This is a cheat that i've never read before on any forum .. ever. I didn't want to post it but I just found this site and thought that a good site deserved a good cheat. To do this cheat you can cut the "Assault on the controle room" in half. Location of the cheat: The cheat takes place halfway through "assault on the control room" when you have to climb the ridge after you've gone through the tunnel with the two invisible elites with the plasma sabers. (legendary difficulty) Make sure you have a sniper and a rocket launcher. If you don't go back and get one from the ammo near the tunnel. Once you have finished sniping the covenant at the top of the cliff run back to your left near the tree and arm your sniper. At the other end of the map you should be able to see a banshee. Look throught the structure with the tubes overhead. For all you Halo experts out there this Banshee will attack you once you've passes a certain point. (but you're not going to pass that point) Use your sniper to locate the Banshee (you'll want to hit it so it flips upside down so the elite can't access it) arm your rocket launcher and let fly. The Banshee is now yours, granted you can kill its pilot. Once you've passed that "certain point" you will still be attacked by two ghosts but the banshee will be waiting for your retreival. Once in the Banshee you can use it to fly up and finish the level uncontested. Kind of weird seeing the levels with no enemies.. But efficient. If you want to post this cheat on some other web site, please let them know who found and posted it in the first place. Thank you. Cheat by Matt Atkinson
