Video Banshee Tutorial |
22 January 2002 |
 |
Mark Levin gives us a 7 MB, 1:30-long movie (QT format) showing the takedown of the first Assault on the Control Room Banshee (the same one covered by Enzyver, above, in stills). Worth watching if you're having trouble bringing it down! (He shows multiple locations for shooting.)
Update: Several people have written in to point out that a much easier way to take this Banshee down is to simply fire a rocket up into the bottom of the platform - the impact will force the Banshee off after a shot or two. No aiming required. :) |

Video Banshee-on-Bridge-Boost Tutorial |
26 January 2002 |
|
| Mark keeps filming 'em - 2.1 MB and 20 seconds is all it takes to show you the easiest way to a Banshee on the natural bridge on the Assault on the Control Room level. (As an added bonus, Mark shows what NOT to do after you get the Banshee.) |

Master Chief's Quality Used War Machines |
1 February 2002 |
|
| Insanity sets in, as Aaron decides to collect as many vehicles as possible in one location. Current count is 30, though a perusal of our forum would suggest that this is only a prelimnary total - now that he's shown folks what to do, the REAL limits will be examined. |

AotCR Bridge Climb in Single Player |
26 February 2002 |
|
| Climbing down that first bridge has been a couple of times... in coop. Before now, it's NEVER been done in single player mode. (In fact, many said it WASN'T POSSIBLE. They weren't counting on pinpoint placement of furniture with plasma grenades...) |

Painting the Sky with the Blood of an Elite |

|
| Once again, Metafire (aka Frogblast) shows that taking a Halo glitch and pushing it to its limits can provide hours of entertainment. Covenant Pinball, anyone? |

Warthog on the Pillar in AotCR |
4 March 2002 |
|
| In the middle of Assault on the Control Room, there's a large tower with a landing pad on top of it. Bungie used it for a Banshee... Frogblast used it for a Warthog. |

Magical Teleporting Elite |

|
| There's an Elite on AotCR who wants to get into his Banshee, no matter what - even if you move it. These guys caught him in the act. |

Getting down From the First Bridge (redux) |
19 April 2002 |
|
| Doum and Pat showed how to get down from the first bridge back in February - but we've had trouble keeping their movies viewable. Kuaidang has made a much more concise one (though he does die a few times trying to make that last jump), showing a different descent - hit it right, and you're enemy-free for the rest of the level. .wmv format, zipped, 3 mb. |

Bridge Jumping on AotCR |
19 April 2002 |
|
| If you descend from the first Bridge, you run the risk of hitting a locked door in the next bridge section - Kuaidang shows you a quick and easy way around the problem. .wmv format, zipped, 2.1 mb. |

The Start of AotCR in the Pelican |
25 April 2002 |
|
| Down to the bottom of the beginning of AotCR... in the Pelican. (Now it's been documented in both the Banshee and the Pelican - can anyone do it in a Ghost?) |

Banshee Attack on Cortana |
9 October 2002 |
|
| Sometimes, when you bring things to places Bungie never expected them to be, you discover attributes that you never thought characters had. Who knew Cortana could be attacked physically? |
