
Some Guy OMG learn how to comprehend English! I've seen you try to spread your bs here because you don't know how to comprehend English. NOWHERE in the video did he say this wasn't high charity. You're so stupid, I can't fathom how you could be so stupid and try to spread your stupidity even further.
It's stupid people logic. Don't try to understand it.
armor rainbow wagon the one that the flood use to get on high charity is the one you escape high charity with cool
@ 7:20
He doesn't put Cortana's chip into his helmet- it goes through his helmet and into his brain. She actually occupies a space of his brain- in lore, this improves both of their combat and passive efficiencies tremendously.
Chief was able to deflect a tank shell with his bare hand, quite literally smacking it away.
did you notice the video's length of 14:07? 14 and 7 are multiples of 7
That observation is even more pointless of how he explained how chief inserted cortanas chip wrong.
in the mission "the covenant", after you kill the prophet, there are two brute flood forms that jump on top of the control panel thing, but once the cutscene is over and you are able to play, they turn into elite flood forms
This is the first time I watch a video when it just got out.
me too
I love how when Master Chief puts the AI chip in his helmet, there's never a slot for it. He just shoves that shit in there and it disappears 😂😂
the room with cortana looks like the prophets private room because it is supposed to be the same room, ya silly one
Theory: the real reason Cortana is messed up is because chief jammed her in wrong.
It's in da future and it can be sideways just sayin
The ghosts thermal vision is actually taken from the viewers perspective. Notice in the video you can see it change from when the camera man is above and behind said ghost ( showing ground panel in forerunner tunnel ) to when he's over the shoulder of the pilot showing the sword hilt and shoulder. At least that's how I observe it and I think that's how it works 😅
7:15 No wonder Cortana went crazy
EDIT: You beat me to it
I know the feeling, thinking of a great joke then realising it's already been taken haha
Ya know? Another thing I never noticed before?
A normal human holding the flamethrower is absolutely absurd looking...
Hi
Kirbylight 2 hi
Hi
Kirbylight 2 Hello.
Greetings fellow mortal.
Kirbylight 2 hello
After the self-infecting marine, in that building, when you kill the flood, all of their arms just roll around the floor until they hit a wall. Hundreds of twitching arms rolling.
Can you do more halo 1, Halo 4, or halo 5 videos.
Agreed but without the 4 and 5.
I dont think fish have those, even if they do, it would be really really small.
I would prefer some Reach vids instead.
TheAgentTexas, I liked Halo 4. The only thing I liked was that there was a light machine gun, and you can fly the Pelican.
That was pretty fun, but the story kinda sucked. And the multiplayer kinda sucked.
Not a lot of people also know that if you press B you can actually punch another player
If there was a halo 3 anniversary, I would be pissed. Its already on mcc, we don't need it in another game.
Master chief collection was a broken game. Halo 3 was the most popular game for years in xbox, an anniversary would make it in the spot light again. Most fans want an anniversary
jake vuckturd anniversary is not the same as halo 3 running at 60fps
Rhys Nichols I wouldn't buy it. I played it on 360 and on mcc. I've had the halo 3 experience already
jake vuckturd Stfu we need more halo
Good Night Sure I can agree with that. Just not halo 3 for the third time.
This was the game that got me hooked to gaming. I don't play games anymore but thanks for the video.
I want H3A simply to see the cutscenes remastered by Blur, and so that I can play Halo 3 on XB1 separate from the glitchy MCC! :D
Actually, the reason the MC puts Cortana'a chip in sideways is probably due to the helmet not being long enough to fit the chip in in. Because if you had to make room for a chip that big and it's port in the back of a helmet, it would take up a lot of space and would be easier to put it in the helmet sideways. Though I forget if he's ever put the chip in a different way.
7:30 he doesn’t even put the chip into anything on his helmet, he just mashes it into the metal on the back and it disappears like magic
The Sniper Rifle has a green thermal vision you can see enemy's and structures through
You can Ghost Merge (Which is where you are in forge, and you press "up" on the D pad while turning into the forgeball to basically glitch the menu to come up while you're in spartan mode, and you can merge objects into walls and whatnot.
Trick Jumping is an obtainable skill you can practice in order to get places others can't unless they also practiced.
People that play on bumper jumper get an upper hand on anyone they play against because this allows you to jump, aim and melee simultaneously while you can not do so on other controls.
5:41 I cant believe in 10 years I never noticed that
At around 10:28, the Arbiter/Player 2 is holding the Beam Rifle upside down.
lol yep
I miss halo 3 so much best time of my life
I didn't get around to watching this, an ad for The Mummy took up almost 2:30 of this time and I got hooked. Now I'm off to the movie thearter.
Number 2 is funny because it's so true. On the first mission you play as the arbiter on halo 2, if you watch the phantoms, the just fly into the end of the map and then fly at the very bottom and sometimes start spinning. It's funny as hell to watch
i get very nostalgic over halo 3 that i begin to get teary eyed
The thing with the Ghost Thermal Vision was one thing i noticed and in ODST a Marine says: Ghosts! They gonna see me
The location of the "Cortana" mission is High Charity which is were you previously escaped from and left Cortana in Halo 2. You know, it's that giant dome city. Since the flood's arrival, they had already started expanding their biomass up until you get there in the mission Cortana. Obviously you really can't tell where you are because the flood had expanded and spread everywhere. It's not really an easter egg. You wouldn't "noticed" it, if you hadn't played Halo 2. Besides, you were looking at the anniversary version of that location, and not the original version.
