Shortcut
Play "Assault on the Control Room". It doesn't matter what difficulty
setting or if you are playing 1 or 2 player mode. Get to "If I only had a
super weapon". Rush right ahead and ignore the Jackals and the first Elite.
Instead, kill the second one as he is somind over the hill. Then run to the next
one who is coming around the banshee. If you kill them both, the two banshees
will be yours for the taking. I would suggest using the Plasma Rifle for killing
them, as it stuns. You can use the 2 banshees for a banshee fight with a friend,
too. Anyways. Ignore the enemies and do not go to the end of the bridge. Instead,
go to the top of the hill that leads to the Control Room. There will be no Hunters,
or aliens on the way up the hill! There will be the enemies that come out of the
big door, though, but this shave's precious time off the level.

Assault On The
Control Room: Spinning ring
At the Halo start up screen, choose multiplayer mode. Choose cooperative play
at the next screen, then choose your profiles at the next. Choose the level
where in the beginning it says, "I would have been your daddy" (Assault
On The Control Room). On the difficulty screen, choose legendary. When the level
starts after the introduction sequence, have one of the players quickly press
X when the "Press X to get on the Pelican" message appears. That player
will re-board the ship and start flying with it down the hole. The other player
will quickly die because of the aliens, and will be respawned on the spinning
ring. Make sure to jump where there are gaps. If you are good enough, you can
even jump to a nearby ledge. Additionally, once you are respawned on the ring,
quickly jump off and fall to your death. Sometimes you will be respawned on
the lowest ledge in all the blue haze, and a "Press X to flip the Pelican"
will appear that the top of the screen very briefly.
Covenant dropship
When Covenant dropship is getting ready to unload a group of Covenants, throw
a grenade into the door as it opens. The blast will kill several of the enemies
since they are all in one area.
Defeating Jackels
Use a photon weapon to destroy a Jackel's shield quickly. When you encounter
a Jackel, run up and hit it with your weapon or get out a gun that uses bullets,
not energy.
Defeating Grunts
When the Grunts are sleeping you can beat them to death with the butt of your
gun without waking up any of the other Grunts. You can usually kill a four to
seven of them before an alien spots you. They start sleeping in level 5, Assault
on the Control Room. Just remember not to shoot or they will wake up.
Defeating Flugs
In the later levels of the game you will encounter new enemies called Flugs.
These enemies will be small at first, but they will attack and control anything
alive. Use a shotgun on these baby Flug as they tend to group in large numbers.
By using the shotgun it will send a storm of bullets and kill most of them that
are around. Use a shotgun on the possessed Flug, and it will kill most of them
in one shot. This is made easier by the fact that most of them carry shotguns
Alternate ending
sequence

legendary difficulty setting. The new ending features a human and alien fighting
hand to hand. The human will say "Its over", and then they hug because
they know the explosion will kill them both.