In case no one else noticed; on the covenant where the 2 scarabs come in and the 2 hornets land if you ride the hornet instead of piloting the marine will pilot and fly you to one scarab and land on it where you can jump off and destroy it, then before it blows the marine will fly back to pick you up and do the same with the other one
Knew all of them except the obscure light(hardly notable) and the hard to notice brute change from the tiny screen.
the self infected marine wasn't infected for no reason, it got infected because of the flood spores around in the area.
this guy deserves more recognition for sure
Halo 3 was a legendary game and still is. I still play it to this day on the Xbox One.
Looks like a Ghost just blinked at the Master Chief and probably was signaling Master Chief good luck, Guardian.
Halo 3 is one of the only games I played as a kid, it was a really good game and I hope to get the remake of it if/when it comes out
speaking of marine dying from nothing, in halo 2 the gunnery sergeant from the first level doesnt even die from the elites, i was using almost all skulls including explosion and scarab skulls and i think i knocked him behind a wall before i entered the room then when i walked in he just randomly died
I think the bigger flaw with the master chief chip thing is the fact that there is no slot in his helmet for it to fit in
11:02 when I first played "the covernent" I thought you had 2 go in them so I did but then I realised when the phantom turned invisible...
Your first entry should be revised my friend as Halo (all) now features real time reflections on all reflective surfaces on the Series X. However, I did know that none of the games featured reflections at launch. The Xbox 360 does not have the kind of resources needed to implement this. I was also aware of the Ghost vision as well. The S7 sniper rifle also has a similar effect. The Marine that turned into a Flood variant was likely changed by spores. This Flood infection is also an airborne pathogen.
Fun Fact: During the cutscene with Master Chief in a Pelican with ODST (weapon changes part) you can see him holding an S7 rifle. If you look closely at said rifle you will see a glaring problem with it. It appears the barrel has been sealed or filled in with something. If the Master Chief were to fire that rifle in the condition it is in...he would likely die. The rifle would explode killing anyone within his immediate vicinity.
The cortana chip made me laugh so much.
the Prophet of Truth's crown is knocked off in the cutscene but is back on when you see his body.
The boat looks more like Leia's outfit when she went to save Han.
The One About The SD Cortana Chip, it kinda does not make sense to say it went in the wrong way when halo takes place in a future timezone, meaning that the technology could be different.
One of the "Crashing Phantoms" will turn invisible and freeze in mid air instead of falling into the water.
Lengthy explanations of some of these things:
#12 - That's just a cubemap, which are very common in 3d games as they're much easier to render than actual reflections. A modder was able to enable realtime reflections on visors, but it was a little glitchy and required a specific helmet to be used. It's likely that realtime visor reflections were scrapped due to performance reasons, as the Xbox 360 is surprisingly weak and not much was known about optimization for it during Halo 3's development.
#10 & #9 - Again, it's something quite common in 3d games. When things happen off screen, where a player isn't really intended to see, there's really no need to fully animate everything. This is also why the marine in #9 holds the flamethrower wrong, as the particle effects are the only thing the player is supposed to see.
#8 - That's actually a weird glitch caused by the way the game handles ragdolls. When something dies in Halo 3, the corpse is not actually the thing that died, but rather a completely separate object (a ragdoll in most cases) with certain things inherited. In the case of the flood elite, the developers likely forgot to make sure that the flood elite ragdoll inherits the color of the flood.
#6 - Another weird glitch, with the way the game renders things this time! The lights use billboard sprites, which can be pretty wonky to work with. Due to this, some developers opt to simply disable the z-buffer/depth checking stuff for certain sprites, which results in them being drawn on top of everything. This is likely what happened with the lights seen there!
#5 - You see, Master Chief never passed preschool... Learning how to fit the correct shapes into holes with the correct angle is something he has never learned, so please, don't make fun of him! Be nice to him!
You'd think they'd have enabled real time reflections on the master chief collection though. The Xbox One is certainly capable of handling that.
Indeed. It's quite likely that the devs could've completely forgotten about the unused feature entirely, though it's also possible that it remained scrapped due to time constraints.
deathride58 I feel like it's a simple option to enable like anti aliasing. It was there and active in the Halo 3 beta in fact. It probably was just forgotten since there are a bunch of other issues with Halo 3 on the MCC.
There's a secret skull in the Xbox 360 version of Halo 3 on the Cortana mission that lets you spawn with a Spartan laser in the next mission instead of a rocket launcher. The skull is in the large dangerous room just before you go to Cortana and is on the ceiling rim.
This was cool. I knew most of this, but not all. Those last few were really cool. Considering how many times I've beaten this game I'm surprised I've never noticed them. It's really interesting.
10:20 no one's sat down, no one's there, but in the next scene there are all back to where they were, except Arbiter who's now sat down
The self infected marine is a glitch but in lore flood spores actually infect you inside out without you even noticing well that's until the infection form grows in you and breaks your neck.
I'm sure lots of people have noticed, but if you look in the sky on the last level there is a huge skull
